Blackness shriveled.
The dark sillhouettes drew into a vision.
A vista of unknown realm spanned down
below – first falling down a slope ever steep,
and then bounding and sinking,
soaring and diving.
Unwavering twilight lay on the uncanny landscape.
Hither and thither, the undulate domain
was cracked and riven; meagre fissures and
great chasms scarred it, and thence spouted
unyielding streams of eerie mist.
