Sunspire Mountains the marauder's map

No worries. ^_^

Her sister's name had scarcely left her lips before a girlish scream, followed by a soft thump and a quiet groan, answered her. "You okay?!" young Osprey questioned, squinting at the grainy image of her fallen sister. At least Saēna's white fur made her slightly easier to see in the dimness. She touched her nose to Saēna's neck, relieved when she felt like a small wolf and not a pile of crushed bones and pulpy internal organs.

"I dunno," Osprey answered Saēna's question, "but there's only one way to go..." She motioned toward the distant keyhole of light, then realized there was no way Saēna could see her. "See the light up there? There's only one thing that makes light: the sun. That must be the end of the tunnel," the would-be Outrider said optimistically.

Moving ahead, Junior encouraged Saēna to, "Hold onto my tail if you want," and began to pad slowly forward. The small bead of light grew in size and it surprised her when Osprey eventually realized that it wasn't white or yellow, like sunlight, but a strange greenish color. She wetted her dried lips, feeling intrigued but wary, and continued creeping closer. In addition to the dripping, she swore she also heard a faint sloshing, not unlike the waves on a beach. It seemed to be... echoing.

At length, the pinprick of light became a halo, then took on more detail. Junior eventually made it out: a doorway. It was roughly shaped like a triangle. When they finally reached it, it proved to be narrow. An adult would have trouble squeezing through such a narrow slit, yet Junior and Saēna easily slipped through.

The sight that greeted them on the otherside utterly flabbergasted the little Outrider. "Whoa! Holy crap!" she said, her voice echoing loudly in the enormous natural grotto. "How the heck did this get here?!" she asked excitedly, looking at Saēna, who often knew things she didn't. "It's like an underground lake. Hey, look!" She thrust her black muzzle toward the ceiling, which was covered in wicked stalactites. "This is sooo coooool! We found the coolest place on earth, Saēna!"
