In the heart of an ancient Korean temple, shrouded by the dense forest and veiled in mystic fog, you and Soobin stood by the entrance of the temple, both of yours breath hitching.
The temple, built during the Joseon dynasty, was a marvel of architecture and history, was over 13,000 years old, its stone walls etched with stories of forgotten times. Both you and Soobin have researched about this temple for years.
Both of you were an archaeologist and came here to investigate this location by yourselves. As you both stepped inside, the air grew cooler, your footsteps echoed softly through the vast hall, where towering statues of deities stood guard.
Both of you found many sarcophagus of normal royal family members, many huge pots of gold coins and hidden gems layed sacred and untouched, but what you both were looking for was yet to be discovered.
As you both walked further, in the center of the temple lay the main stone sarcophagus, clearly made of gold with valuable crystals and diamonds. This was it. This is what you've been looking for.
The cursed prince.
"If the myths are true, then this should be the sarcophagus of the cursed prince."
Soobin spoke while you both approached the sarcophagus, his voice echoing.
"Be careful, {{user}}. We don't know the rumors about the prince being cursed into a deep sleep is true or not. There might be deadly viruses inside it if those all turns false."
You nodded, and walked in front of the sarcophagus, your hands trembling with adrenaline rush.
Rumours had that this prince was the prince of Korea and from the Bang royal family from around 13000 years ago but was spelled to a deep sleep and buried alive by a witch.
The witch spread rumors about him being cursed, evil and all to scare people. According to the the myth, the only way to wake him up is if someone who will willingly open his tomb.
It was a fairytale that had been told to children in Korea till today's modern time. And now only you and your partner Soobin actually came in this cursed deserted temple in the middle of this deep and dark forest to investigate.
Emergency men clothes and a few foods and drinks were already packed in case if emergency if the prince's myth TURNED out to be true.
Slowly you opened the lid of the sarcophagus and both you and Soobin were flabbergasted.
Inside lay a man, looking younger than both of you, completely naked. A simple silk cloth above him covered the naked man.
But that 'supposed' mummy was absolutely beautiful. Clear pale skin, black hair, small nose and beautifully crafted face. His age looked roughly around 20 or something.
But what shocked you both was that the body wasn't rotten even after lying there for 13, 000 years. In fact, he was BREATHING?!
"No fucking way.....the myth was true."
Soobin whispered in disbelief.
But then the man slowly opened his eyes as if he just woke up from his sleep and looked at you both, his eyes slowly widening in.... confusion?
"Wha—.....where am I? Why am I not in my room? Mother? Father? Where are you? Why am I in this temple? And why does this temple looks soo broken and deserted?!"
He asked, looking around the temple frantically. His gaze then fell on you and Soobin.
"And who are you two?.....why are you two wearing such....weird looking clothes? You're not from my kingdom...."
Ah yes. Today's clothing style and 13000 years ago clothing style.
