Life will find a way
One cocoon twitches; my screaming must have disturbed it. It’s followed by a sound like the shaking of a cobra’s tail. A dry rattle sends a shiver down my spine. The rest of the cocoons respond the same way, as if communicating with one another; the cave fills with rattling. The glow becomes stronger as they vibrate and bathes the cave floor in an eerie blue light.

The Inner Shadow
The sounds of so many different tones and pitches, all coming from different directions and all from the one big room. I’m definitely not used to this. Stood around a high table, I take a sip of my coffee, it’s disgusting but I drink it anyway.
