CH45 Striking Riches... Or Not

After getting dressed, Alex realised the source of the golden energy signature picked up by his Spirit Sight wasn't coming from the stalactite milk pool, but from something deeper within the cave.
He followed the trail of energy—only to quite literally come up against a wall.
The golden light in his vision was now incredibly dense, leading him to conclude that the source of the Mana signature had to be behind it.
However, there was such a strong spectrum of Mana behind the wall that it became difficult for Alex to discern exactly what lay beyond.
He tapped on the rock face before him. As he suspected, it was hollow. And fortunately, not very thick.
With a flick, the blade of his left wristblade extended out. Alex used it to carve a small hole in the wall.
Just to be prudent, he made sure to pull out the cut piece of stone rather than push it inward and risk alerting any creature that might be on the other side.
