"I sense you speak truthfully. Come inside and you may take what you will."
Jasmine sighed with relief. She was expecting to have to fight or bargain with the Cave for what she wanted, but it seemed that wasn't going to be necessary. She stepped forward into the gaping maw of the cave, walking carefully down the winding staircase that formed from its tongue as she did.
Once she was inside, the princess was immediately taken aback by all the treasures that were scattered around the cave. She knew that Aladdin had been in there before and probably took some things, but she thought that he was exaggerating the beauty and scale of this place when he had described it. But it seemed that he was not. There were piles and piles of gold and jewels that seemed to stretch as far as she could see.
Jasmine looked around and found a difficult to reach area that was filled with four items on pedestals that looked more magical than normal.
"What do we have here?" She said to herself as she began to examine each of them.
She had no idea what each of these artifacts did or if any of them were even useful to her. But she had a gut feeling that one of them would be just what she needed.

"You will know when the time is right. Take what you wish." The Cave boomed, as if answering her unasked question.
