Finding a abandoned village

Having traveled for six more hours he decided that he was going to rest and stop here next to this river he came upon as he was tired and wanted to stop for the day. 'Hopefully I won't run into any trouble tomorrow as I just want to travel and take in the scenery.'

Cedric wakes up in the morning hearing birds chirping over head, and water rushing from the river. He packs up his stuff and starts off again he new which defection to go since he mark a tree which his sharp rock.

As he walks he notices the forest becomes darker in an eerie kind of way he starts to notice what looks like a path to his right and contemplates on wether or not to see where it leads to or just stay on the plan of going straight tords the mountain.

' I can always just come back to here after seeing where this trail leads to.' So he decides to go see where the trail leads to. The trail looks like it had been traveled through a lot as the leaves and vegetation was all beaten down.

As he walks along he sees blood on the trail he was walking along he ends up at the entrance of a village but the blood stops at the entrance where someone had dragged them selves to. He enters the village and looks around but besides the body nobody was there. He also noticed that there wasn't anything there in terms of valuables or stuff. He looked around and saw cages one was open there was something in it and there was a huge snake that had the same eyes of the creature he came upon in that field the snake was as big as a bus.

The snake like creature lifted its head up and looked at him and stared at him Cedric looked behind the snake like creature and their was was another one. He thought about releasing them but remembered what happened in the field so he was hesitant.

He walked closer to the cage to get a better look at it and the first one had charcoal black scales while the other one had an grayish color to its scales. The two just stared at him not making any movements or any reaction. Which was starting to freak him out a little because he expected the creatures to have some sort of reaction.

Then when he started to step away to leave they started to hiss at him so he looked back at them and moved back forwards them a little which caused them to stop. Then they continued to stare at him again emotionless.

He wondered what they would do if he let them out. He didn't want to have them attack and be potentially eaten by them. Curiosity got the better of him even though it was a potentially bad decision and his last.... so he opened the cages the snakes moved tords him and stopped right in front of him. He got a notification from his system- "congratulations you have now subjugated these cold blooded beasts and are now loyal to you."

' what this is even possible why didn't they eat me?' He didn't mind this though as of now he has companions to keep him company and protect him. So he went back to the trail since their wasn't anything else there but their was a some sort of flute on the mans body at the entrance so he took it with him. Who knows he might just teach himself how to use it so he entertain himself.

Once he got back to where he was before he started on his journey again onwards to the mountain.
