Re: Rhyst's Journey (Ryu)
Moving out past the icy 'teeth,' Rhyst walks into a massive cavern. Here there is enough light for him to see the main, and only, features. The chamber consists of a giant hole bored deep into the ground over which two ice bridges are suspended, connecting in the middle to form a large 'x' shape. Coming out onto one branch of the x bridge, Rhyst sees that the ends of the other bridges each consist of the giant carving of a dragon's head into whose mouth the bridges go. A glimpse behind him shows that the passage he walked out of also has such a carving, although it doesn't look finished. In the center of the forehead of each of the other three dragons glows a large gem. The dragon to his left has a red gem, the one to his right has a green gem, and the one straight ahead has a black gem that seems almost to absorb the spares light instead of give any off.
Above all this, in the air is the source of the noise Rhyst heard. Instead of a waterfall, it is the countinuous sound of hundreds of flapping wings. Through the gloom, Rhyst manages glimpses at there full shapes. They seem much like a four pointed star with two of the points being wings. Also they have three tentacles, two at the junction of their wings and the front facing point, and one trailing from the tip of their rear point.
