It wasn't apparent from the stairs, but the very bottom of the ship is rather strange. The sides are made of some dark, muddy material that occasionally pulses as if alive. What could live being soaked in something that smells like bleach is up to debate, but probably nothing good.<br/><br/>It's also larger than it should be, as Azure's walked more than far enough to have crossed the upper deck twice, and she's barely getting to what looks like mid-deck. There are a few toppled brass spires, each tall enough that they shouldn't have been able to be brought down here in the first place. A pair of giant ballasts pump air uselessly, making thunderous noises with each expansion and contraction.<br/><br/>Well, whoever is down here certainly isn't going to have a chance in hell of hearing Azure approach. And when she finds him staring into a torch, currently burning green, he's probably not going to see her either.<br/><br/><br/>Wait, is he somehow sleeping?
