Acus was aware of the dangerous and toxic gases that had accumulated inside the ageing chamber, but he chose to wait for them to dissipate before entering. He knew the risks involved but he was determined to uncover the treasures that lay within.

Harold City's third ruler was a far cry from his powerful forefathers. Born with a weak physique, he relied on his cunning and intellect to rule instead of his physical strength. The family records spoke of others who had tried to enter the chamber in search of wealth, only to meet their doom at the hands of the infamous "Curse of the Gods." But Acus was no fool, he knew the curse was nothing more than the deadly gases within the chamber.

As he waited for the dust to clear, Acus grew increasingly impatient. He barked orders at the slaves, urging them to take torches and enter the chamber. Despite their hesitation, they obeyed their master, their footsteps slow and cautious as they approached the chamber of death.

One slave almost dared to defy Lord Acus, but the fear of retribution kept him in line. They ventured forward, every step filled with dread, as they realized the true danger that lay ahead. The so-called curse of the gods was just a myth, but the toxic gases were all too real.

With the slaves serving as his scouts, Acus finally mustered the courage to step through the entrance. Exploring ancient tombs was a treacherous endeavor, especially ones that had been untouched for centuries. The tales of these eras were filled with stories of cannibalistic madmen, who used traps and poison pits to protect their wealth. Some tombs were even said to have been built with darker purposes, such as the infamous Ironfate Chamber.

Young and foolish adventurers had ventured to the Ironfate Chamber in search of its rumored riches, only to meet their grisly fate at the hands of its sadistic guardians. They had been captured, brutally tortured, and devoured as a warning to others.

Given the potential dangers that lay ahead, it was only practical for Acus to send several slaves into the passage first. Their lives would be the ones sacrificed if they encountered any traps or obstacles along the way. As Acus followed, he was relieved to see that the slaves had not met any harm. After walking a while longer, it seemed as though the passage held no surprises. But still, Acus couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the back of his mind.

But after a considerable hike, he finally understood why. A massive boulder stood in his way, adorned with markings from the Giamor First Testament, the Age of Ignorance. This was the resting place of King Auther, the lost tomb of the chosen king of God, hidden deep within the belly of the valley. The discovery took Acus by surprise.

According to history books, the burial site of King Auther was lost over time after the collapse of the first Empire, and subsequent generations had only limited knowledge of that era. The information that remained was fragmented and incomplete, leaving much to be lost and forgotten.

In front of Acus was a boulder that blocked the passageway and stood in his path. This was unacceptable, and Acus was determined to uncover the secrets that lay beyond. The lost tomb of King Auther was within reach, and Acus was determined to uncover its hidden treasures, no matter what lay in his way.

"Dammit! This is bullshit! Aaahh!" Acus exclaimed as he violently pounded the boulder with his bare hands, his skin quickly tearing from the rough surface. Despite his efforts, the boulder would not budge, and it became clear that he would not be able to enter the tomb of King Auther anytime soon.

The tomb of King Auther, the legendary king who wielded the power of God, was just beyond that boulder, its riches and treasures untouched since ancient times. It was a frustrating setback, and anyone would have been incensed at the situation.

King Auther was an epic hero who brought mankind out of the Age of Ignorance and into the Age of Civilization. He was widely renowned, with tales of his might passed down from generation to generation, even children having heard of his glory. Bards sang songs in his honor, and countless books were written about his life and deeds. King Auther was a figure of great reverence, his existence second only to God. And even now, centuries later, he lived on in the memories of millions.

Acus was a powerful lord, the third ruler of Harold City, known for his cunning mind and intelligence, unlike his forefathers who were known for their physical strength. He had spent a great deal of his family's wealth and resources to uncover the lost tomb, which he thought belong to a noble of the ancient era. But it turnout to be of King Auther, who was said to have been buried with the sword of God, Excalibur, and the flame that never died. The tomb was said to contain countless treasures from the ancient Holy Empire, gear, relics, and other precious items that would be invaluable in the present time.

Acus had been preparing for this moment for years, keeping the exploration a secret from the rest of the world. He had taken precautions to avoid any traps that may have been set in the tomb and sent slaves ahead to clear the path. He finally reached the entrance to the tomb, but was stopped by a large boulder blocking the way. Despite his attempts to smash the boulder, his skin was torn and bleeding from the rough surface.

The lord was beyond frustrated and furious, so close to his goal and yet so far. He took a deep breath and told his men to return to the surface and let the artisans do their job, promising that he would eventually enter the tomb of the king of God. However, as he stepped out of the tomb, he was met with the worst of news. The lord of Frith had encircled his men with a larger army.

Acus was consumed by wrath upon hearing this news, and in a fit of rage, he jabbed the guard who brought him the news. Despite his anger, he was also relieved, as the physical release of his emotions helped to calm his mind. He puffed out a sigh of frustration and prepared himself for the inevitable battle that lay ahead. The lord of Harold was determined to claim the treasure of King Auther and make his mark in history as a powerful ruler who succeeded where others had failed.
