IC-Ep 2-Beneath the Surface(Leonek/Salem)

[Mr. Handy]

Leonek Novak,[b]Leonek[/b] propelled himself up the tunnel with the grace and ease of a fish. He soon surfaced in a cavern where very little sunlight penetrated from behind him, but once he ignited his lighter he was able to take a good look around. The tunnel opened up into a large, round chamber. Once he emerged from it, the water was only about two feet deep. It surrounded a raised dais of dry land in the middle, as if it were a moat. On the platform stood a rectangular altar made of obsidian with horns on its four corners. Three additional tunnels led out of this room. The one in the left wall and the one in the right wall both sloped downwards, where the water got deeper. There was another tunnel opposite the one through which he had entered. This one slanted upwards, rising out of the water. He had just about reached the end of his tether, and the rope wouldn't stretch beyond this chamber.

In the cave,[b]Leonek [/b]wasn't much of a geologist on a bright day, and in a dimly lit cave, he could barely make out his feet from his hands, let alone notice anything worthwhile about the lay of the land. [color=#FF0000]OOC:Both rolls failed [url]http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4240398/[/url][/color] He looked around and, cursing the shortness of the rope and against better judgement, undid the rope. [b]Leonek [/b]trailed his fingers over the altar as he passed by it, feeling a shiver pass down his spine as he does so. He looks back towards where he came from once more and starts the ascending the slope. [color=#FF0000]OOC: Am I correct in assuming the altar is about the size of the depression we found at the beach?[/color]
