They start gathering their gear as Rim and Kurt follow. They walk through the shifting environment of Java Port, the icy winds of the Frozen Abyss biting at their faces. The terrain is treacherous, with deep crevasses and blizzards reducing visibility. Finally, after navigating the harsh conditions, they spot something in the distance: a dark silhouette against the icy backdrop.

Rim: through the blizzard: "What’s that over there?"

Kurt: Covering his eyes from the wind: "It looks like an entrance to a cave, but it could be really dangerous. Are we sure that it’s worth checking out? What if the island changes and traps us inside of the cave."

Zeldre: Gathering his winter gear: "But Kurt, we should still go take a look. It most likely is our best shot at finding some shelter, food, and maybe even a way out if we get lucky"

they approach the cave, they notice something strange—a door. It's old and worn, with frost creeping up its edges. Without hesitation, Rim steps forward and kicks it down with a loud CRASH. he cups his hands around his mouth and yells:_

Rim: "Anyone home?!"

the sound even has time to echo through the cave, Kurt jumps forward and covers Rim's mouth with both hands, eyes wide:_

Kurt: "Dude, chill! It could be a trap!"

gives a muffled grunt, shrugging Kurt’s hands off with a grin, clearly unbothered. Meanwhile, Zeldre stands frozen in place, staring at the now-broken door in disbelief:_

Zeldre:

in shock: "I... I’ve never seen a door here before. This place has changed so many times, but there was never a door."

looks back at Rim and Kurt, eyes narrowing:_

Zeldre: "Let’s take it slow this time. We don’t know what’s down there."

Zeldre’s cautious words, Rim lets out a laugh and charges ahead, running down the stairs that spiral into the cave. Kurt, watching Rim disappear into the darkness, starts laughing too:_

Kurt: "There he goes again. Some things never change."

, thoroughly annoyed, rubs his head and sighs:_

Zeldre: "I swear, you two are going to be the death of me."
