Lucian began to climb the rope ladder, closing the trapdoor above him. It was very dark but his drakelings had reached the bottom and were calling for him via their little chirps.
As he climbed down, he felt cool drafts of air reach up to him, a bit of moisture to them.
"Moisture...?" he said aloud as he climbed down. "Is there an underwater system down here? There must be, I guess. I've noticed this country has a lot of rivers and streams. The region is very lush and green."
After a couple of minutes of climbing down the hole quite deep, he reached the bottom of the ladder, which dangled down to a large cavernous opening.
He looked around, seeing a bit of natural light illuminate the cold cavern that was covered in moisture and a bit of moss.
"Huh....." He said as he dropped down and landed on the ground and patting his pants, "Interesting...."
