Into the Depths: Investigating the Shimmering Shore Tunnels (Group 3)

The group regains their footing, in the process Fable finding the strength to possess a third companion in the process (item has been placed on your OOC account). The moment is short-lived, though, as a strange haunting sound begins to echo from all around them. It's a low rumble that sends small tremors rippling throughout the floor of the cavern, and loose bones and debris, once firmly lodged into the dirt walls, come flying loose.

A deafening boom can be heard as they edge forward, as a large figure emerges from the cloud of dirt and dust- the grotesque figure is marked by its wide fleshy body and otherworldly glow that illuminates the cavern faintly. Its body gyrates slightly as it orients toward the group of trapped explorers, each movement ridding its hardened body of pebbles and debris crusted on.

Centered on the monstrosity's head is a single bulbous eye, cross-shaped pupil dancing back and forth rapidly. Its gaze finally locks onto the group, the fleshy petals surrounding its eye furling and unfurling again, as if blinking. There's no mistaking the way it zeroes in on the group, its aggressive intent clear.
