- Infinite Castle -
The hole was just large enough for a man to enter, so he did. After traveling down the tunnel for what seemed to be an impossibly long distance the King came to a large cavern. In the cavern he found an enormous mound of stones. They felt slick to the touch, and seemed to absorb all of what little light there was in the cavern. The King decided to take this stone back outside.
The trip back outside strangely seemed to take no time at all in contrast to the arduous journey into the cavern. Once outside he noticed the stones actually did have color, but every time he moved the stones in his hands the color would altar slightly. All at once it struck him. He was to build the structure from his vision, and these stones were how he was supposed to build it, and build it he did.
Time became a blur. His only focus was building the structure. The King no longer needed sleep or food, his sole desire was to build. When he was finished he wasn’t sure if days or years had passed, but now his kingdom had a castle, and that Castle would exist as long as the Mountain remained, forever in its shadow.
