Hole of Beasts

If you can master teamwork, you can overcome any impediment!”

But this wantonly reckless treatment of company property will be reported!”
Cavern of Chaos
“Wait... From all appearances, this is a particulary frightening crevasse. The data is horrifying! Courage is one thing, but recklessness is something else. Perhaps we should turn back? Well, if you still wish to enter, keep your daring in check and just focus on surviving.”
