Moving swiftly down the darken corridor, I suddenly saw a glimmer of light in the darkness. Hastily moving towards this very dim glimmer of hope, it glowed brighter as I moved closer. The sounds behind me seemed to have stopped but I was not taking any chances. Closer and closer to this sole glimmer of hope. What will I find there ? It has to be better then the darkeness I was in.
The light grew brighter and brighter. Finally I reached the door where the light was coming from. As I peaked around the corner, I saw what looked like another lounge with walls of book cases. The light came from a lone candle on a writing table. What was this candle doing here ? There was no one or nothing around. Who lit this candle ? What were they doing here ?
Slowly I gathered myself and entered the room. A splendid looking room which seemed to belong to a scholar of some sorts. There seemed to be a scroll on the table. I ventured nearer to take a look.
"I fear that the curse has taken its hold on the mansion. Unearthly creatures roam the grounds and it is only a matter of time that they enter the mansion. The only way to stop this lies within the secret room that grandfather spoke about. Tis my hope that I will be succesful in my quest else I will leave this in a hope someone else will be able to undertake this frightful task and finally rid this place of the curse. My first clue is the sun rises where the moon sleeps."
What can this all mean ? It would seem that whoever wrote this may not have succeeded. Looks like some how this burden was being passed to me. How did I get this responsibility ? Who decided ?
As I sat down to digest what this all meant, I heard another noise coming from where I had been. I better get my head straight and think of where to find this room for whatever that was making that noise is surely going to be heading down this way at any time. If I don't figure a way out of this...NO I need to find a way out of this.
Looking around, I thought, it must start from this room as the writer must have left on his search from here. What was that clue ? ".. the sun rises where the moon sleeps." What in the world does that mean ?
