Solid wooden beams line the walls and support the ceiling as you step down thankfully stair-shaped wooden slats supporting the rails down here. The slope is steep, steep enough that it would be a nightmare to bring heavy down on the handtruck gently. It descends into darkness, with no light visible at the bottom. Holding your flamberge in front of you defensively, you carefully step down, deeper.
After what feels like over a minute of walking down the shaft, you look back up. You're not that far from the surface, but the black depths of this pit are not lit in the slightest. There's no lightbulbs or anything of the sort, at least not here. You reach for your flashlight.
"Not yet," Your operator cuts you off. "I switched your camera view to thermal... it's warm down here. Rely on your ears for now. I'll guide you."
Walking in darkness is not something you're totally unfamiliar with, but the tight quarters are very much unwelcoming. Brandishing the flamberge tip down, handle up, halfswording it as you step down, you strain your ears to listen for anything, any sign of life that's not you.
"Walk carefully. Quietly. You're coming up on the bottom. It makes a right turn."
There it is, even ground. It catches your foot by surprise, and you nearly stumble. Well, it's as even as even as it gets. Bumping into a beam, there's something odd you notice as you look back up. Not a single source of light in this whole corridor. Not even an snuffed-out candle. Light is something they do not want to give off, even this far away from the surface.
"Take a look. I need to see how far this tunnel goes.."
<span class="mu-b">This manmade tunnel, though boring straight through solid earth, feels much less natural than the old, old stormdrains underneath Helsinki. That was forgotten about, and things would live and die beneath it. This is a venue of traffic. This is a dark alleyway. This tunnel is where some crook might plant a knife in your side. Thankfully, Sigrun has left you more <span class="mu-i">Cunning</span> than the average Trollslayer.</span>
