Just ten more steps[/it]. Myryan climbed up the sharp rocks. It was hard and her claw served her well. It was reckless to try to climb the Ashhills and yet there she was, counting the number of steps she was making.
There was but one reason that could make the young lady try something as crazy as that: treasure! ... And adventure, of course. When she heard that bard talking of a lost treasure in the mountains, she had to learn more about it. It was randomly, as she was looking at things in a market, that she found an old map of the area indicating the entrance of a cavern in the mountains. Surely this was where the treasure was hidden! The map in hand, she walked to long way to the south-west.
Myryan pushed one last time her body as she climbed onto the small ledge. "Now where could it be?" she said aloud. She gazed all around the rocks, looking away only to see the map and try to locate herself. "It should be here..." she told as a frown formed. But no, no cave, not hole. Nothing that could show the entrance of a secret passage. She frowned more, getting worried. Did she climbed the wrong cliff? She sure hoped no one went it here before her.
It was only then that she noticed some small writings at the bottom of the map. Oh, no! This map was made one hundred and thirty years ago! Of course she couldn't see a cave. Rocks probably fell down and blocked the way. Myryan sat down on the ledge and hit it with her fist. She was so close of a great fortune and she got beaten by a century. |

Maeve had been looking, once again for a missing ingredient for her potions. This time, she had to fly above another hill. She didn’t mind those though-it was fun! Not to add that the view when you were standing on the top of the hills was just amazing! She grinned at the thought as she landed on it. Now, all she needed to do was to find a little cave, where the plant was supposedly there.
Being in her tiny size, it wouldn’t be too hard for her to find a plant wouldn’t it? At least, she hoped so, she didn’t want to spend a whole day looking for it while she could spend it working on potions-and try to survive by not killing herself either at that matter!
The little fairy giggled and soon enough she found that one cave she had been looking for (it wasn’t a cave…it was just a whole in a pile of rock, but since she was little…it looked more of a cave to her than a normal human would). She wasn’t aware that there was someone else around here and just continued her way, until she stopped finding the plant. Ah! There it was!
She had that satisfied smile plastered onto her lips-heh, she had been there once, it was logical for her that she had found that plant so quickly! She went to pick it and was about to get out of the little cave but she froze hearing huge footsteps, the ground trembling under her feet. “WAAAAAAAAH…” she said not knowing that it was a human approaching to her hiding spot.

Myryan was a little desperate to find the cave. A treasure, come on! She walked around, helping herself with her metallic claws. She was looking for an entrance in the rock. It had to be there somewhere.
As she climbed the dangerous cliffs, Myryan thought hearing a sound. She stopped herself, all ears. But there was no sound anymore. She frowned. What could have made it? Not a rock, it doesn't make a somewhat screaming noise when falling. She looked around but no one was there. No animal nor human. Perhaps it was inside the ground?
Myryan, thinking perhaps that was it, that her 'cave' might be below her, looked frenetically around in search of a hole. And she found one. Oh small, she could put only a hand in it. But she could easily open the entrance some more and see what was inside.
A grin plastered on her face, Myryan found a steady enough spot next to the hole and starting pulling off some rocks.
