In the cold, suffocating interiors of the Caves, darkness reigned supreme—consuming every nook and cranny with an eerie silence that felt alive. Shadows crept like predators across the jagged walls, and within that abyss, where no sunlight dared to intrude, thrived abominations of nature—beasts twisted by evolution or something far worse. Among them lurked one of the most fearsome: the Abyssal Beast.
But the darkness held more than monsters.
Deep within a secluded chamber of the cave, one that arched high above the ground with a ceiling nearly fifty feet tall, a strange contrast unfolded. Here, illuminated by the sterile glow of flickering fluorescent lights, were lines of computer systems and humming equipment. The area looked bizarrely modern—almost like a hidden laboratory carved from stone.
