Refract - 4

The group goes out to gather materials for their base, stripping metal, bags and other containers from the crashed airplane they found a while ago. Once they had it carried back, they met up with Erin at the site of the chasm. They decide to head down there, one by one, finding its properties to be quite alien, indeed. Light of any kind is extinguished, sound was muffled and their sight was plagued with grim, foreboding visions of torment - all of which progressively getting worse as they traversed this strange realm. After enough time, a thin pallid light from above illuminates something, someone - a man named Harold. They exchange pleasantries and brief conversation, proving Harold to be an upstanding member of society. He states that he, too, was an inhabitant of Eventide, before he was exiled, forced to make his new home in what the three of them see to be an endless abyss at the bottom of a chasm. As a parting gift, Harold bestows upon them a mark, allowing to travel to and from his home with ease. Once they reach the surface, they quickly realize two weeks have passed. The three of them collect themselves, explaining to the rest of the group why they went missing for all that time. Further preparations are made, but unfortunately, none of them include a psychiatric ward.
