of Swords and Scales

Sophia Duquette has been charged with entering a cavern that everyone avoids. What's so appealing about a cavern named "Death Cavern" anyway? No sane adventurer would ever go in when they know they won't be able to get back out. 

Regardless, she is tasked with entering the dreadful place and made to fight her way through a  horde of enemies, all to reach the rare herb that grows in its innermost chamber. 

Can Sophia make it through? Or will, just like so many before her, never be heard from again?
