Bruised but unbowed

    by: SWLatina Author IconMail Icon
As you step through the doorway, you pull out your flashlight from your bag, expecting the other side to get darker. Instead, the walls are covered with bioluminescent moss and lichens, giving you the equivalent of twilight lighting. Still, you keep your flashlight handy.

The corridor goes on for about twenty meters before it splits three ways. On the right is the same 'word' you discovered on the wall behind you. Next to it are three inverted triangles, one inside another inside the next.

On the middle corridor there is a new word, one that begins with something that looks like a mix between an 'L' and a fish hook, The pennant letter is next, though it has a fishhook at the bottom, There is the letter that is three horizontal lines split in half by a vertical line, and ending with the number seven letter. The tiny inverted triangle is inserted between the first and second letter, as well as the third and fourth letter.

You really wish that your future brother-in-law was here. He could probably tell you what all these words meant.

Next to the word on the center corridor were three horizontal lines. The top one was solid, the middle one was a series of dashes, and the bottom was dots.

On the corridor to the left was another word, that started off with a pair of the three horizontal lines divided by a vertical line letter, with each one of these on either side of an X inside a circle. These were followed by an upside down fish hook letter and the fish hook pennant letter, with an inverted tiny triangle between the third and fourth letter. And next to that word was an infinity symbol surrounded by an ellipse, which in turn was surrounded by another ellipse.
