The Underneath of the Forums
The lightlessness of this place has an unrelenting quality about it. The illumination provided by the coins forms so sharp and striking a contrast with the surrounding blackness that it is almost painful to see. Light is neither normal nor natural within this sunless realm, a fact that the steady erasure of light by darkness as the party moves forward all too readily confirms. Small things scurry away as the light draws near to them and the small illumined area within which the party moves is little more than a small and lonely place within this great sea of dark and shadow. The passage widens somewhat as the group moves forward, gradually reaching a point at which 3 might stand abreast and still be able to move without fear of stumbling into one another. Strange sounds can be heard echoing through the tunnels ahead, sounds that seem vaguely like scraps of argumentative conversation, but no words are clearly discernible, nor can the distance of their origin be determined with any accuracy.
ooc: I’m leaving town Saturday morning and will be away for a week visiting my brother. I’m not sure how much posting I’ll be able to do while I’m away and so things will in all likelihood be a bit slow moving on my end here until just after the holiday.
But, by all means don't stop posting. There are some interesting character interactions that have begun to take place in the thread. By all means, feel free to move with them.
