The buoyant essence in your body keeps you easily on foot and prevents any embarrassing trips on the way down. About (near as you can judge) half way down, there's a pair of little alcoves that have been hewn out of the earth, and fortified with something.<br/><br/>A few brass needles are littered around one of the alcoves. The other one is quite bare. Neither shows any signs of a person or animal standing on them.<br/><br/>You also notice a little pitfall of sorts. More like a mudfall really. There's an area that's been wettened enough that stepping on it, well without your essence flowing through you, all but the lightest of weights would cause the entire thing to fall down and bury you in mud.<br/><br/>It would also leave you down in the central pit below, which fumes with noxious smells. They definitely over-power any sense of awe you might have about the grand size of the pit, which seems to go miles and miles down, and is a few hundred yards or so across, roughly.
