On the wall opposite from the freight elevator was a door small enough that a person could open it, so they decided to start there. The door led to a long passage, which was wide enough that the forklifts could enter. They were around fifteen feet across with rusted doors placed at regular intervals along the corridor. They checked inside each one, but unfortunately, they didn’t see anything of interest.

“I wonder if this was a desk and a chair?” guessed Arian.

“B-but it’s all rotten and fallen apart,” said Fey.

“There’s a toilet and bathtub over here,” Rino observed.

“Though dirty and unusable, I imagine,” offered Celes.

“I know we can’t expect much since it’s been thousands of years, but I find it hard to believe there isn’t a single book left.” Shinichi sighed as he looked about the room that had nothing but the broken remains of furniture.

All we’ve found are the living quarters. This probably wasn’t some sort of military facility. Which means…

Shinichi was starting to guess the true nature of this place called the Elven Tomb. He headed farther inside, hoping to find proof of his theory, and found another set of stairs. He descended to the second basement floor.

“Th-the architecture is the same as the floor above,” noted Fey.

“This might not be worth it, but…” Shinichi decided to investigate a nearby room.

At the same time, Arian, who was leading the group, held up a hand, calling for the party to halt. “There’s something moving ahead.”

“What if it’s a giant cockroach? Yow!” yelped Shinichi.

“Don’t even joke about that,” warned Celes, her face pale after she had tightened her hands around Shinichi’s neck to strangle him.

He was trying to listen for movement and heard a low scraping sound, like something heavy being intermittently dragged across the floor.

“……”

Arian didn’t say a word as she drew her magic sword. Celes readied herself to cast a spell. The glow from her Light spell illuminated part of the path, and they saw something coming toward them slowly, dragging one leg uselessly on the ground.

“…A robot?” said Shinichi, the words falling unexpectedly from his lips. Appearing before them was a blackened metal humanoid figure as tall as a normal man. “No, wait. Is it a golem like the one in the elves’ village?”

“Yes, one made from steel. I can feel magic coming from inside it,” confirmed Celes.

“Of course,” said Shinichi, convinced but a little disappointed. After all, every boy loved a good robot. He stopped feeling that way, though, the moment he saw the golem point a barrel in their direction.

“Celes!” he shouted.

“Magic Shield.” Her spell created a shimmering shield of light large enough to span the path. That was when fire erupted from the barrel.

“Wh-what?!” cried Arian.

Explosions echoed through the corridor, like someone casting a chain of Fireballs. Each one was followed by a small object that collided into the shield of light, bouncing back with a shower of sparks. Arian had never seen a weapon like it, but Shinichi grabbed her arm and pulled her into a nearby room.
