GERMANY
TEUFELSHÖHLE
POTTENSTEIN
NORTH OF NUREMBERG
Teufelshöhle or famously known as the Devil's Cave was once a tourist attraction and draws visitors to come visit it.
It used to be a beautiful safe cave that serves as a place to travel to when in the area. However after the event of the Fall, that cave lives to its name.
When the Fall started happening in many places all over the world, places like caves or deep abyss or deep holes around the world becomes like spawning point for monsters and beast.
It could be seen in Azief experience himself as he fought an Asura inside the caves of Batu Caves.
The Devil's Cave after the Fall began to lives to its name as a Cave for the Devil.
The moment the Fall happens and the meteor streaked upon the world carrying the World Orb, the surroundings of the Devils Cave was surrounded by flowers of variety of colors and possessed a different spectrum of colors than the primary colors.
It grows suddenly like the vegetation and plantation around the cave was accelerated. Flowers of different worlds blooms and the smell was inviting, sweet and fresh
But even with the pleasant smell coming out from the cave, everyone runs away from the cave.
Monsters and beast started rushing out from the cave and attack any settlements they could get their claws on.
However coming out from the cave is not only monsters or beast. Instead there were stories of souls, tormented souls of the death that possessed the living.
The wind that passes the cave holes creates a terrifying sound like something evil and dark is breathing inside the caves.
It only adds to the terrifying status of the cave in the minds of the people
Like every nation in the world, every nation at that time had to face different breed of monster, and Germany is no exception.
At least around this area near the cave and the settlement around it, it was different than the rest of the world in terms of the horrors they had to face.
Instead of the mutated sapiens that was roaming the many cities of Germany; around the Devils Cave the inhabitants were seized by a crippling fear of being possessed by those dark souls that wander in the night.
When night came, they tried their hardest to avoid going out as they hides in their rooms. Builders were very important for the people around the Devil's Cave area since they are attacked by a different kind of horrors.
People with attribute to repel souls are treated as a hero.
Especially people with thunder or lightning based skills since the souls or ghost of the Devil Cave fears them and could be destroyed by those that have such attributes or skills.
The Devils Cave was always shrouded by a dark aura that would induce fear in low level levelers.
Not only that there is also red mist that would spread from the depth of it tunnels and reach to the nearby forest and affect them.
It causes the forest around the Devils Cave appearing to be distorted and its tree to evolves to be monster-like

Some of the trees could grab people with its branches and throw them away, while some trees form mouth like a flytrap and could devour monster, beast or humans that dares comes near it.
But however, weirdly after the Weronian War ended, the Devil's cave is no longer emitting thick waves of red mist and there are no longer tormented wails of unknown sound coming out from the cave.
No one knows why it happens.
But for those who live near the Devil's Cave they still remember the stories about the cave before the Weronian War.
So, they still remind people never to come too near to the Cave.
However, they must have never thought that this Devils Cave is actually one of the safe spots for the famous Order of Thinkers.
They reclaim the cave after the Weronian War
It was night and the different kinds of night birds around this area shriek like the sound of a wail of a woman ghost.
They are not like normal birds before the Fall. Some of them are hideous while some of them are beautiful.
But the bird that is around the Cave area and its surrounding is always ugly.
It was like the birds too were also transformed by the red mist that would always come out from the entrance of the cave.
The Trees around the Forest one have to passed before entering the cave area would move every few seconds, the sounds of it moving could be pretty chilling when you heard it at night
The red mist covered the ground when suddenly a person walks through the sea of mist. He is coming near to the cave, his white robe contrasted with the red mist.
The tree that usually would attack anyone that tries to come near the cave was unresponsive instead it looks like it was welcoming that person.
The man walks casually like he was strolling in a park, his white robe billowing being pushed by the current of the red mist.
The wolf howls in the distance, its howls is long and chilling. The man look toward that direction and just scoffed.
Night Wolves territory is not far from this forest.
The man passes the forest safely as he reached the entrance of the cave. Without showing any signs of fear he enters the cave
The winds blow heavily inside the cave as he revolves his energy inside his body so that he wouldn't be too affected by the cold night.
He sighed.
'It has been a long time since I've been in Germany' he said to himself as he smiles bitterly, remembering a painful memory.
It is his homeland but after the Fall, his task requires him to travel the world. A task he loves
At the beginning he also made a home in Germany but at that time the Neo Nazis group under Bradheim was taking controls of the cities in Germany.
Of course there are others that would fight him. But one thing was certain. Germany at that time was chaotic.
And he himself was powerless against the threat
If monsters killing human is not enough, even humans started killing each other. It is not a safe place for his family.
He is the few rare people in the world that survives the Fall with his family
He brought his family elsewhere and joins the Order of Thinkers when they were in the Fake World.
Of course at that time no one knows of their organization yet. They were still strengthening their foundation at the time.
When he returned back to the real world, the Order of Thinkers has created many safe spots all over the world for members of the Order of Thinkers.
It wasn't until a few years ago that they dare shows their face among the many other groups and factions all over the world.
As he walks inside the entrance he smiles a bit looking at this cave.
Before, this cave was a three kilometers long maze of delicate and vast dripstone caves.
However now it is hundreds of kilometers long maze of Verilion mineral.
It is a massive undertaking to transform this place in the world before the Fall, but after the fall, people have many ways to build something with incredible speed.
Verilion is one of the minerals that the Order of Thinkers found in their expedition on the seabed and named it Verilion.
It is strong, durable, and malleable.
It is quite an important discovery a discovery they used to profit of the backs of organization like the World Government, the Republic, League of Freedom and many others.
The reason the minerals was so profitable is that the mineral could also channel energy and could act as a circuit or conduit for energy.
Which is why the Order of Thinkers uses the Verilion minerals to line the walls of Devil's cave.
It makes them able to put lights on top of the roof of the caves, lighting the dark caves and making sure the cave is well regulated by putting commands to its defensive mechanism like putting a program into a computer system.
The air could be refreshed and the light could be turn on and off and it powers the other defensive mechanism at place.
Other than that, they constructed underground lakes and runes were also carved in many places creating something like a Golden Equation with the cave as its center powering an invisible formation making it unable to be detected by Divine Sense unless one could disable or crush the formation.
Finished looking and liking what he saw, he walk forward slowly, one step at a time. Then he arrived in front of cave door, a door made of metal like minerals.
He saw the many symbols on the door. But there is only one symbol that would open this door
He smiles and pushes the symbol of Pi. The door glows as it recognizes the hand and also recognizing that he push the right symbols.
