Lapras begins the long trip back to Sahra Town as Team Omega Seekers enters the mystery dungeon...
The entrance to the ruins is nestled among the rocks, the black doorway almost seeming to invite everyone inside. The closer everyone gets, the stronger the 'encouragement' to enter seems to get...
...and upon entering, a stone door slams shut behind the party, sealing them inside! It's pitch black at first, until torches on the walls begin lighting up by themselves one by one, illuminating the hallway that Team Omega Seekers has found themselves in. The torches eventually stop lighting themselves at a certain point, leaving the hallway beyond in darkness.
(The door that just shut is in the bottom left corner of this tile)
Something about the look of this hallway's details...it's different from the architecture the party has seen so far. Small alcoves where the torches are located dot the walls periodically, usually alternating with stone pillars that slightly protrude from the walls and support the ceiling above. Small plants can be seen growing through cracks in the stone walls, and moss can be occasionally seen hanging on the walls as well. The dirt floor has many patches of greenery growing in many places as well, and bits of stone that are clearly pieces of collapsed ceiling and chipped walls also litter the floor in some places.
Something about this place feels...old, and distinct.
And most of all...
...mysterious...

Karen looks around, very curious, her shiny sparkles glimmering more than usual in the strange torchlight. She doesn't seem at all concerned that a door just shut behind them seemingly of its own accord.
"Wow...this place...it feels so old...and it looks nothing like the buildings in town...who do you guys think built this place?"
