Vaal led the group through the open door and out into an unknown danger.
The first thing any of them learned was that their little boxes weren't the only dark spaces in here.
The cavern the group had entered was a pitch-black space that seemed to go on for several miles.
The air was cool and damp, yet there was also a stale quality to it that made one wary of breathing in too deeply.
Vaal and the other assanbossam could see with perfect clarity from the moment that they stepped inside. But the humans required only a small bit of adjusting.
The group walked through the cavern with no real direction in mind. Or at least, that is what they believed.
Unconsciously, they had been following the source of the cold.
Vaal held up his hand to stop the group when they arrived at a steep drop-off.
Sitting below them was a large, frozen lake with only one figure waiting for them on top of it.
