Mountain Roars

As mountains shift and echoes from explosions rumble in the distance, mysteries lie hidden in every corner of caves, streams, and trees. Strange, flickering lights pulse to the rhythm of the voices of a young man and woman, their stories echoing back and forth as they try to piece together the story of this place.
