You have climbed slowly down the path from above. You notice that as the ground becomes flat, the dirt trail passes beneath a metal arch and the path becomes a narrow street of carved obsidian.
You approach the arch and notice that the mithril has become surrounded by red lightning. As you slowly step under the archway, the lightning flares and dies. You step out onto the smooth balck road and realize that the arch must be a container of some dark magic, used to keep the unwanted at bay.
You look ahead and see that the road goes straight towards the foot of the mountain upon which the dragon you saw landed. Hewn into the rock is a great gaping portal, the gates of steel and adamantine laying open on either side. Outside this door stand two of the tall guards you saw earlier. The road branches off to your left, running to what appears to be a crude arena to the north. Both roads promise the split hope of fortune and death, and so you calm yourself and walk down...
