It doesn't matter who you are. It only matters that you're here now. The 'Cave of Blunders' is known to kill fledgling adventurers, but there's a reason why you're seeking out such a dangerous place. It might be to gain fame and glory, or maybe it's to rescue the smith stolen away from the nearby town. Be it selfish or selfless, you're at the entrance of a dungeon. All you need to do is step forth and claim what fate determines is yours.
