As I reached the end of the cave, I found myself confronted by a fork in the path. Behind me, I could faintly make out Kyle and Miu’s voices.
“Miu, is it possible for you to summon a little heat? A small wind to chase away the dampness would do,” Kyle requested.
“I don’t know, Mister. The last time I tried, Noa caught a cold,” Miu responded hesitantly.
“When did this happen?”
The playful bickering faded as I surveyed the two passages in front of me. While the left side was drenched in darkness, a hint of light seemed to peek through the tunnel on the right. As I squinted in concentration, the gleam of metal tracks embedded in the cave’s floor slowly became revealed.
“Tracks! That’s got to be the way out of here!” I exclaimed hopefully.
