# **MINI-ADVENTURE IX — "MONASTERY ON THE HILL"**

*(full, long, novel version)*

On a hill, surrounded by fog and ancient pine trees, stood a monastery that had inspired fear in its inhabitants for centuries. Legend had it that the monks who lived there had mysteriously disappeared, and the place had been haunted by strange phenomena ever since.

Commissioner Jakub arrived late one evening, Argo at his side. The dog sniffed the air and trembled slightly, sensing the presence of something **inhuman**.

“Argo, something tells me this won’t be an ordinary investigation,” Jacob muttered, approaching the monastery’s stone gate. “Every wall here holds dark secrets.”

The monastery door creaked as he opened it. Inside, it was dim, the air smelling of incense and damp. The corridors were narrow, and the shadows stretched unrealistically long.

In one of the rooms, Jacob spotted a **runic symbol carved into the stone**, pulsing with a faint blue light. The runes looked familiar—similar to those in the forest, the theater, the canal, and the castle.

“That means someone here is continuing the same rituals…” Jacob whispered.

Argo growled, stopping in his tracks. The dog sensed something Jacob hadn’t noticed yet.

Suddenly, a group of robed figures emerged from the shadows. Their faces were hidden, their hands holding books and symbols that pulsated with a dark light. One of them gestured, and a shadow swirled in the hall, creating a vortex of darkness into which one of the missing people disappeared.

“Argo, act!” Jacob shouted.

The dog lunged forward, leaping through the swirling shadows, and Jacob followed, drawing his flashlight and shining it on the runic symbols. The light penetrated the ritual, and the shadows began to tremble and dissolve into thin air.

The monks took a step back, and the vortex of darkness vanished. The faces of the missing people began to emerge from the hall—terrified, but now free.

Jakub breathed heavily, petting Argo:

“Good, lad… another mystery solved.”

The monastery fell silent again, but Jacob knew that **dark forces still lurked in the city's recesses**.

“We will never stop, Argo. Where darkness appears, we will always be needed,” he said.

The dog looked at him loyally and wagged his tail, ready for another adventure.

And together they left the hill, knowing that **more dark mysteries already awaited in the shadows of the city**.

If you want, I can now prepare **MINI-ADVENTURE X**, which will be **the darkest and most complex yet**, in which Jacob and Argo face off against a **serial killer manipulating dark magic throughout the city**, with a murder mystery, supernatural traps, and a dramatic climax.
