I know that look when I see it.
Don’t tell me: you’re looking for a Temple of Doom, or maybe hunting some bastards who don’t realize that that statue belongs in a museum! No, not a word, you’re one of those tomb raiders, or maybe you’re looking for your father, who mysteriously vanished some time ago. Or you need to “borrow” the Constitution to unearth some clues on a National Treasure. Perhaps you were just hiking peacefully when you happened to find the City of the Dead or maybe even El Dorado!
I can see it on your face, you’re an Adventurer. That smug grin tells me you’re itching for a lesson you clearly didn’t understand the first time around. Eyes on the Treasure, nothing else matters to you. And those bruises, the scratches on your cheeks, that torn-up shirt and dusty hat... It’s clear that harm’s way is your trade and reckless your middle name!
That’s why I like your lot. No matter what you’ve gone through, how many beatings you’ve taken, how many rope bridges have given way under your feet or how many poi- son darts have come shooting out of the walls, you can never get enough. The Treasure may be far away and hidden, but you never give up the hunt.
