Magnus’s RPG empire on the portal.

Spiders again! I think I'm starting to hate them... There were hundreds of spiders, maybe even thousands. The small eight-legged insects crawled toward me like a black shroud, wishing to cover me with their deadly web... I have to get out of this somehow, but how? I'm not sure, but... With all my might, I plunge my katana into the fake altar. The spiders didn't vanish (and why would they, actually?), but the stone table split and a hole formed in the floor in its place. I jump into it and see... An altar. A real altar. The altar was situated on a stone pedestal descending into the abyss of the Tower. Either I climbed this high, or they dug this deep. But the tower seemed truly bottomless. The spiders crawled after me, but the hole was too wide and they fell silently into that blackness... I began the ritual anew.
