You find yourself in a dimly lit hallway, deathly cold stone beneath your talons, sucking the heat from your body. Pressure in your ears tells you that you're deep underneath the surface of the earth. You turn to observe your surroundings, behind you there are heavy metal doors, looking somewhat like an elevator. Stranger, there were two heavily armed Obelisks guarding it, above it in fine white letters was the word
"EXIT".
You frown at the sight, the guards making no movement to stop you from coming closer in your curiosity, confirming your suspicions of it being an elevator. A very heavy-duty indestructible looking elevator. Upon closer inspection of the hallway you decide the doors are the only plausible exit, there were several other doors along either side of the hall, all made of the same strong metal. Your already rapidly increasing breath reached new heights when you look down. Long, thick, claw marks scraped down the stone's pristine surface, ragged and consistent as they led to another identical steel door. You could imagine the screams of the desperate dragons who made them, echoing throughout the dark unwelcoming halls.

"Excuse me, what is this place?" You manage to muster up, turning back to the still guards. They're as silent as ever. "Hello? Can you hear me?" Waving a talon in front of the face of one of their snouts, you receive no reaction. A look of confusion works its way across your snout, couldn't they at least say something? You walk over to the second guard, repeating the process, still no reaction.
"HELLO?" You say loudly, right up in the face of the second guard, this time it seems you do get a reaction.

"When's break again?" The second guard grunts to his partner, turning his head slightly to face them

The first guard rolls her eyes, clearly not pleased with the dragon she was assigned duty with, "You should know this." she snaps, the only thing about her stance changing is her annoyed expression." 2:37 is when we get off." she continues, managing to smooth over her annoyance with one of indifference, gesturing slightly to the caged clock at the end of the hall.

You wait for them to acknowledge your very obvious presence, waving your talons absurdly above your head. A growl of frustration escapes you, stamping your foot on the icy floor.
It makes no sound. You try again, still, silence.
"What is going on??" You lunge forward to shake the second guard, but instead crash right through him, getting an unpleasantly cold sensation up your spine.
