Karl and his party now stood before the entrance of the towering, silver metallic structure. Dullahan and Libera, their bodies trembling slightly, instinctively gripped the hilts of their swords, their unease a palpable presence in the air. Karl, however, was the opposite; his eye sockets widened like twin stars in the darkness.
"Wow! This is fascinating," Karl said, his voice filled with genuine awe. "I never thought I'd see such an alien design. This looks like something out of a futuristic science fiction movie."
Schalezusk was equally amazed, though tinged with a healthy dose of fear. "This is amazing and terrifying at the same time," he mumbled, his gaze sweeping over the seamless, unnatural surface.
"How old do you think this structure is?" Rook asked, a hint of wonder in his voice.
"We can't know for sure," Leo replied, his hand resting on the smooth wall. "But judging by how alien it looks, this might be as old as the world itself."
