Dark Cavern Continued

From Tocs Eloc—Tribal Legend -translation of verbal telling by Cire Darb

Making his way around the icy underground pool of water he found a climbable pathway that lead back to the upper sections of the cave. Slowly he started to make his way up the steep dark rock face. Then a loud animal cry rang out from below him. Then another and then a another all in unison now. "oh god" He muttered aloud "There are more of them". He froze clinging to the rock hoping they wouldn't spot him in the darkness. But 2 of the Creatures backed away from their fallen comrade and began to walk in his direction then once they spotted him they began to run. He hastened his pace climbing the rock face pulling his way up the rocks as the Creatures quickly gained on him. His lost his footing and nearly fell sending a shower of loose rocks down toward his angry pursuers Regaining his balance he continued to pull his way up the rocks
