Description summary:
The description varies based on the Airs of the Labyrinth. After The Games Approach reaches 312, an extra paragraph may also be added based on the Sixth Coil: Verbs.

Airs	Description
1 – 19	You crawl on your belly under barbed wire, slowly making progress.
20 – 39	A bullet whips past you as you run forward. An enemy sharpshooter?
40 – 59	Dogs barking in the distance. Searching for someone. You, perhaps.
60 – 79	Your ankle nearly twists into a muddy ditch. Watch your step.
80 – 100	As you run down the length of a narrow trench, you hear the clamour of soldiers all around – a lieutenant barking orders; conscripts desperately reloading. You see no-one, however.

Verb	Second Paragraph
11 – 20	From afar – as if through a dream – you hear the Cackling Mechanic curse. All is silent, afterwards.
31 – 40	In a glint of mirror you catch sight of the Patient Mastermind's reflection. When you look closer, there is no mirror there at all.
51 – 60	Blood on the floor. The Weeping Mercenary has passed through here – or something worse.
71 – 80	From around the corner you hear the Bohemian Sculptress' musical laugh. She is, of course, not there.
