Description summary:
Description varies with Firmament level.

FirmamentDescription
60You plunge into the darkness, your mind whispering with the memory of vast [...] wings. Your limbs flail [...], the Gullet narrowing so each metre is punctured by the [...] impact of a ledge or wall.

There is so much darkness above you. And yet so very much more to go.

61-63You reach [...] and find only more of this slurry of soft [...] substance. You run your hands through it, [...] until at last, a flicker of recognition ignites.

Flesh [...]. It smells of tannin and pork. [...] Whomever these were, they are now your company in the dark.

64At last, movement. From the walls, a staccato Starved prayer. Someone is calling your name.
