Round 8:
Determined to find an alternative solution or seek guidance, you decide to explore further and see if there are any other characters or sources of wisdom on the island. As you venture deeper into the jungle, you stumble upon a small village inhabited by a group of indigenous people.
Approaching them with respect, you explain your quest for the Fountain of Youth and the dilemma you face. The village elder listens intently and then speaks in a wise, weathered voice.
"The Fountain's gift is a double-edged sword, seeker of youth. But there is another way. Seek the ancient amulet hidden within the Cave of Reflection. It holds the power to grant eternal youth without the burden of sacrifice."
With gratitude, you thank the elder and set off towards the Cave of Reflection. The journey is treacherous, but your determination keeps you going. Finally, you arrive at the entrance of the cave.
What will you do next?
1. Enter the Cave of Reflection and search for the ancient amulet.
2. Take a moment to rest and prepare yourself before entering the cave.
3. Consider the potential risks and consequences of seeking the amulet before making a decision.
Choose your next move wisely, adventurer.
