After 10 grueling days of surviving the labyrinthine Hollow of Echoes, Merina, Callisa, and Isola finally crossed into a safe zone.
As they stepped over the threshold, the eerie silence of the place gave way to the low hum of life and activity.
The narrow, winding tunnels opened into a vast cavern, its high ceiling adorned with shimmering stalactites that cast a faint, beautiful glow, making the cavern look like a city under the stars.
It was as if they had stumbled upon an underground metropolis, bustling with activity.
At first glance, the city seemed to grow organically from the cavern itself.
Buildings were made from intricately carved stones, following the natural curvature of the cavern walls. Glowing moss and fungi served as the city's primary sources of light, casting an otherworldly glow over the entire area.
