Path For The Fallen

The Paths of the Fallen
Without being given much of a choice and no real idea of how they arrived to their current location, the three mages are teleported to what seems to be inside a cave, each teleported in different locations with only one path in their wake. What will they Choose? Move forward or Wait?

Move Forward
Deciding to move forward. Candles placed on the walls of the cave begin to ignite, ushering the mage deeper.

Walking a distance about ten minutes, the path seems to open up. revealing a large open area where snake like creatures seem to be dormant. They have yet to realize your presence. Examining your options, you realize you have two. A path through the middle of the giant nest, that leads to another opening. And another path through the side that leads to a different opening. Will you wing it and go down the middle? Or play it safe and go through the side?

Wait
Deciding to wait sometime to assess the situation. A large clicking sound is heard, followed by the sound of turning gears as the floor beneath you breaks causing you to fall into a large pit. Trying to make it into the edge, strong gusts of wind push you downward, without any chance of making it up again as you begin to fall down at incredible speeds. In no time, you make it to the bottom only to be met by a body of water, crashing hard against this pond that seems to be so deep it has no end. Unfortunately you are not alone as giant creatures seem to surround you now.

(Fight Scene)

You have made it through this ordeal and defeated the monsters. before you is three choices it seems. To the right is one path, to the left another and during your fight you happened to spot an opening underwater that seems to be a path as well.

Middle
Deciding to go through the middle, something unexpected happens. The giant snake creatures seem to have been already killed, but unfortunately what caused their demise now has their eyes, set on you! A giant screech is heard and from the ceiling jumps down a giant spider covered in what seems to be metal.

(Fight Scene )

That was quite an/a (easy/difficult) ordeal but you press on. Going through the path, you begin to pick up a slight scent of fresh roses. In fact the more you keep walking the more the smell gets stronger until you get to an open room again, but this time filled with beautiful flowers in all directions, even coming out of the walls and ceiling.

(your point of view)

To the far end you spot two ladders, one leading up while the other seems to lead below.

Side
Taking the safe route bodes well, as you begin walking, a large screech is heard and you rush to the entrance seeing a giant spider descend near the giant snakes and make its way towards you. Luckily, you were able to make it passed the doorway, with the monster unable to follow, though you could clearly hear its disappointment and anger as it continuously beats on the entrance trying to get in. Walking some distance
