Kiba, Penelope, and Tempest fell through the tunnel, their descent engulfed in an eerie darkness. The walls were cold and metallic, their smooth surfaces reflecting the faintest glimmers of light from above. The temperature dropped rapidly, and the women shivered, their breaths visible in the frosty air. The oppressive chill seeped into their bones, making them tremble uncontrollably.
Kiba, sensing their discomfort, released his power. A golden force field, shaped like a bubble, enveloped them. The warmth it provided was immediate, banishing the cold and illuminating their surroundings. The bubble surged forward, chasing the energy traces left by the water spirit.
"Just how deep is this tunnel?!" Penelope couldn't help but exclaim after what felt like an eternity. She looked around, the golden radiance allowing her to see the metallic walls that seemed to stretch on endlessly. Despite her enhanced abilities, even spreading her perception was useless in this place.
