Thunder Dome What is beauty?

wow, sorry!! I forgot about this ^^; mind if we assume it's closer to present? It was an awkward timeline point I think

Maia's spirits were looking up as she got past her baggage and kept on keepin on, but she still figured a little space might do her some good! She'd never been much of a wanderer back home mainly because her sense of direction was pretty notoriously awful, but there was a definite perk to living on the tallest mountain in the area.  As long as she didn't stray too far, it would be pretty hard to lose track of the way back.

The valley she had passed through was gorgeous, but now she was at another mountain and had decided to go for a climb.  Thank goodness they lived on the tallest one, right? She remembered cursing the number of mountains in this place back when she was searching for Moonspear and laughed.  At least that she could look back and laugh on.

By the time she spotted the cavern, her mood had improved right up, to the point where she approached it with her usual brazen openness.  "Helloooo" she called, peering in as the sound reverberated a bit.  Righteous, this place looked awesome!
