the oil-soaked torch. The flame came to life, causing her to look away from the
sudden brightness and shut her eyes. When she opened them again, she was

was refracting through the crystals growing out of the walls and ceiling. The
myriad shapes and colors sent rainbows bouncing across the uneven chamber.
Studying the chamber floor, Eva was unable to find a safe route to the exit on
the other side. It was littered with broken crystals.
