You nearly jump out of your skin and turn in the direction of the
sound. Though you search wildly through the pitch black, you cannot
make out the voice's owner.
Almost immediately, you hear the sound of a match being lit and a
flame erupts in front of you.
A pair of eyes stare out from an alcove in the cave wall. They are
cold and unblinking.
As the creature steps closer, you notice it is not an alcove at all.
There is a tunnel now, barely big enough to fit it's occupant.
The stranger swiftly lights his small oil lamp, casting light across
both your faces. You can now see who it
is.
