Once where Hollinder was now is but a cave filled with powerful magical essence from the great earthen magister, Maze himself. Created by him long in the Reality of old, as the 'Cave Of Wonders' that Hollinder covered, this place radiates mystery and wonder, as stated by its name. When traveling in here, due to the powerful magical flow, it is common for random occurrences to happen in here, both good and bad. There are many rare minerals and jewels deep within the cave, however the deeper you travel, the more random and severe the good and bad occurrences are.
Description
A cave filled with powerful magical essence from the great earthen magister, Maze himself. When traveling in here, due to the powerful magical flow, it is common for random occurrences to happen in here, both good and bad. There are many rare minerals and jewels deep within the cave, however the deeper you travel, the more random and severe the good and bad occurrences are. From the outside, the cave looks small, but within, it's almost like another world entirely. Almost every treasure imaginable can be found, as well as any rare mineral, but there is a price for going in too deep... One may never get out.
History
Created by Maze long ago in the Reality of old, this place radiates mystery and wonder, as stated by its name. It was embedded with the mystic might of his magic, and eventually from that, the tiny cave expanded into what one would think another world. It's almost like this is Maze's maze. (Hahaha). Though he himself is no longer here, his magic has remained due to Khrona's love for his brother. This cave is a memorial to him.
Jaded Depths
One of the many sections of this puzzling cavern which radiates a dim jade light all around when hit with light. This is because, like most of the other portions of the Cave of Wonders, is rich in the specific mineral it is named after. Thus, there is jade all around. (because it's honestly always been my favorite gemstone.)
Twin Paths
A mysterious segment of the Cave of Wonders, where one may walk down two paths; one is that which radiates a warm and inviting red glow, whilst the other radiates a cool and soothing blue glow. Either path can be either good or bad, but both lead somewhere deeper within the cave. It's a fifty-fifty chance of going deeper or getting out. It is said that one may even lead to Maze through the ties to his magic.
Crystal Cavern
The deepest part of the Cave of Wonders, where all of the most valuable treasures lay. It is filled with Khrona's essence, which is why crystal grows here like flowers. The entire chamber gleams with radiant light from the crystals. Each crystal has its own magical potential, though because of this, they are also very dangerous and destructive. They seem to have a hand in the eerie occurrences that happen around the Cave of Wonders, as they absorb quite a bit of magic. Touching them may be good or may be bad. It's a gamble getting treasure from here.
Crystal Chambers
This is a secret entrance into the Crystal City and the Crystal Tree through the Indigorge. It is where Khrona's essence is the most prominent in the entire cave and keeps the entire cave intact through absorption of magic from Maze into the crystals to contain and crystallize this place in memory. Therefore, one can receive magic and other magnificent powers from harvesting the Crystals. This also counts as a backdoor out of the Crystal City of Dawn.[/center]
