Tiny was more than happy to abandon his post for something more exciting and I think Crinis was just relieved she was able to return to me without something dramatic occurring, such as me being sucked through a black hole into the hundredth strata, if that even exists. With the gang assembled, we set off into the deeper tunnels and it was rapidly apparent that things were starting to heat up within the frozen spaces of the second strata. Monsters were fighting everywhere. Shadow beasts in various states of evolution and all sorts of other critters filled every nook and cranny that we came across, either fighting or consuming the Biomass of the opponent in the fight they'd just won. When we slid close to an expanse, the number of monsters we ran into climbed even higher until there was a full on mob that we'd need to physically push through if we wanted to move forward. We weren't interested in getting into an expanse, I know how crazy those places get during a wave, all we wanted was the experience.
