Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game

"The passage is narrow and lengthy, but not covered in dust, seemingly cleaned regularly."

"There is candlelight illuminating both sides of the corridor. You recognize the style of the candles, the ’fish wax’ that was popular in the city last year. It shines exceptionally bright and lasts for a long while, although it is pretty expensive. Your dojo also has two in its collection."

"It takes you a while to reach the end of the stairs."

"A golden light becomes visible before your eyes..."

"A massive arched barrier fills the entire underground space, unlike common barriers that are colorless and formless, this one bathes in a faint golden light, a swirl of colors and dense blood-red runes flow and flicker across its surface."

"The underground space isn’t supported by pillars, the indestructible arched barrier alone holds the space up."

"Still near the stairs, you already feel an overwhelming force, akin to gazing up at a towering mountain, there emerges a sudden sense of fear caused by the crushing force."

"You understand, this is the ’Guardian of the Ten Directions’ Absolute Realm’!"

"Your vision pierces through the massive golden barrier and lying within is a figure fast asleep."

"Compared to the vast barrier, the tiny figure seems like a mite. But you know, no matter how powerful the barrier is, its purpose is to suppress that very figure."
