Leon was panting as he trudged along the road.'Too...much...walking...out of...ale...'he thought.The sun burned on his sweaty head,and he decides to sit down below a tree.However,as soon as he walked in front of the tree,he felt like he stepped on slate,and part of the tree trunk slid up,revealing a secret stairway spiralling down,seemingly never-ending."Hey!The Training Cave!I finally found it!Yahoo!"Leon shouts as he trudges down the spiral stairs.

At the bottom,there were three doors--the left one had a sign above it that read:"Road of Trials;Prove your power,courage and wisdom.".The one on the right read:"Fighting Room;If you feel ready to fight,then do it!".And the middle door's sign read:"Trainer And Pupils' Quarters--eat fish,eggs,drink refreshing ale,or just rest!".

Training cave? Whats that! Well I guess thers only one way to find out! Denning goes into the tree."Hey, Leon, what is this place?"

"This place is where I used to train,while under my mentor that is,"Leon says proudly.'Only this place has been abandoned for a year,it must've fallen into disrepair,'Leon thought darkly."Well,have a rest in the Trainer And Puplis' Quarters,Denning,you must've been pretty tired."he says."I'm going to do the Trials Of Virtue.It won't lead to the Triforce,obviously not,but it's a test to see if one can even get close to the Triforce.Well,not exactly."Leon says as he enters the left door.

Inside(OOC:That is,if you decide to follow,IC now)Leon shouts,"I know you're in here!C'mon out!".Immediately,holes opened up on the walls and ceiling,and about eighteen masked warriors clad in white and wielding sharp rapiers jumped out of them.Leon easily plowed through them,receiving a bruise and a cut along the way."Minor injury,so what?"he yelled out to the room.

In the next room,he was faced with thin,unstable stakes driven loosely into a roaring river,the stakes being about two-hundred feet above the water.And there were huge axes,swinging side to side,hung a few feet above the stakes...yet Leon manages the perilous journey to the staircase on the other end,but not without some wounds and frightening occasions.

At the top floor,a pillar with a stash of Rupees on them is presented under the light.The other one presents a cross and a Hylian Shield.Unfortunately,he ran over to the money,and right in front of that pillar,a hole opened under him.Screaming,Leon fell down in front of Denning.

"I never get the Wisdom part right,"he mutters before heading off to the Trainer And Pupils' Quarters.

'Fighting room? Hey Leon want to do a face off in the fighting room?"

"Then let's do it,."Leon grins as he becknos the Cleric to come with him into the Fighting Room.It was a large,bare,empty square room with a painted-blue frame and granite floor.It was actually well lit,with a door at the back of the room that had a sign on it.It read::"Keep Out!".Leon grumbles,"I've never been in there.If you try to open it,the doorknob zaps your hand.".

Denning starts swinging his staff."Lets go!"At that, Denning launchs into a thrust with his staff.

"Huya!"Leon shouts,grinning,as he parries Denning's staff--slightly knocking him back--and powerfully flipped over Denning,wheeled around,and quickly swung his sword at Denning's unprotected back.'This better hit,'he thought.

OOC:It hasn't hit yet!

Quickly ducking down, the sword scrapes his back. On the ground, Denning twirls his staff around to Leons feat, attempting to trip him.

Leon falls headfirst into the forbidden room's door.He yells,"Ow!"but the the door was suddenly opened up.Behind it was a large,bare,empty chamber that felt oddly hot--unberably hot."Oh boy,"Leon says,recovering from the shock.The chamber was completely empty except for a gilded throne in the middle with comfortable purple silk cushions on it.

"We can't go in there,"Leon says fearfully."My mas-er,ex-master told me of a horrible beast in there...".

"Then shouldnt we close the door, and get back to fighting?"

"What?Why should I obey my ex-mentor's rules?I know the beast in there,but I want to see it up personally."Leon says,rolling his eyes.He nervously entered the room,preparing to defend himself should the monster attack.But it was perfectly empty...nothing out of the ordinary.

"Maybe its a sleep, or a fake story to keep you out. Maybe there's a hidden treasure in here!"Denning enters causiously, he slowly moves toward the throne.

"No,you don't know,do you?"Leon asks fearfully."The monster isn't inside this chamber,it is this chamber!"he yells.At that second,three huge,blazing red eyes snapped open on three of the walls.The door shuts tight behind Leon,and metal bars fall down to block it.The doorknob also explodes into bits of scrap metal.Four giant,scaly green arms with claws the size of a Deku explode out of the room--two from the floor and two from the ceiling.

The floor tiles a few inches away from the throne fall apart,forming a circle-shaped chasm around it.Out of the "chasm",a bunch of razor-sharp tempered daggers flew out of it,and started swirling around the throne,barely visible through a curtain of blue and red flames.Also,a huge mouth opened up on the floor,snapping hungrily with its dragon-sized sharp yellowish teeth and strecthing out its forked green tongue.

The eyes narrowed and shot purple beams all over the room in random directions.The arms clawed around madly.The daggers began shooting out of the fire curtain and going back like boomerangs after reaching nearly half the room.Floor tiles levitate out of the floor at random times and spun at Leon and Denning.The mouth tried to chew stuff up while trying to catch Leon and Denning with its tongue hungrily.

"Defend yourself!"Leon yelled,blocking floor tiles and daggers with his shield,ducking or leaping out of the way of beams and leaping away from the swinging arms and tongue of the Mouth-Beast.

"AH!"Denning backs up against a wall and starts spinning his staff ridiculously fast to create a shield from the staff.

"I know how to stop it!But it's virtually impossible!"Leon yelled,slashing a living tile to bits."We must get on the throne!That'll open the door back there!"he points to a barred,doorknob-less door at the very back of the room.
