Descending earth, 22
* Ress looked up at this towering yet overgrown structure, the size of one of his Manses. He marveled at its grand first age craftsmanship.... yet wondered why it existed... and more importantly... what is inside? It appeared on his map.. but it had no title.. but it was clearly a building from what the map said. Taking a few steps back, a flash of light shot from his right bracer, expelling his trusty bow. He grabbed an arrow and took aim, blasting an essence charged arrow into the broad side of the structure.The arrow hit the plateau and immediately became a vine full of plump, juicy, purple grapes. Ress gritted his teeth as he grabbed every last arrow in his quiver and began shooting them all at the impervious "mountain" before him. The emperor panted, having exhausted both his essence and his arrows on trying to crack open the thing that stood before him.. but there was not a crack on it... simply enough grapes to keep a whole city in wine for a few weeks. He shook his head, seeing his failure yet again*..." There are many secrets yet, young Solar... but I will reveal this only to the loyal..." * he sighed as he repeated the quote... but a smile crossed his face as his gaze turned upward to the top of the plateau* " Then I'll find them all myself.... I have a long exalted life ahead of me... and I just don't see you fitting into it.....bang" * he chuckled, remembering this particular quote, which brought him hope.. of which he took with his back to his Manse*
