Captain Moed, feeling the rocking on top, Founders Seek looks towards the horizon of Erpath as he witnesses towards the west of the island a small sandstorm appears and what was beneath it slowly rises to a ruin then appears after the sandstorm dissipates.
"Topp, Paze quickly gather everyone"
"Yes Captain" they said in unison as they both left Founders Seek for a moment to gather the others at the celebration.
Meanwhile at the celebration the others are feeling the aftermath of the quake that had unfortunately both disrupted the anniversary and Semya's speech until the others sees Topp and Paze waving at them.
"What is it this time?" Sally was furious as they all approached them.
"Tts the Captain there's something forming west from the island"
"Something forming?" Luughead being confused
"No time quickly followed us" the whole crew began to follow the twins.
Semya sees them leaving the ceremony early while the villagers are trying to help each other "I need to help the people of Erpath"
But was then stopped by Chief Mazof "no Semya your duty is with Founders Seek. Please you can trust me"
"Alright. I hope you're right."
Semya jumps off the podium and runs off to meet up with the other crew members as they head towards the west side of Erpath, to their eyes they witness a ruin below them "hey Topp, what's going on exactly"
"We don't know? The Captain didn't told us the whole idea" "he just wanted to bring you all to him."
Then suddenly Captain Moed is then seen near the ruins investigating the entrance while waiting for his crew, he then sees his crew walking towards him "you all here"
"Captain, we have a lot of questions"
"I know. It has to do with the ruins in front of us" then Captain Moed pulls on the door it opened "if we know exploring ruins, and the dangers that may come. Twins, Narrow, Kalkeck you're on watch duty till we come back everyone else come with me"
"Yes Captain" as his crew all said in unison. Onto what lies into the ruins walking through the markings on the wall the further they went through the ruins the more mysterious it gets, they all see many messages.
"Hey Stowaway can you read this" Sally tries to ask politely Semya tries to observe and read the encryption but could get a single word from the ruins.
He shook his head "no it seems to be written in another language that I am not nor my village are familiar with"
"So does that mean we all discovered an undiscovered ruins with language we don't know about!"
"Luughead knock it off don't make everyone nervous"
"Sorry Sally, I do sometimes get nervous when we discover something new"
"Sure you do"
Then suddenly they all see doors leading towards somewhere they are not aware of yet "could this be a dead end" one crew member asked curiously
"Why would it be a dead end if there are clearly more doors"
"Enough everyone there are clear three open doors for us to navigate. Sally, Morris, Nelson your group one. Luughead, Vaughn, Bolo your group two. Semya, and Milo you're with me let go everybody".
As the others head towards the doors that they were instructed by Captain Moed, Semya, Milo and Captain Moed went into the door they need to go. When they head towards door three they've encountered more writing around the room, then suddenly meeting up with a tomb and a book on top of the tomb "is there something valuable with that book"
"Let me check it out" Captain Moed then grabs to book from atop the tomb.
"You two can look around this area, I need to look at this book" as Captain Moed begins to read the book, Semya and Milo search around the room, they only find a lot of encryption.
"Hey Semya, you said that your people warship this Dragon Keeper fellow what was he like" Milo asked curiously.
"Of course to start off he was filled with wisdom and he was very powerful too" "sounds like he's not even human. Or the other way around"
"Well he always wears a mask so no one in the village would witness his true face"
"That is suspicious on so many seas"
"Perhaps there is something to do with the tomb"
"Do you think we should open it?"
"I don't think that would be a wise idea. It could be cursed after all" as they both observe the tomb they notice that it had the design on a dragon.
"Hey Semya if this tomb had the head of a dragon. Could it be that only the Dragon Keeper may open it"
"I'm not entirely sure but let's go ask the Captain". Semya and Milo go and look for Captain Moed and sees his sitting on a chair reading the book they found "does that book give any information Captain"
"Indeed Milo. The book here said that two hundred years ago a fierce battle was once fought and the assailant was sealed"
"sealed? If someone was sealed then where's the tomb?" As they all look towards the centre of the room the witness where the tomb is located, it is in front of them all.
