(YBA) Moth travels to Little Peace Town

Breaking open the book Moth discovers that it seems to be an ancient reference about the site the town was built on. It seems to have been written by one called Zaphael the First of Dark.

Edit- The book is really thick and would take weeks to read thorougly, however there is an index in the back that could prove helpful if you have something in particular to look up.

Moth thrusts the book into his satchel. Threading the ring and the key on a leather thong, he ties them around his neck where he can easily reach them if need be. Then, preparing his weapons, he attempts to disenchant the runes upon the trap door:

The tiger swims underneath the wastelands; shreds the chaos of the crevice!
 

Once more the runes flare and fade and the portal opens this time it is man high and a beautiful human female emerges. The trapdoor also springs open.

"Thank you, I have been trapped there for so long! Thank you! Free"

She falls to the ground crying and kissing the floor.
 

Moth's eyes water at his sadness for the girl's plight and joy at her release; but then he hardens his heart, for might not the girl be a demon in disguise?

"Who are you?" he asks gently. "And what are you doing here? I am called Moth, and I have rescued you from whatever fate has befallen you here in this terrible place."
 

She continues sobbing and kissing the ground but eventually Moth gets her to calm down and answer his questions.

" I am Alysa, I was one of the minor defenders of this town, in an age that I guess must be long passed. But then a great nemesis came and I was imprisoned here. In a pocket dimension full of devils, it was terrible."
 

"I am sorry," Moth admits, "but this town has already fallen to evil. It would be best for you, I think, were you to flee this place and find a new home elsewhere."
 

" I was minor compared to the other guardians but I am still skilled in my own right, I could grant you a little aid here if you desire it and I know a little of the history of this town. As well as the path to the Tombs below. "

"Any aid or knowledge that you could provide would be valuable, miss. I thank you for your kindness in this dark place."
 

"It is my pleasure to help someone who freed me from that hateful place, I can be of some assistance if you have something you wish to enquire about, although my knowledge is probably not applicable to the town above, since its been a long time I fear by the way you speak. "
 

"I heard something of the town's history from an evil creature not long ago; naturally, I mistrust its words, and so I should like to hear your rendition. In addition, I would like to hear more about these tombs."
