Kaliv nodded, entering the cave. Stretching and controlling his beathing, he didn't like dark spaces, regardless weather or not he had a light - it was just one of the things he had come to accept back at his homley palace where candle-light was allways available. He heard the northlanders had an ingenous invention that generated light through a wind-up mechanisim. He would have to travel there and see it one day.
The cave seemed less... entrancing than the last one. Dampness hung heavily in the air, a few bats skittered overhead. Though Kaliv had seen scarier things in a cave. His heart suddenly felt laden with guilt as his mind drifted to Lilan once more. He pushed her forcefully from his thoughts, trying to focus on other things.
