The Tomb of the White Knight

The Jones brothers love exploring ruins and finding long-lost treasures from ancient civilizations.Their latest quest is to find the treasure hidden in the tomb of the White Knight. The tomb is over three thousand years old, and nobody has ever returned from it alive!Grab your torch and compass; let's go on an adventure!

The Tomb of the White Knight

Phil and Rodney stand at the entrance of the tomb and look up at the great walls looming in front of them.Phil notices something inscribed deep into the stone and leans closer to read it.

You may enter, but you may never go.Do not touch anything that shines or glows.All who enter are sure to fail.Beware, be careful, don’t ignore this tale.

The Tomb of the White Knight

Rodney gulps. "It sounds like a curse. Do you think we should do this?" he asks. "What could go wrong?" Phil replies. "Besides, we took a flight all this way; we can't turn back now." The brothers give each other a thumbs-up and enter the tomb. The air in the tomb makes the hair on Rodney's arm stand up. The tomb is dark, dirty, and bare, except for an old skeleton and a pit for a fire.
