At the end of the tunnel was a small landing that overlooked a lake of partially liquid lava. That was the glow that he had seen from the entrance, and the aura in here was pure fire magic.
After the world had been remade, there was nobody left alive with the strength to finish the process and smooth out the distribution of the Elements, and this place had been left as a repository of intense Fire Magic. It would be an incredible spot for others to come study, and for Witches or Demons with an affinity for Fire, awakening their powers here or just meditating for a few days would cause their aptitude to break through to a higher level without causing any negative effects on the volcano.
A location as powerful as this should have some sort of guardian, most likely a beast that had been absorbing the Fire Elemental power, but Wolfe didn't sense anything at all. There were no signs of use in the tunnel, no claw marks, bedding or other signs of inhabitants.
