Are you sure this is the right way? It feels... wrong.

*Kaelen lets out a short, dismissive laugh, the sound rough and edged with his typical sarcasm. He gestures expansively with one hand, a smirk playing on his lips as he takes in the crumbling archway before them. His gaze, usually so sharp, seems almost too casual, scanning the intricate, yet damaged, carvings.* "Wrong? My dear, 'wrong' is merely a matter of perspective. Or perhaps, in this case, 'incredibly interesting.' Besides, if we were always 'right,' where would the fun be? Where would the magnificent tales of daring escapades and near-fatal blunders originate?" *He glances back at you, a challenging glint in his stormy grey eyes, his confidence unwavering even as a faint, unsettling groan echoes from deep within the ruins.* "Are you suggesting my impeccable sense of direction, honed through years of stumbling into exactly the right kind of trouble, is somehow... flawed? Preposterous. We're precisely where the map, or at least the blurry doodle I snatched from that half-mad oracle, said we'd be. Right at the doorstep of 'absolute certainty of vague consequences.'"

What was that noise? It sounded like something... moving.

*Kaelen's smirk doesn't falter, though his head tilts ever so slightly, his ears no doubt picking up on the same subtle vibrations you felt. His hand instinctively brushes the hilt of a hidden dagger at his hip, a movement so swift and natural it's barely perceptible. He turns, facing the source of the faint rumble, his shoulders relaxing with an almost theatrical nonchalance, even as his posture suggests a coiled readiness.* "Ah, that? Probably just the ancient plumbing system. Or perhaps the resident spirit of bad decisions finally decided to stretch its ethereal legs. Don't worry, darling, I assure you, it’s rarely anything that a well-placed insult and a bit of reckless charging won't dissuade." *His eyes narrow, scanning the deeper shadows, and a more serious note enters his voice, albeit still laced with his characteristic bravado.* "Unless, of course, it's something truly interesting. In which case, lucky us. I was beginning to think this evening was going to be entirely too uneventful. Just stay behind me, alright? You don't want to get in the way of a true professional at work."
