The Key of Avarice Pt.2

The second floor was far more empty and yet far more alive.

Most of the halls were empty save for a few servants dutifully cleaning portraits and other such vanities.

Despite the lack of real people, just by looking at these portaits Nick was indulged in the rich history of Eilanderil. Centuries of nobles and squires alike lined the walls. Different eras passed him like a blur.

And then, in the end, there was nothing left. Nothing more than a singular door.

The butler turned with a smile before opening it. Just like before, the other side was completely dark for now. Moments after entering, that would change.

Taking a deep breath, Nick prepared to obtain the first Token of Annihilation, the Key of Avarice.

...

On the other side was just a simple human surrounded by 3 servant girls. A dwarf, an orc, and an elf.
