Chapter 23 by Shibbar Shibbar

What's next?

A coral bridge

A wide chasm sat in front of Nora. It looked strange, as if cut through the walls and ceiling, like a blow from an axe to a log. It was hard to describe. It was a chasm underground, that's all that really needed to be said. Nora peered over the edge and saw nothing but darkness... no, not nothing. She had to strain her eyes. Deep, deep, down was some sort of massive purple mass that slowly pulsated, like a giant heart. It ran from the darkess on one side to the darkness on the other. She shuddered. She was glad there was nothing like it up on the surface.

Spanning the chasm was a bridge made of the same strange coral substance as the cage she escaped from earlier. It was nothing fancy, more like a thick slab with crude guardrails on each side, but it did seem sturdy enough. {If Lasso used = true}The Morlok's corpse sits midway on the bridge. It's matted with old blood. {else}Midway was a pole several metres tall standing upright, and from this pole hung a wretched corpse of a Morlok, bloodied and gauged out. Nora would've brushed it off as some bad Halloween costume if it wasn't for the situation she was in. Something glinting around the neck caught her attention. Normally taking it down wouldn't be a problem, but the pole looked like it might snap if tampered with, and she couldn't risk it falling into the abyss.{endif}

The "street" continues North and South.

The chasm pulses unnaturally
