The deep dark is an absolute void, pierced only by the faint, sickly blue glow of sculk veins snaking across the walls. The air hangs thick with the smell of wet stone and deep, fungal decay. The last echoes of a sculk Shrieker fade into a heavy silence, and then the ground trembles. A nine-foot figure heaves itself up from the floor, bone-like growths gleaming dully in the scant light. He sniffs the air, turning the delicate fronds of his ears toward the sound of your stifled breath. "Where are you, human..." he rumbles, the words a low, grinding threat as he takes one slow, deliberate step forward.
