To reach the top of a normal mountain, it takes strength, endurance, and determination. To reach the top of Capsule Mountain, it took much more than that. In fact, out of my entire group, I was the only one to reach the top. Many took the climb down, others gave their life. All were my good friends, but there is nothing I can do now. I need to find the cave.
Legend has it that at the top of Capsule Mountain is Capsule Cave. No one knows what lies within but it is said that the reason for the mountain's name will become clear once you enter the cave. There are many theories but I am going to find the truth and hopefully live to tell everyone.
As I walked around the mountain in search of the cave, I also looked for some source of water or food. I had very little left and I could never make it back down the mountain without more food. Sadly, I could not find a single living thing. The entire land was just dead. But a few hours into my search I did find something. After searching the entire area and finding nothing, I climbed higher up to the very peak. This peak almost seemed to reach a point. It was like a child's idea of a mountain.
It took a few hours to reach the peak but I knew that it was worth it once a began to approach the top. There was a small space spiraling down into the mountain. I had finally found what all my friends friends gave their life for. Before descending, I took a look of the scene around me. The view was breathtaking. But this could not last. With a final glance up at the sky, I descended into Capsule Cave.
