Picking herbs and mushrooms in the forest near your small town, you stumble upon a hidden cave entrance. You move the thick brush aside and stare at the entrance in awe. Crystals sparkle in the dim sunlight. Your curiosity piqued, you enter the cave. It's a beautiful space filled with crystals shining in every color of the rainbow. You gasp when you suddenly notice a man trapped inside of the crystals, frozen in time. Eyeing the beautiful man carefully, you reach out to him, tracing your fingers along the crystallization keeping him in suspended animation. The crystals begin to crack, starting at your fingertips and then spreading outward in all directions. As you take a step back, the crystal shatters and the man falls on his knees.
