Chapter - 84
With a sense of wonder and adventure, Rick stepped onto the wooden platform and followed the path to the center of the river, where the mysterious black path had emerged. The rabbit, always up for an adventure, had gracefully hopped down from the tree and tagged along with Rick on this captivating journey.
Rick wrinkled his brow, his emotions caught between skepticism and fascination. "Who would go to all this trouble to stash a cave under a river, and what kind of secrets could it be harboring?" As they drew near the black platform, Rick caught sight of something entirely unexpected.
It wasn't a platform after all; it was an entrance. A flight of stairs descended into the abyss, shrouded in darkness. The notion that someone had gone to such great lengths to cloak a cave beneath the river filled Rick with a potent blend of curiosity and thrill.
