Down Below

It was about time he visited the Deluge again. The small crack in the earth that led to a very beautiful spot...where Ixionn liked to seek peace and silence. There were many pools there, too, with a stream and plenty of space to just wander. He found the spot when he was out talking a little walk away from home. The boy saw a bothersome bug that was rather large in the grass, and it kept zipping around Ixionn. Finally he had tried to catch it and smash it as quickly as possible. But it ran straight into the crack of the earth- where the Deluge was. Out of curiosity, Ixionn followed the bug, and ended up in one of the smaller glowing pools. From there he just wandered around and took a moment to absorb the peace and silence. Now here he was...looking to go to that place again. Maybe his wounds would heal faster?
Though, once he got there, rosy-hued male was standing in front of the entrance, with his head down and his eyes firmly fixed into the dark space. Ixionn let out a loud, obnoxious laugh, before skipping up to the stranger cheerfully and prodding him softly. As he were going to push him in. But he had touched him way to softly for that to happen, of course. Ixionn smiled and fixed his eyes onto the Deluge as well. "It's pretty down there, believe it or not." Ixionn grinned and shuffled to the right, before squeezing through the little space and jumping down into the crack. It was dark, but the little pools nearby lit the space.
"You should come down here and see for yourself." The masked boy laughed again and slithered through the space energetically, having a slight bounce in his step as he neared the many pools and streams. It was weird...like lights. Shining against the walls of the underground space in a vivid blue pigment. Once again, he felt at peace. And he nearly forgot about the rosy stranger outside.
