Storytelling and Gaming 12 - First passage

I have written the first little passage for my story and I want to document it here. I probably won't do this again but I just want to have a portion of my story written out on my blog so you can get a taste of what my story will read like. Since I'm at a stage where I just have to buckle down and do the writing portion of the story, I probably won't update my blog again until I finish it because there isn't really much to update during the writing process.

Here's the first passage:

This inscription, could it be? Yes, you’re certain of it! These ruins detail the resting place of an ancient underground holy site. It’s right here. After months of searching, you’ve finally found it. The entrance to the lost Temple of Poseidon.

You stand back up above the inscription on the ground, taking in the beauty of the immediate area. The helicopter had dropped you off about 5 minutes ago into this beautiful ancient site. Broken pillars and stones are scattered around in a circular formation. Whilst it has certainly seen better days, you can’t help but feel giddy with excitement, knowing that you are the first archaeologist to discover this place. 

Ancient Greece was not your major at University, rather Egyptology. But something about the myth of the lost Temple of Poseidon had always captured your imagination. You became obsessed almost. You have read every article written about it; every book on Greek history in The London Library; you’re even familiar with some of the staff at The British Museum. And the satisfaction that knowing you could be moments away from discovering something truly spectacular sends shivers down your spine.
