A hooded pilgrim descends a spiral staircase into the earth

You have ventured into the deep. The stairs remember every step taken before yours.

No torch reaches this far. Only the voice that has always been waiting below.The Shadow Guardian

An iron crucible marked with an eye, molten gold boiling over

In the crucible, the pride, the guilt and the fear are thrown into the fire.
