It is impossible to determine any kind of directions from here as the
darkness threatens to chew away every last scrap of light, like a hungry
monster searching for blood.  The floor squishes and squirms like an
animated creature.  Huge mounds of algae?  Or is it really alive?  
A thorny, red-veined vine twines its way around your feet.

A malformed rat bares its fangs at you.
