Narrator's POV
The young basilisk was tossed up and landed on the platform with a thud and yelped while all the monkeys began going ahead. Vee looks ahead of her before getting up as she stares with slight curiosity before a lion-tailed macaque monkey pushes her forward and chatters as if it was saying 'Keep moving' as Vee and the monkeys begin heading towards an ancient ruin temple's entrance.
Back at the bottom, Syntax stares at the cliff with an uncertain look "Uh..." and then Hyria says "I'll take it from here. You all stay here and I'll get her" but Funneh immediately denied as she says "No, I'm coming. I promised Vulko that I look after her and that's what I'm going to do" and the others nodded in agreement and then Syntax said "It's doable... If I don't have to go too high" and Hyria nods as she says "Good. Let's get going" and starts climbing along with everyone else while Syntax weakly answers "All right".
At the top of the cliff, Vee was still walking as she saw a bunch more monkeys everywhere at the temple's entrance before the same lion-tailed macaque monkey pushed forward again before entering and walked through a dark hallway until she spotted a built-in ruin temple ahead.
On the cliffside, the group was still climbing up as Syntax was struggling before hearing an eagle's screech, making the spider demon whine to himself as he says "A bird. That can't be a good sign" and Draco saw this and called out to the spider demon "Syntax. Look at me. Look at nothing but me. You're doing fine. Just keep your eyes up high" and Syntax says weakly "All right. I'm coming. I'm coming" and he slowly, but continues climbing up before Ally, who was on Strong Spider's back asked in concern "Do you need help?" and Syntax shakes his head while saying "No, no. I'm good... I'm good".
Back at the temple, Vee and the monkeys began walking into the temple as more monkeys were inside. 'Just how many monkeys live here?!' Vee thought to herself as she looked around and saw murals carved on the walls, making the young basilisk stop for a moment before she was pushed forward once more and Vee keeps walking until she stops in the middle where piles of items from the ancient times are everywhere along with piles of fruit and sunlight was shining down as the young basilisk looks up. Vee walks up to a pile of items as she picks up a vintage cowbell and examines it before the young basilisk tries to pull the clapper out, but couldn't and then she starts shaking it as the cowbell makes noises. Suddenly all the monkeys began backing away, making Vee look confuse as she gently puts the cowbell back and looks at the monkeys before a giant arm that came out of the shadows from behind the young basilisk as it grabs a handful of fruit and this caused Vee to turn around and stares at the dark shadow in front of her as she didn't move.
"What part of the forest you from?" the figure in the shadows asked and Vee starts looking around her at the monkeys. "You, man-cub. You come from the south, the a? What part of the forest?" the stranger asks the young basilisk as she realizes the mysterious stranger was talking to her. "The south, I guess" Vee answered unsurely. "Southern forest, the Seeonee. Beautiful, I hear. I've never been there myself. So, tell me, you ever had a taste of the pawpaw fruit down there in the Seeonee? Some people call it the-what's the word? Papaya. Stolen words. I say pawpaw. Goes to the sound it makes when it tumbles to the forest floor" the stranger says before gently tossing a couple of papayas at the young basilisk's feet while saying "Try it" and Vee picks one up as she looks back at the stranger, who says while gesturing her to eat it "Go ahead" and with that, Vee takes a bite of the fruit before saying to the mysterious stranger as she enjoyed the taste "It's good" and then the stranger asked "You know who I am?" and this made Vee shake her head while answering "No".
