"So this is the dungeon they were talking about..?", asked the brawny man wearing a full suit of knight armor of the same design as his companions and had a huge hammer tied on his back.
This bald man with scars on his face has been staying in front of the group for quite some time now; and as one could tell, he is the muscles as well as the experienced older brother among his companions. In front of him is a hole in the side of a mountain, and inside is a deep cave system oozing with mystery.
One of the men came forward, "Yes. According to report, this is the mysterious cave that the adventurers discovered."
A short black haired young glasses man, with a rapier on his side, answered the muscle bound man's question calmly.
"The adventurers who entered this place said that there are what seemed to be buildings of houses and halls that resembled a street of a very prestigious city. There are lamps with medium quality magi stones inside as well. There are other reports of rare objects found in different places, as well as what seemed to be a garden that resembled an illustration of a garden inside the capital city of Amyth. They think this is the lost capital city from a thousand years ago. But there is a problem. The place is infested with demons."
When the brawny man heard the word demons, he started making a huge grin on his face .
"Hehe. Interesting. Hey Captain! Shouldn't we be entering already? What are we even waiting for?", asked the brawny man who too excited to the captain of their unit.
A golden haired lady with a bun hairstyle in her early twenties walked forward to where the brawny man was currently standing.

"Again, that's VICE captain. I was never promoted, remember?", says the only lady of the group with an annoyed tone. This woman is wearing a much more revealing and feminine version of the armors the male were wearing, emphasizing on speed and mobility rather than strength, even though she uses a mace.
"Really? I thought you did though, since Senya is reliable.", says the brawny man in surprise to the Vice Captain, making her sigh inwardly.
That's right, her name is Senya de Ovlen, currently the vice captain of the newly appointed unit.
"And you're our veteran supervisor, Sir Amos."
The brawny man's name is Sir Amos Coreman. A veteran knight and supervisor of the unit.
"The preparations have already been finished. I believe the captain says we can go." says the glasses guy interrupting the two's conversation. This guy's name is Armin Coreman. The youngest brother of Amos Coreman and a knight who's part of the unit, as well as the intelligence division.
"Well then, I guess we should go now.", says Sir Amos while smiling with excitement.
And like an instrument in tune, Vice Captain Senya declared with a shout to the other soldiers, "Everyone! let's move out!".
The unit enters the dungeon.
>>>~~\M/~~
Below the ground, where no one can hear nor know about, lies a large dark cave with an old big tower that's enough to have a lot of rooms inside. In one of these rooms is a huge circular dome shaped room that seemed untouched by time. In the middle of it is a glass coffin, surrounded by huge piles of treasure at the dome's corners. On the sealing of the dome is a stone that emits a bright light which falls down to the sleeping little girl inside the coffin. This girl seems to be at the age of three; and if one were to look properly, the little girl has a porcelain white skin, a bright red hair and a cute yet calm sleeping face. She looked like a precious, little doll.

It's bright.
Lily weakly opened her eyes to see what was going on, while trying to adjust to the light that's above her; but the light was too strong for her weak eyes, so she tried lifting her body instead. Little did she know, she was inside a coffin made out of glass.
Huh? What is this?
I moved my arm to touch it, only to find hard glass surrounding me. I didn't hesitate to try and push it off me; and with luck, the glass was easily moved to the side, fell then broke to pieces.
She then proceeded to move herself out, but was suddenly shocked by her joint's persistence. Her body was stiff as if it was not used for a very long time.
Wait. huh?
I'm... struggling to lift my upper body? Come to think of it, I feel... warm.
What's going on?
Confused with the sudden changes, Lily tries to make sense of the situation by trying to recall everything that happened; but her brain responded only with a sudden head ache. With all of this going on, she could barely keep herself from panicking.
'Okay, okay. C-calm down. Why don't we get off this bed first.'
Lily, confused with the new things she's experiencing in her body, started talking to herself to calm down, which she never had to do before. Without noticing the changes on her height, nor the fact that she has shorter limbs or the fact that she has red hair, Lily decided to move herself out of the bed. That's right. right now, Lily is the cute little girl that was just sleeping a while ago.
I moved my feet out of the bed and tried to feel the floor, only to fall from an unexpected height.
"kyah-!"
In the impact, a part of the shattered glass pierced the skin of her feet and into the muscles. Surprised by the sudden feeling of pain that shocked her body, she stopped what she was going to do and took a glance at the wound. 'It's painful', she thought; and just like a director right on cue, tears started falling from her eyes, for the first time.
After that, like flood, her emotions gashed out from the bottle that was never opened before, until now.
she screamed loudly, and cried harder like a child looking for her mother.
"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH... MAAAAA.."
Why? I don't understand. I can't control myself anymore.
Someone. Please tell me what's going on!
