A subterranean chamber, perhaps, or the hidden lair of some horrible beast -- this dark, forgotten place of dampness and decay. She moved on through the gloom, wary and confused, trying to figure out where she was, how to find her way out again.

Images jumped out at her, then faded again almost instantly, leaving only the vaguest of memories in their wake. She saw candles flickering over a deep red pool... clawing fingers through a glow of fire... drawings of beasts and the silvery glint of a cross.
