Medieval AU
Seth pulled the hood over his head and wrapped his cloak tighter around his form. The autumn season was in full effect with leaves changing color and the air getting colder and colder until it felt like it bit through your skin, despite how many layers you wear.
The deeper into the forrest they trekked, the darker it seemed to get. Trees seemed to grow taller and look more menacing in the farther they went. Wind would occasional pick up leaves, blowing them every which way. Crows squawked overhead as they peered down at them, seemingly watching them.
Seth and his mentor were trying to find an old abandoned Keep. The previous owners were notorious collectors of all things arcane. From religious artifacts from around the world, to items of magical qualities, to everything else in between. No one knew what happened to the previous owners, just that one day all activity from the Keep seemed to cease. Most believed theory was that they were captured and burned at the stake by paranoid Church officials for dabbling in magic or heresy or some sort. Tends to happen a lot more often nowadays.
“Do you have any idea how much further?” The younger wizard groaned, looking over his teacher.
