Sabre made his way deeper into the cave system, far from the prying eyes of his grandmother or the sneers and comments of Kondor and the demanding desires of Abigor. He crawled through a small tunnel which opened out into a larger cave, it was huge, bigger than any cave he had ever seen in his forays. There was a body of water to one end and what light shone down in weak pockets through vents in the rock above played off of the water illuminiating the area to some degree.
Sabre moved forward cautiously, aware that anything could be residing down here and cursed as he walked into something hard and metallic in the gloom. He kneeled down to inspect the object only to find it was a series of metal links, large, forming a chain.
"What is this?" The Daemon King said to himself softly.
His eyes travelled the length of the chain which disappeared into the darkness.
"Hello!" He called out, the hail bouncing off the walls in a resounding echo.
There ws a noise off to his left, a dragging of the links as if something was rising and pulling them as it did.
"Who are you...what do you want here?" Came a deep scratchy growl, it was as if it came from all around Sabre.
The Daemon turned, his dark eyes searching, his silver hair, pale in the weak light.
"What is your purpose here Daemon? Did she send you?"
Sabre took a breath.
"Do you mean Meridor? No....I seek escape from her and others....who are you?"
There was a deep chuckle and from the darkness in the recess of the cave emerged a large head, serpentine with glaring red eyes.
"Then we have something in common little silver haired Daemon.....something in common!"
