Into the Depths: Investigating the Shimmering Shore Tunnels (Group 2)
10-27-2024, 02:11 PM
Nimue had no intentions of joining in on a scouting party just yet- she was content with observing from the shadows, to see if someone else uncovered treasures she could steal for herself later. But before the congregation of wolves could devise a plan, the ground started to tremble, escalating into a violent shake that unearthed the very ground they stood on. The tunnels around them started to collapse, shifting like liquid, and threatening to bury them alive if they didn’t run.
Fleeing down a passage, Nimue barely dodged the falling debris, as the walls continued to fracture and crack like the tendrils of a writhing creature. Her canine was on her heels, the two of them tumbling into a larger cavern as the ceiling of the passage way behind them crumbled, sealing them in the underground. The cavern feels like an abyss- the lighting is bleak, but she can make out the figures of three other wolves.
A female calls out first, and shortly after, is a child's voice. Nimue doesn’t recognize them, and their scents aren’t familiar- but they are undoubtedly pack wolves. They all looked well-fed and taken care of. Flicking her tail, Nimue stays silent, wanting to use the ambiance of the cave to feed her information. Somewhere nearby, she could hear the faint trickle of water- a mocking reminder of the world outside.
