Re: In the Sunken City of...?(Jessica/Tiffanian)
Jessica actually turned and waved goodbye to the octopus as it fell behind for good, and then quickly continued onward and downward, into the depths of the ocean. A large school of fish passed over them at one point, blotting out the sun instantly and completely, making the mermaid shudder a little bit in the darkness. Even after they were past, it was getting quite dark as they journeyed on, until finally Tamara turned on her little headlamp. It didn't penetrate terribly far into the blackness, though it did reveal that they had almost reached the sea floor. It was more or less empty, with little valleys that seemed to go down a long way further from time to time, and sometimes little mountains that almost reached the surface... Finally the nerdy girl saw a ring of light over a hill ahead of them, which could have come from only one source. "Almost there" she said somewhat enthusiastically, eager to see the city for the first time.
