A lone wanderer approached the foreboding structure, curiously, cautiously. “This is it,” he spoke in a hush whisper, almost afraid the sound of his voice might break the spell woven over this area. “I’ve never encountered so much magic in a single place. I must seek the origin of this power…” He carefully circumvented the outer wall, seeking a place to enter. Though he was built like all of his kind, strong, powerful, and gifted with wings and claws that could easily by pass the physical presence of the walls, some part of him knew that was not the path to understanding the power within. “There must be an entrance somewhere…”

”You’ve got to be kidding me…” Auberon stared into his crystal dumbfounded. “So many souls fighting tooth and hoof to get out of here and this bonehead’s trying to get in…Well,” he grinned bounding up. “Guess I’d better show him some goblin hospitality!”

The dragon’s ears perked as he sensed the swell of magic around him just before the strange emerged. “This dwelling is yours?” he questioned with interest.

”What no ‘hi, how ya doing?’ ‘nice to meet you’?” Auberon asked arching an eyebrow with annoyance. After all…he was a prince of the Labyrinth, third gen maybe, but a prince nonetheless. “You’re not so good with manners…eh, dragon?”

”Luthe,” he stated and continued unabashed. “And I thought it was a fair question. You course with the same energy as this establishment.”

”I should,” he grinned broadly and stated with pride. “It’s my family’s labyrinth.”

”A curious form for such magic,” Luthe noted as his eyes took in the expansive formation. “Why would your family invest so much into such a structure, sir…?”

”Auberon,” he answered with his typical bravado. “I am Auberon, master of mischief and goblin prince extraordinaire.”

Uncertain how to properly respond to such an introduction, Luthe hesitantly tried, ”It is…nice to meet you?”

”You’re damn right it is.” Auberon grinned, “You’re lucky, you know that, not many get to meet the goblin royalty these days…” Because we're all stir crazy recluses who don't leave the Labyrinth - but he'll figure that out sooner or later.

”Uh-huh…” Luthe was back to studying the outside of the Labyrinth, making mental notes as he observed various structural abnormalities both in the architecture and the magic that seemed weaved into the very bricks.

”You’re uh, really interested in this place, huh?” And really unable to focus, I mean come on dragon - goblin prince here - master of magic. Pay attention to me!

Ok, you know what - new plan! This is going to be too easy… Auberon grinned, “Well I’ll tell you what, I don’t do this for everyone, but I really like you, buddy. It’s your name, Luthe, it’s got a ring to it. SO…I’ll let you in the labyrinth. You can explore, look around, do whatever, as long as you want and when you’re done, just find me in the center of the Labyrinth and I’ll send you on your way, sound good?

Luthe nodded, excited at this new prospect and opportunity to study the complex magic, “Thank you, where is the entrance?”
