"Perhaps..."
[b]Jeremiah began walking, but the suddenly stopped.
The wolves could be heard, their howls echoing through the cave. [/b]
"It seems they went through Terry. We must hurry."
[b]The large Knight broke into a jog, going through the cave [/b]

Vince quickly followed, nearly carrying the exhausted Altar.
-
[b]The trio entered an even larger cavern than the first one, with a built-in castle that lay in the ice. Jeremiah started towards this castle, entering through the main gates and than shopping to wait for the others [/b]
-
They followed. "What is this?"
-
"Seems like a... Castle built into the ice. The craftsmanship is incredible." [b]Jeremiah began pushing one of the gates closed, as the wolves came into view [b][i][u]Chapter Three: Buried Alive [/u][/i][/b] The gates were closed, and the wolves were kept out, clawing at the door hopelessly. Jeremiah took a step back, admiring the courtyard castle gates [/b] "Who could've done this?"
-
"I don't know." Altar sat at the wall, nearly falling asleep. "Remind me to never teleport three people that exactly ever again."
-
"Do you need some rest? We could always take a break if you needed to."
-
"I could certainly use one." Altar replied. "A rest would be wise."
-
[b]Jeremiah leaned against the gates, slumping downwards into a sitting position [/b]
-
They rest. A time skip occurs.
-
[b]After a bit, Jeremiah rose from the ground and nudged Altar with his foot. The scratching had stopped, as well as the growling. The wolves were gone [/b] "It is time to continue."
-
Rested, the two get up and follow Jeremiah.
-
[b]In the distance was a large castle like structure made entirely out of ice. Jeremiah started towards the castle, examining it [/b] "Hm..."
-
Vince walks up next to him. "What's the plan?"
-
"The castle. The three of us must siege that place."
-
"Alright. We're ready."
-
"Any suggestions on how we siege the castle? Surely it will not be easy."
-
"We could try to sneak in."
-
"The odd thing is... It does not seem that this castle contains any life." [b]Jeremiah pointed towards the castle, from which an eerie silence escaped [/b]
-
Vince walked forward. "Strange."
-
"Perhaps we could simply enter the castle?"
-
"Let's try it."
-
[b]Jeremiah walked towards the castle, placing his hand on the hilt of his blade [/b]
-
They follow, their own weapons at the ready.
-
[b]The trio entered a strange courtyard, leading deeper into the castle. Along one of the archways sat a singular solitary Knight [/b] Vince https://imgur.com/a/MDG4l [i]"Doth thou understand, being late?"[/i] "Hawkwood..." [i]"Doth thou understand?" [/i] "Yes... I suppose we do." [i]"Then thou will understand. Lord Kross is gone." [/i]

"So what now?" Vince asked.
