Mausoleum

Maru Mausoleum

Moving in the dimness of the cemetery bluish light Alexis and Gonyaul, followed the strange cave dweller, Tar, deeper into the man made rows of tombs and crypts.

For almost an entire watch, they walked slowly and without a sound, leaving footprints into the dusty floors hoping that what they treaded was indeed dust and not ash from bones. A world of light and dark greeted them at every corner, casting impossible shadows into a low hanging ceiling and black mouthed tombs The ancient lantern chains, though evenly spaced and sparely positioned, flayed the open spaces, forming curtains across the grim distances.

Despite the brilliance of the lights all around them from the luminescent plants and vines, the darkness appeared to grow ever more bold. And the mighty Mausoleum gaped on and on.

Suddenly between to crypts they came upon a man, he was kneeling in plain of dust, his face bowed to the ground. He held on to a hand a severed hand.
