There is a large granite door possessing four slots. The first feels hot, the second wet, the third dusty, and the fourth cool. You notice that they are amorphous, constantly changing like a stormy lake.
You hear laughter in the distance, "Return for your slaughter when you have found the keys...if you survive!" The breeze rushes cool and you turn your back on the fortress.
From your cloak you pull a crystal case. It is warm like metal under the sun. As you open the cover, wisps of smoke pour over the sides. In it you find a key-shaped plume of fire.
You place it in the first of the slots, and it slips into place. The key and door melt into one another, leaving solid metal where the flame had burned. You continue with each of the keys...
...when you have finished, the door begins to crack and splinter. Spears of light spill from within; they are warm and blinding. You enter and are confronted by a hooded man.
"Welcome to my lair! Its a pity you have journeyed so far...
...for nothing."
As the remenants of Kang's body fade into nothing, the walls of the palace begin to quiver, slivers of granite splinter from all sides, and you run through the door. From the dome, a myriad of scarlet shards rain.
After hours, the flames dissolve into embers. In the sunset you can see the hope of a new generation, it glitters bright and sure. The world has seen salvation in its weary eyes, and it falls graciously at your feet...
