The large cave is covered along the walls with bright torches.  A large hole has been carved in the ceiling of the cave, right above the ladder that descends into the underground cave.  On good bright days, sunlight directly surround the hole with the gold ornate ladder descending into the underground part of the cave.  On the walls of the cave the torches illuminate many ornate drawings and paintings mainly dealing with the history of Kings of the realm.

Can you tell me more about them? what is the real story, what do you make out of the drawings This here talks about how our Kings took over this land from someone called the Children. I have heard rumors of this. I guess that means the rumors are real, the king will kill us if we ever share this with the people back in town, I am curious though, why would the king lie
