Water drips in rivulets down the dark shale walls that are illuminated by the fitful burning oil-filled ewers that dangle from support rafters high above. Echoing ocean sounds rumble down the passage, while a chill breeze tugs cobwebs and clinging dust from their perches in the various crags and cracks of the ceiling. A broad shale ledge lines the eastern edge, its smooth surface covered with wares.

[Once from a Soul, Foci - 27539]
Perpetual and pervasive, the roaring sound of the ocean striking stone is thunderously loud as it tumbles over the shale walls and heralds an ambient breeze that plucks at the tattered fabric of tapestries draped from high rafters. Wrought iron cages bind fitful torches in place, the constantly moving flames creating dancing shadows throughout the dank space. Antiquated chairs surround a trivial firepit burrowed deep into the gravel and sand-covered floor, while a warped and waterlogged cupboard occupies a small space on the eastern wall.

Once from a Soul, Vapor Shadow

[Once from a Soul, Vapor Shadow - 27541]
Billowing heat spills from pillar-shaped fumaroles that rise of out azure and aquamarine pools along the northeastern edge of the cavern, the air growing thick and noxious with moisture and sulfur-laced warmth. Small barriers of rolled stones, many displaying dried out barnacles along their jagged surfaces, form a barrier to lapping waters.

Once from a Soul, Chill Spectre

[Once from a Soul, Chill Spectre - 27542]
Several stark white chalk drawings decorate the shale walls, which glisten in the flickering torchlight as if covered in ice. Indeed, a pervading chill further dampens the air while hoarfrost creeps along ivory-hued stalactites that dangle like icicles from the distant ceiling. A frayed grey rug keeps an iron-bound driftwood rack and a stuffed cotton mannequin relatively protected from the moist floor but does nothing to lessen the sound of dripping water that bounces about the space.

Once from a Soul, Absent Shade

[Once from a Soul, Absent Shade - 27540]
Wind rushes over cracks in the ceiling, stealing the air from the small cavern with a whooshing force that sets loose fabric fluttering and torches guttering as they struggle to stay lit. Wrought iron railings encircle a conical crystalline structure that dominates the pitted shale floor, while worn depressions in the floor carry tiny rivulets of salt water towards the back walls. An ornate rack fashioned of ebonwood and steel is lifted by oak planks off the moist ground to protect it from rotting, as is a decorative black lacquer wardrobe.
