After passing through a forest of thorns, I found "Zaman's Shrine".

Inside the shrine, there was a straight path with no sign of monsters, and there seemed to be no tricks or traps.
The deeper I went, the stranger I felt.
It was an old structure, but no decayed parts could be seen. There were no traces of the adventurers' steps.
It was like a place isolated from this world.

And at the deepest point, in the doorway...
In the center of the dazzling space, lit from above, a girl dressed like a wizard was sitting on a rose-carved platform, petting a cat in her arms.

I stepped in front of her with all my might.
'I have come to be tested.'

The girl looked up, looked at me as if to decide, and then dropped her gaze into her arms.

'What do you think, Master?'
'Mmm, what do you think?'
'I think this person has good eyes.'
'I see.'

The white cat, opening his sleepy eyes, said with dignity,

'Then let us begin - the test of time.'
