It was a quiet morning. The weather was a bit chilly, a slight mist was falling over the rocky wastelands between the Clover Kingdom and Diamond Kingdom. On this rocky wasteland, a lone man was traveling. The man was tall and slim, in the prime of his youth, with medium white hair of flawless purity, red ruby eyes that could pierce through any darkness, a light beige, but spotless skin, and a face of a fallen angel. He was quite fancily dressed into a white shirt, with a white tie over his neck. That shirt is being covered with a light grey vest, which has a low cut V neck. Simple light grey pants and black gloves. As for footwear, he was wearing black boots that went over the pants up to half of his calves. And over all that, he was wearing a blue with purple tints coat that had golden trims and details. Unlike the vest, the coat was open and was kept together by a golden chain at the chest region. On his left hip there was a black leather square bag which was sustained by his belt, under the blue coat, which was holding his grimoire. And with a map in his hands. But suddenly, a dust storm hits the man. He covers his face with his hands, and wanders around the storm for 5 minutes before finding himself in an unknown place.
While scouting the landscape, the man named Mikael could see that there was no more mist or dust storms, big cliffs, canyons and even natural stone pillars and archways. A few small rivers, going downstream, and in the center of it all, a humongous stone structure. This mammoth of architecture looked like a leaned stone tower. The strong mana zone seem to have it's epicenter in that tower. It is the source of all. Checking again the map, Mikael confirms that this is indeed the place. Some time ago, several reports about people and magic knights missing came. And what all of these reports had in common was that they all disappeared in the same place. While Mikael is not a Magic knight, being one of the higher noble families does have some benefits. One of them being the access to a lot of information. The young wizard did some research before coming, and he found something very similar in some old legends. Apparently some strong magic zone have their origin in the prehistoric time. Some structures are so ancient that they can be full of fossilized treasure or even extinct creatures.
This particular dungeon seemed to fit the description. And once again, Mikael's curiosity and thirst for knowledge got the better of him. He did research as much as he could about ancient life on these plains. And then he got himself a map of the Fringe and went on an expedition to search this place. Of course before doing so, he did send a notice to the Magic knights about this dungeon to send someone to investigate. His plan was to use the magic knights to gain access to the area legally, and join as a civilian supporter. It was not unheard of for Magic Knights to employ the help of civilians in various missions, after all. As he stands before the humongous stone structure, Mikael scans the environment once again, trying to see if he missed anything. Approaching the tower he does notice that the structure was claimed by nature, and a lot of plants, like vines and moss, started to cover it. Looking at the entrance of the dungeon as it is covered in green vines, the man thinks about how he could clear this. He doesn't have any slashing weapon, or magic that does this. He could always use his golems though. But after considering all things, he decided to wait a bit more for the Magic Knights to arrive. After all, he did inform them, and was also a request from the Famous or Infamous Blake family.
As such, Mikael Started to study the door and the structure in the meantime, looking for any inscriptions, hieroglyphs, or anything of archaeological value, preoccupying himself in the meantime, until the reinforcements arrive.
