Track 4: Resting Place

After what must have been hours of grueling, frame-perfect dodging, you realize that the ruffians have all stopped pursuing you. They have all stopped at the end of a trail, silently watching you as you continue on your path. Kind of odd, but you certainly aren’t going to argue with them. It’s getting dark. You’ve already wasted so much time, and you’ve only got one night to find your true love. You descend into the ancient ruins of the valley below, still chasing outlines of buildings in the distance. Wait, did that building just move? Oh, great. 

The ruins are quiet and mysterious; teeming with life but none of it sentient and most of it being various forms of greenery. Aside from the howl of the wind, a strange thudding of the ground and the occasional bird, this valley is silent; perhaps honoring the ancient civilization that once lived here. The ground thuds louder and shakes harder as you slowly approach the walking-buiilding-thing. As a general rule, you tend to avoid moving objects that are building-sized, but it happens to be the only way forward. 

Eventually, you come across an oddly placed merchant in the doorway of ancient destroyed building. Finally, a merchant! In exchange for some coin that you picked up from those unsavory types earlier, he points out a shortcut through the mountain to reach the city beyond. Looks like we don’t have to deal with the walking building after all! As you exit the valley, you wonder if the merchant has gotten used to the persistent mini-quakes, or if the NPC is even aware that they are happening.
