FINAL UPDATE/IMAGE.
Story:
Over 200,000 years ago, magic was abundant in a sea cave, called the Drake’s Cavern. Various settlements over centuries have turned the once magical sea cave into a dry and hollow chasm.
Legend has it that deep within this cavity, lies the mythical drake hearsaid to be the sole Guardian of the great sea cave. It is believed that as the waters left the cave, so did the magic. The mythical creature has now succumbed to slumber and his body has been left chromed. Thus, the Duck Sentinel was born.
Ever keeping watch of the cave, the Duck Sentinel remains a myth. Our character embarks on a quest through the now forbidden Drake’s Cavern in hopes of finding the great treasure that the legend promises. He braves himself to find out if there is any magic left in the cave, and if the Duck Sentinel truly was real.
