The uncomfortable silence prevailed and IĀ only imagined creepy sounds in my head and that wasn't all. I had never been to that part of the palace. I never knew it existed until then.
The horror I felt when I looked down the stairs, the long way downward gave me immediate goosebumps, and the pictures of dead rulers that stared at us felt too real to be considered just a normal painting on the wall.Ā
The smell of dust filled the air and cobwebs were spread across every corner by hardworking spiders which proved how long that place had been kept a secret to not just me but a lot of people in the palace.
When we got lower, I was tempted to ask questions, and my inquisitive self struggled to hold back, we picked two other torches along the way, and it got brighter but that didn't make me less terrified.
