Amphiptere's Maze 2
[Ren Hilton POV.]
[A FEW MINUTES AGO.]
Just as I had done my part by warning these guys not to take Erik past the door in his condition, I stepped away from the door and felt the temperature change in the atmosphere.

The ground marked the second-to-last layer before the final circle, the last challenge that one must cross. It's circular in shape and has enough space to hold a battle. In the middle of the circle, there's a small cabin, arena-wise, but its walls extend high above, preventing entry by climbing. It has a simple-looking door.
In truth, it is a simple door—no magic because—
"Ugh," I grumbled, as there it was—the Amphiptere, tied by a thin chain and a shackle around its neck. I could feel its raging breaths.
