Intermission: The Leviathan City (6)
The narrow corridors formed a labyrinthine network, a twisting path through the innards of the hideout. The oppressive darkness within these passages seemed to swallow the feeble illumination provided by sporadic lanterns. The air, thick with the lingering scent of dampness and the faint echoes of distant conversations, clung to the walls like a tangible presence.
Peeling paint and cracked plaster adorned the corridor walls, bearing witness to the neglect that had become a pervasive part of the hideout's aesthetic. Faint traces of color from what might have been vibrant murals were now reduced to muted remnants, obscured by layers of grime and the wear of countless hands brushing against them. The atmosphere within the passageways exuded a sense of abandonment, as if the very walls harbored forgotten secrets and untold stories.
