Already loaded with the group inside the wagon, the individual causes his horse to start walking.
The man gets in the wagon and begins to pass through the foothills of the mountain.
In the middle of a cracked mountain, there is a cave, the man directs his wagon into it.
The cave widens as it enters, the chamber is wide, at the top of the cave, by a fissure, light is reached to cast and under that light you can see a small cenote (groundwater lake), the water is crystal clear, the man approaches the wagon to the shore of the cenote, using the spell of levitation, places with a single movement , the bodies across the small lake formed as clock hands, are still unconscious.
Gradually they go down to be on the water, despite this, they do not sink, they float on the surface.
The man enters the water, walks touching the surface without sinking, heads towards the center of the cenote where the equipment is scattered, the man, makes the tip of his fingers shine and raises his hand, directs a spell towards the roof of the cavern, this when touching the ceiling, scatters, falling on the group in the form of dust of light.
The man says they're there to pass a test, their fight will be an internal struggle.
He speaks loudly and earnestly, but to unconscious team members, in a kind voice.
It apologizes in advance, only that, this test is necessary, it is well known that hurting the body is painful and human beings can die... but... hurt the soul, it can kill the whole essence of a living being... face themselves, face their fears or their greatest desires.
Is what will check if they are prepared to face ISSA.
This is actually your only way out... otherwise, they will never wake up... they're all immersed in a dream.
The first to appear in a temple is INKU, he is located in the ESCRIBANO temple, where there are wooden buildings with sliding doors that can be trancarized with a wood, inside, the wooden and paper walls that are traditional in the temples are used.
The appearance of INKU, his body is younger (about 10 years old), he sees his companions (other children of the temple) and his teachers, he feels confused, he knows within himself, that this is not possible... when teachers assign tasks to them at the end of class, he still doubts what to do, his teacher approaches him.
He calls him by name, INKU looks at him with a touch, his teacher tells him that he must show dedication.
He invites him to go with his companions to fulfill the task they were given, which was to lay the new scrolls while others fold the ones that are ready to roll.
INKU with a slight smile, obeys your master, doubt, if it is a memory... tries to locate the time it happened.
His mind is numb with taste.
He enters one of the rooms and is affectionately received by the teachers and students he sees, it is the classroom, after a while of practicing calligraphy in papyrus, there is a movement between the halls, it is an alert, monks announce to the halls an alarming situation, the ladea at the foot of the temple is being attacked, as an asthma attack , INKU remembers everything, knows what day it is, his agitated breathing prevents him from breathing properly, the companions and the same with some teachers run towards the entrance of the temple, they are receiving in the temple the villagers (from the village at the foot of the temple) who, come to take refuge since their home was attacked, there are fires in the village under the mountain.
They help them carry their children and elders for a walk, they have closed the doors, in the village that some teachers and guards have left to face the threat, the mercenaries.
Some teachers set students apart, they will be the last barrier of mercenaries over villagers, although in their temple, their fort is not the art of struggle, they know how to defend themselves.
Although, with the power the thugs have gained, they know for sure whether they will succeed in stopping them.
They calm people down a little bit, they'll defend people from invaders.
Outside the halls, you hear fighting noises, explosions and screams, INKU realizes that the same thing is happening as in the past.
Fires to buildings are not kept waiting, which burn fast due to the material from which they are made in addition to the materials within them.
They start wanting to break the door with a big log that they're loading and banging the door with the trunk.
And on the walls are climbing climbing mercenaries, they, adults and young people, are still struggling with all their might, but the invading force is great.
