Marshall Lee skidded through the dense underbrush, leaves and dust plastering his sharp features as he fled the pursuing guards. Panting heavily, he concealed himself behind a gnarled tree, his chest heaving with adrenaline.

Emerging from the shadows, he gazed in awe at a secluded valley dominated by a towering, doorless stone structure, its high window beckoning him forward.
