Flesh Clots

Step. Step. Step.

Unafraid of the unknown, Adam stepped forward confidently, completely immersed in the darkness. He didn't know what was beyond the Serpent Gates, he didn't know where he was going, but he knew why - that was all that mattered.

"How strange... I no longer feel like I am in the caverns. There's no familiar echo of my voice here, but I don't know how wide or narrow the boundaries of the passage are."

Silvana didn't have an answer to that question either. For her, as for Adam, the Serpent Gates and what lurked behind them was a frightening mystery.

Cracking. Crack. Crack.
