Emerald Option Aa: Go In the Tunnel
Welcome back for the end of Esther’s adventure. The vote to explore down the tunnel was unanimous! Let’s hope the ghosts are friendly =)
Emerald Option Aa: Go In the Tunnel
The ghost is good enough to let you live, so you step toward the tunnel.
Then the man says, “you will need this,” and the man hands you a lantern.
“Thank you,” you say.
“And good luck,” the man says.
The tunnel is dark so you light the lantern the man gave you.
Then you hear a sound that makes you shiver all over.
Then a bat comes flying at your face!!! Startled, you drop the lantern, making everything go dark. You try to keep going but you trip on a rock, causing you to fall. You hit your head on another rock hard enough to make you go unconscious.
You wake up feeling dizzy. You stay on the ground for a while to think and you start to remember what happened. You get up to look for your lantern but you fail to find it in the dark, so you continue down the passage for what seems like hours and you finally see a light in the distance. You run toward it.
When you get there, you find a door. You go in and see six letters on a table in the center of the room. You walk to the table and read:
Alcor,
You know the risk, you will come, I know you will.
Yours, Ema
Ema,
I can’t come, so sorry.
Your friend, Alcor
Alcor,
Why can’t you come?
Ema
Ema,
Don’t tell anyone this, but I’ve been crowned king!
Alcor
Alcor,
Oh my gosh! What happened?
Ema
Ema,
Adine was murdered by Adum.
Alcor
You see a box in the far corner of the room. Curious about what’s inside it, you run over and open it. Inside is the emerald! You put it in your bag and go back to the tunnel and begin the journey back to your new ghost friends. When you get to the spot where you fell, your toe hits something hard. You stop to grab it and find it is your lantern. When you reach the end, you see the man and boy.
The boy asks, “are you ok? What happened?”
“Yes, I’m ok, I’ll tell you about it another time. Right now I need to talk to… what’s your name again?”
“Oh yes, my name is Atum and this is Marco. How are you feeling?” Says the elder of the two ghosts.
“I’m-”
You are cut short by a girl ghost who says, “Atum, who’s this?” And she points a finger at you.
“This is the one you spoke of,” Atum says
“Oh, do you have it?” The girl asks, shocked.
“Who are you?” You shoot back ignoring her question.
“Oh fine, I’m Ema and these are my brothers.”
“Atum, did you kill a guy named Aline?” You ask.
“No, I didn’t kill Adine. Why do you ask?” Atum replies.
Not sure how to respond, you turn to Ema and say, “You might want these letter I found.”
“Thank you,” Ema says.
“I really probably should head back now, the Queen will be worried.”
“Okay, we’ll see you some other time,” Atum says.
“Bye!” Marco says.
You walk to your horse and ride home. The queen is overjoyed with the return of the emerald. You, unfortunately, never find out how Adine got killed.
The End
Yay! You succeeded in your mission. Well done =)
Thank you, Esther, for sharing!
The adventure will take a week’s break and then we’ll be back to the usual adventures starting on the 5th of April. (Oh no! you’ll have to deal with my writing again =) ) I’m working on one beauty right now that involves memories and marbles. It’s going to be a lot of fun.
So, until then, blessings and have an amazing week,
Jennifer
