A Not So Warm Welcome

Oh, hello! I didn’t see you there, dear reader. I was immersed in a deep conversation with my new friend and travel buddy Kai! They joined me on my happy ghast after our paths crossed in the Mangrove Swamp. We had been hoping to find a fossil-filled desert to continue our archeological advancements, but after several days of scouting we had yet to strike gold. It was starting to get a little awkward, to be honest. But then my eagle eyes spotted something almost as good: a big, scary cave!
