The “Wizard’s Cave” under the cape contains priceless treasures
Legend has it that the entrance to the Wizard’s Cave is on the north side of the monastery, and some say it is a cave facing the sea. According to historians, during the 17th century, the Wizard’s Cave was the site of pirates and smugglers, who used it as a convenient lookout point with a clear view of incoming ships. Some people say that there is a wizard in this cave, who will appear and wander around the area at night, making strange jingling noises, which is interpreted to mean that he wears shackles on his feet, which will make loud noises with his every move.
Some people say that the Wizard’s Cave is occupied by “saboteurs” who will light a fire at the entrance of the cave and let the incoming ships go to the rocks below, where they will encounter mishaps. Some of the more fantastic legends describe a treasure hidden in the cave, but it is guarded by dragons and demons, so it is almost impossible for humans to obtain it. The history of this story is older than the wizard’s legend. One time, a well-known knight came here. He was called “Walter the Brave”. He came here to challenge because he heard the legend.
Walter entered the cave at night with a sword and a light, walked in a narrow tunnel, and was immediately attacked by demons and ghosts in the cave. The brave Walter waved the sword in his hand to resist, broke through the siege, and moved towards the depths while being chased by the demons. However, there was a huge pit in front of him blocking his way, and the demons behind him were ready to deal with him. At this time, Walter took off his heavy armor, made a leap after praying, and successfully jumped to a safe area on the opposite side of the pit, escaping from the siege of the demons. At the end of the next passage was a huge door with a horn hanging on a gold chain. He then picked up the horn and blew it, and the door in front of him opened with a sound, revealing a spacious room. There are twelve crystal pillars and twelve golden lamps on the top of the room. Under the dim light, there are piles of gold, silver and gems shining. This is the legendary treasure.
Later, Walter became a wealthy lord with the treasures retrieved from the cave. He owned many castles and manors, established a monastery, and eventually married a beautiful princess.
As time goes by, the cave where Walter ventured has turned into a haunted forbidden place, where the moans of ghosts and the sound of dragging chains can be heard. Some people think that this is to warn future generations so that people will not want to be like this. Walter also took risks and made troubles. Some people say that maybe Walter never managed to escape alive.
