After pushing through the cave for a while, this chamber opens up into a surprisingly bright space. Light pouring in through gaps in the ceiling provides more than enough visibility for exploring, so there's no need for a torch during the day. That said, you'd do well not to drop your guard. Ambushes from the shadows may not be a concern, but that doesn't mean danger is completely off the table. Water seeps through cracks in the cave walls and falls in small cascades along the stone. Caught in the daylight filtering from above, the mist from the falls gives the whole space a serene, mystical feel.

That's right; it was all part of the plan they had cleverly devised. —From an inscription left by a researcher.

The denizens of Aincrad have a variety of unique belief systems—some more socially accepted than others. Some even offer sacrifices to ancient gods in order to delay a coming apocalypse. Since such beliefs are ostracized for blurring the lines between human and demi-human, altars are typically set up in hard-to-reach places.
