wakan tipi [part four]

WARNING: ADVENTURE @ YOUR OWN RISK

I was inside the sacred cave Wakan Tipi

I started walking though the cavern. The air was dank and  cool. The cave was dimly lit by shafts of light that emanated from openings in the wall. I crept by a few of the openings.

Soon enough, the cave became more expansive and the floor was wetter. This section was bright, mossy, and jeweled. I believe this is where the industrialists came and hollowed out a tunnel straight through the rocky cave for the old rails.

I continued walking and the path forked. I went one way but I came to a mysterious dead end. I stopped here because the water was dark and an unknown depth. Perhaps the great spirit was sealed by the industrialists behind this wall?

I came across a creepy snake as I stalked through the cavern. I threw a rock at it after snapping a pic and it slithered off into the darkness.

Eventually I found an exit. It had been covered with an iron fence.

I ripped my shirt on it when I tried to sneak by…

…I did manage to squirrel my way around though.

As I examined the exit, I noticed someone had left an offering on the gate. What mysteries does Wakan Tipi still hold?

I stepped away from the cave…

…and admired the cliffs nearby.

The sandstone walls of the cliff was covered in carvings.

I enjoyed admiring them as I went on my way.

And I quickly scampered up to the rocks.
