Emboldened by the exhilarating conquest of the tablet, your passion for discovery becomes an all-consuming flame that scorches away any lingering doubts or fears. The lost city of Zoltar, once shrouded in an impenetrable veil of mystery, now beckons like a beacon, its shadows pierced by the unwavering light of your determination.
As you traverse the ancient streets, each worn cobblestone and crumbling monument whispering tantalizing fragments of the city's history, the enormity of your surroundings becomes inescapable. Towers stretch skyward, their profiles weathered into eerie contours by the ravages of time, their jagged silhouettes illuminated in stark majesty by the pale moonlight. Plazas, once teeming with life and vibrant with the bustle of humanity, now stand desolate, their forgotten stories lingering in the spectral tableau of abandoned dwellings and empty bazaars.
Despite the omnipresent shadow of decay that haunts the lost city, more and more fascinating discoveries reveal themselves with each passing moment. In the depths of a crumbling structure, your eyes fall upon an intricate mosaic map of Zoltar in its prime, a triumphant cartographic masterpiece of astonishing detail. A hidden library, its dust-laden shelves groaning under the weight of countless tomes penned in the arcane script you laboriously decoded earlier, begs to have its secrets uncovered. Dozens of marvels await you—each capable of bringing you greater understanding, tempting you to venture still further into the city's depths.
Your path eventually brings you before two doors. The left one, adorned with a mosaic of a great serpent encircling a sacred tree, exudes a sinister aura. The right one, embellished with the delicate carving of a peacock feather, is a promise of pristine beauty hidden within. Choosing one over the other is as capricious as the rainforest itself—each could unleash terror, reward your bravery with untold knowledge or even guidance on escaping this wondrous yet treacherous city.
The lost city of Zoltar lies open to you, its ancient mysteries unveiled for the first time in centuries. But even amidst the wonder and joy of discovery, a gnawing certainty tugs at the edges of your consciousness: the jungle's unforgiving grasp grows ever tighter. Will you let your hunger for discovery guide your hand?
Choose the door adorned with the peacock feather.
