The Old World (5)

Jason swallowed a lump of saliva as he stared into to the depths below. He took a deep breath before he grabbed ahold of the Rusty ladder and lowered himself inside. Metallic noises rang out with each step that he took. The noise was unsettling as it echoed off the walls that were close around him. 

Once he had descended about halfway, he heard the sound of Sentinel following after him. 'Maybe I'm just overthinking things. He would not have let me go first if there is anything dangerous down here. How far does this go anyway?' Jason squinted into the Darkness below as he tried to make out how much further he had to put up with this. 

Roughly ten minutes passed before Jason's foot touched upon solid ground once again. He heaved a sigh of relief as he looked around, but there was not much to see. The ladder led to a slightly open room, there were no decorations and only rusted metal made up the walls. There was a solitary passageway the led away from the ladder.
