Re: Chapter 2 - Digging up the Dwarves
The wagons approach through the pass with little problem. Soon it opens up to reveal the bone-white castle that Phineas described. The walls of the castle move away from the walls of the pass at 45 degree angles. As the approach the castle forming an implied X, they curve downward toward an inner circle of a wall that surrounds the castle proper. Four more walls split the difference between those attached to the pass and form a smaller, thinner X. They too curve down toward the central wall.
The castle inside is not exceptionally large, however all the wings, buildings, or whathaveyou surround a central tower that reaches almost to the top of the pass.
Moss covers everything. In the moonlight, the place looks eerie and still. Nothing moves and there is no sounds coming from the castle. Not even the wind blows in the night. The castle looks like nothing more than the long sun-bleached skeleton of a gargantuan monster. A pair of gates nearly as tall as the wall hang open to the courtyard beyond. There doesn't seem to be a way around the castle, only through.
The mountains have begun to diminish and on the other side of the castle are the foothills and open plains, or so Eles claims.
