You take a nervous step toward the gate, trying to look brave and harmless at the same time. The closer you get, the bigger and scarier it looks. The carved gargoyle in the exact center of the gate doesn't make you feel any better, especially when its eyes begin to glow and it reaches out for you with its massive paw. "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" it thunders. You gulp, take a deep breath, and...
Ask the gate "Um, could you maybe let me in...please?"
Turn around and run
