Reversal of time?
The team progressed through the tunnels exceptionally, and discovered that this place was really maze-like. They were just a fuzzy memory away from getting lost in here, and at some point, they even started admitting that it won't be easy to return back home.
The tunnels were identical, seemingly led nowhere whatsoever, and there wasn't even a spec of life to be seen so far. Putrid odors had become so common, that for a moment, they forgot what other things smelled like. This wasn't an easy journey!
"Do you think they'd try to sneak into Artakam themselves, if we waited for them long enough." Bardeelus asked.
He started feeling quite stupid. There should have been several other, safer ways to approach these tunnels, but he acted on impulse ever since last night. Bardeelus felt that he should've been more calculative, because they'll be utterly lost here the next minute, if they weren't lost already!
