Our group ventured into the cave with our weapons drawn, ready for an ambush.

To our surprise there was no attack. In fact the only thing within this cave was a series of tables, shelves, lines with books, scrolls, and instruments. Each was covered in mold and dust, broken bottles littered the floor. But there wasn't a single person around.

The area had the appearance of a laboratory or some sort of research facility.

We wandered around carefully for awhile.

"Do you see anything," I asked.

Both Suna and Mani shook their heads. They both seemed hesitant to even touch anything.

Unable to figure it out I pulled out the guide to see what was said.

"Sis, Tsubasa!" Mani called out to me, "over here!"

Both of us came over to were Mani was standing he pointed at a bookcase.

"Something's off," he said, "I can feel cold air right here."

I reached down and held up my hand in front of it. I could feel a cold air emanating from it.

Blasted bookcase with psychic energy. It faded away disappearing into nothing.

"It was an illusory wall," I said under my breath.
