RE: Sundered Lands on Steemit (Game Session Date: 2017-11-25)
Illumination from below indicates that there is more beneath this pool than was clear from the surface. Clear water becoming murkier as your steps mix up mud from the floor, it appears that there is a cave or perhaps even a tunnel not far ahead.
Before the water clouds my vision completely, or I lose the ability to withhold my breath any longer, I quickly swim toward the light ahead
With the last of my reserve breath I push deeper into the pool, through the cave opening, and emerge in a small chamber line
** is the coast clear, or do I see a threat?
(Anyone may answer)**
Stalagtites, stalagmites, a glowing torchlight,
You scan around and use your sight,
you sense a presence but try as you might,
nothing identified but a slight fright.
Taking the torch, I continue down a tight, twisting tunnel lined with sharp stalactites. Tripping several times over slippery stalagmites... I reach a large grotto. The massive room of the cave opens up before me. My torchlight is lost in the vast darkness of the space.
The presence still lingers, but I cannot be certain it is anything but frightened nerves.
Continuing on... I follow the cave wall.
**Do I discover any artifacts, or strange objects in this place?
(Anyone may answer!)**
Markings trail along the cave wall growing ever more complicated- this area is either inhabitated or once was - some bit look like art, but you get the feeling, as you go deeper, that these markings are a warning.
