After a while, Sunny regained enough of his senses to warily look around.
The tunnel they were currently in was somewhat different from those they had traversed while fighting the horde of undead monsters. It looked more weathered and decrepit, with its walls and floor smoothed and uneven, as though eroded by something over the course of countless years.
What's worse, it was… wet. With a cold shiver, Sunny realized that they were surrounded by puddles of black water.
The smell of sea salt permeated the air.
Looking up, he found the tall figure of the boisterous huntress and asked in a raspy voice:
"Where are we?"
Effie glanced at him and gestured up.
"A hundred meters or so below the surface, pretty much exactly under the city wall."
He stared at her blankly, slowly comprehending the meaning of these words. The huntress gave him a nod.
