Legend of the Sword

You've spent your whole life in a village nestled in the shadow of the Black Castle. The abandoned fortress was once the main seat of the legendary King Arthur. Today, however, no one knows what lurks within the walls of this fortress. After the murder of the ruler, most likely using a clever poison, the fortress was engulfed in chaos. Wizards, concerned for the welfare of the royal family, sealed the Black Castle with powerful charms, but a furious and wealth-hungry mob managed to plunder part of the fortress, and the entrance was unfortunately blocked during the fighting, irreversibly destroying the path to the castle. This state would have continued if it were not for the fact that local miners accidentally discovered an abandoned shaft leading all the way to the foot of the Black Castle. Terrified by their findings, the miners fled and notified the City Council, which after lengthy deliberations made the only sensible decision. The tranquility of your life was shattered by rumors heard in the market, which quickly turned out to be true. You were summoned before the Council, where you learned that the abandoned walls of the Black Castle hide more than just a heap of dust and a bunch of cobwebs. The legendary and powerful weapon, Excalibur, was hidden in this fortress, which, after the king's murder, was enchanted for centuries in a stone statue. It is a symbol of royal power that cannot fall into unauthorized hands. The order is clear - you must find the sword of King Arthur. The problem is that community gossip spreads very quickly, and spies from a neighboring country have stumbled upon the trail of the ancient sword and will any day possess the knowledge of how to extract it. To gain an advantage, you were pointed to an alternative route to the Castle, discovered a few days ago by miners. You hesitate.. But only for a moment. Despite the approaching storm, you climb among the mountain cliffs up to the foot of the fortress. Finally, you can help rebuild the kingdom. Will you manage to retrieve the sword?
