As you run towards it, your eyes land upon Silvertwister, who is attempting to fly, a sight that you regularly see. Though you're glad that he's trying to better his ability, you find yourself pushing him to improve his…

The fort isn't the most structurally sound building you've ever been around. But your small frame does little in aiding its downfall. The fort rests on the outskirts of the farm that your parents own, and besides being a looming figure in the distance, you doubt they even know it's there. It seems fairly old, since the stone walls are no longer grey and have quite a bit of discoloration about them, dry shrubbery and weeds clinging to them for both comfort and support. The stone floor is the same color, but is littered with rocks and wildlife. There are a few stairways that are still intact, some leading up and others down.

This isn't your first or even fifth visit; you're used to this place. You know about the tunnels that rest underneath. You know where they lead, as well as the secret rooms where forgotten skulls rest for eternity. You know about the steps that will crack under weight, crashing to the ground and adding to the rubble. You know it all.

Every time you turn around, another extraordinary scene greets you. The changing weather only adds to the experience, making sure that your senses are always refreshed.
