Kael stood at the front of the academy, surrounded by all the students and teachers. They stood on each side, letting the chosen demigods pass through. As they walked, their classmates shouted words of encouragement.
The group moved through the path, and Chiron stood next to the gate, waiting for them.
He looked them over and started to speak.
"You will all go there and investigate. That is your quest. Your job is to retrieve whatever you find inside. But do not look within or take anything. If you do, you will be punished by the gods. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes," they all replied.
That made Kael a bit curious. Why weren't they allowed to look? What was so important about this item?
He whispered, "Greed, you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Greed shook his head with so much excitement, Kael could practically see him drooling over the idea of taking what the gods wanted for himself.
