You come upon the Tunnel Ruins, looking out into the side of the mountain and the gaping hole where it meets with the ground. The crackling dark energy laps from the edges of the tunnel entrance, beckoning you forward. You sneer at it, preparing yourself to see the red-ringed umbreon, and stalk forward a few paces. Immediately the swirling entities beg for you to come closer, and although you don't want to give them the satisfaction, you know that you need to draw closer to be able to use your ability.

You try to walk this time, but the creeping sensation of a multitude of eyes watching you grasps your mind, and you cannot help but feel the need to flee. The feeling crawls down your spine until it shocks you, sparks of red energy leaping off your black fur, which makes you break into a run. You leap over the ruined stone pillars and other refuse, beginning to see flashes of red to your left and right, then above you. Every time you look at it, it vanishes as quickly as it appeared, clutching at your chest. It sounds like something is frighteningly close to you, but everywhere you look, your vision is obscured by darkness that gets thicker by the moment. Soon enough you are in pitch blackness, but you power on through, hoping that somehow you will find some glimmer of hope around the corner.

An overgrown root trips you up and you are flung through the air before you crash into the ground, scuffing your face on loose stone. When you grind to a halt, you moan and look up, the face of the red-ringed imposter umbreon glaring back at you. It stares at you with a wide grin before its mouth grows larger than its head and its face begin to melt, the sloppy substance pattering onto your face as you shrie̎҉̗̱̫k. It burns you with every slosh, and soon enough, you can feel it ş̮̹̺̔̌͋͛ͅtart to dis̷ͩ҉̘̳͇so͖̪̞̓ͧ̾̍̆ͅl̸̶̻͎̪͋ͯͩ̒̃̍ͅv̴̦͚̖͒ͭe your whole body.

Daniel the Umbreon suffers 6 points of damage to Purity.

And you can do it again.

You harness your defiance in a single act of rebellion, breaking free of the sloppy, corrosive substance dragging you down and race towards the entrance to the ruins, where the heart of the corruption continues to swirl and mix together. Upon arrival, you begin a chant to draw the Utopian magic from any source you can, remembering the evil of the Stalkers that you have been trusted to abolish, and the light you are capable of wielding. Again you see the form of the umbreon reassemble in a sloppy mess as it tries to take steps towards you, leaving behind a trail of burning, bubbling goo. Horrible hellish sounds escape its mouth as it heads straight for you, but you tear your eyes away and focus on your task. You cannot fail.

All at once, you release the stream of light, completely vaporising the umbreon and any destructive substance with it. The eye of the corruption explodes and hundreds of hissing, garbled and incensed voices scream out and are then silenced as you are sent back a number of metres.

{Corruption's Eye: <Seinaru>}

There are a few moments before you can gather yourself again and shakily get to your feet once again, seeing the result of your purification. Just like the other locations, the Tunnel Ruins are now free of shadow. The sun touches it for the first time in many days, and you use its warm light to find your way to the heavenly object that you predicted you would find here. Sure enough, where the centre of the corruption was lies a chunk of silver ornately carved. It gives off a soothing glow, the feeling of which you recognise as it heals the corruption within you once more.

Daniel the Umbreon restores 4 points to Purity and gains a temporary +2.

You pick up the relic, noting its notes of amber, and pocket it.

[Thundercaller Relic] was addded to the Team Iventory.

Exhausted from the exertion but feeling somehow simultaneously renewed, you head back to the clubhouse to store the relic safely with the other Utopian artefacts.
