Starved Men swarm the deck of the [Airship]. London's fleet is in disarray behind you. Rock pours from the Roof like rain.
[...]Description summary:
The second paragraph varies based on The Eye Opens.
The Eye Opens | Description |
---|---|
3 | Ahead, the eye turns, slowly, haltingly, out to gaze upon London. Within the shattered stalactite, something is screaming. |
6 - 8 | The skin covering the roof shivers. The Starved attendants redouble their efforts, their pace reaching a fever pitch. |
9 - 11 | Within and around the oculus, a great fleshy machinery flexes [...] Amber drips from taut ligaments as thick as tree trunks. The weapon's great, wet lens is pointed fully towards London below, now, just waiting to focus its first and only bright payload. |
12+ | Something moves upon the Roof above the oculus. A straining above the fleshy caul covering the rock. The sound of stone on stone. Above the eye, the Roof is coming apart. Your Starved assailants fill the air with ululations of triumph. |
