Whispers of the Gloomtide

You stand at the entrance of a cavern, where uneven stone steps guide you deeper into the shadows. The path is slick with the cool, damp air, and the soft sound of trickling water echoes off the jagged walls. To your left, a glowing river flows gently through the cave, its surface dotted with faintly luminous particles drifting downstream. The light within the water is the only illumination, casting an eerie but calm blue glow across the stone. As you move forward, the passage curves away into darkness, inviting you deeper into the unknown.
