*Warlock Holmes levitated down from a portal he opened. Wearing a old and worn down suit and a fancy new purple cloak around his shoulders.*
“Questions later investigations first. I love myself some magical residue” he says
[spoiler]am I too late?[/spoiler]

(Nope! I should also get around to everyone else tho.) *The guards have been killed. They were unceremoniously left to rot.*
-
“Make a mental Note to have someone bury those later” he says to himself before levitating inches off the ground through the cave.
-
*There is a barrier made of purple mist inside the cave. It doesn’t stop you but it is clearly magic.*
-
“Interesting. But I have little time to spare” I am going to poke the barrier with a magical stick to see if it reacts.
-
*It parts slightly. It doesn’t seem to be doing a ton on the surface.*
-
*casting a detect magic spell on the stick to see if it did something below the surface*
-
The small trace of magic you find is a simple date. It is millions of years away from this time period.
-
*away in the future or the past?
-
Past.
-
Interesting. I am going to create a portal on the other side of the barrier and throw a stick In to see if there is anything blocking teleportation.
-
*The portal just doesn't open. The magic won't let you open it.*
-
“Great” i say sarcastically. I am going to look around for hidden thinks.
-
*Something within shakes. The barrier destabilizes and begins to restabilize. Nows your chance!*
-
*i am going to bolt forwards past the barrier as quickly as possible*
-
*You get past! There is a massive cavern ahead. You see a path that leads through a tunnel.*
-
*thinking that there might be people in trouble ahead I levitate quickly down the tunnels*
-
*There is a beautiful temple. It has walls made of sun shards and hundreds of visible rooms. There is a very clear path to a stairwell.*
-
“Wow this is nice. I would love to study but I don’t have time” I say. I levitate up towards the stairwell and levitating upwards.
-
*as you go ahead you find yourself in a long hallway with some branching rooms. Along the hall is a massive hole in the floor. A woman is studying something on the other side of the pit.*
-
*i am going to look down the branching hallways to see whats in there. Each time i move i do it quickly while levetating a couple inches off the ground trying to get my cloak to dramatically move.* “Greetings there!” I call out to the figure
-
*The first room contains a map of the multiverse. The next contains a set of orbs hooked to a device. As you cross the pit you see the woman is studying a gateway studded with sunshards.* “Who are you?”
-
“Holmes, Warlock Holmes at your service.” While speaking i take mental notes and ‘photos’ of the map and the device to remind myself to come back later.
-
“Do you wish to try and conquer us too?”
-
“Conquer? No! I am a scholar. A professor of the known universe so to say. Why would I conquer? Sure if you are trying to destroy this dimension i will have to stop you that being my duty. But never in my rightful pnon possesed mind would I enjoy conquering”
-
“Oh. That’s good. So what brings you to our temple of the ancients? We just discovered it.”
