The mountain spewed a steady gout of thick, black smoke into the air, turning the sky dark and any light that pierced the haze an ominous red. This volcanic realm was a foul one, the sort of place that most wouldn't have dared venture even remotely close to. Travelers of all sorts gave the land a wide berth, and it was said that even the gods had no sight here. It was a realm of monsters, of demons, of dark creatures not fit for the light of day. The closest thing to man that thrived here was the enormous orc population, and they were a great deal closer to beast than man. Their settlements and villages dotted the blasted landscape, and their patrols regularly rode across the ashen valleys.
Still, she had come. She'd find herself standing at the base of a dark mountain range, ancient and terrible, though not nearly so terrible as the enormous black maw that opened up in the rock. The light only managed to shine a few hundred yards in, and after that it was mysterious, dreadful darkness. Doubtless whatever waited within was foul and well deserving of a good slaying... though none could doubt that she just might be in over her head. Despite the darkness of the entrance, there was plenty of sound to be heard within, and not just the volcanic rumblings of the region. No, there was life in there. Life of all sorts, each fouler than the last.
Dare she enter?
