the return to the land of Dante page 6

the return to the land of Dante page 6 by ric gustafson


Aaron and the elderly man slowly walked toward a red sunrise that was on the horizon. Palm trees dotted the landscape and tall cliffs surrounded them.
After walking several miles, Aaron stopped under one of the trees. " Can we rest for a moment?".
" We have arrived at our destination" the old man said as he walked up to an old cellar door that opened downward. He slowly opened the latch and carefully opened the corroded door. The narrow and steep stone stairs led down to somewhere dark.
" Aaron, be careful" the old man said as he carefully stepped onto one of the damp steps. " This tunnel is dark, wet and sometimes scary".
" Old man, where does this tunnel go?".
He smiled as he began to walk down the steps. " To the home of the Judge of this world, Minos".
