A vast abyss lay at the end of this alleyway.
Fenna reached the edge of the abyss, where the alleyway abruptly ended. The ground and the ceiling seemed to have been devoured by some invisible force, disappearing ahead, and the neatly cut opposite edge was met by such a vast and empty darkness that even she, the Judge, felt an immense pressure. The instinctive fear of humans in the face of such immense dark spaces surged like a tidal wave.
Morris also arrived at the "entrance" to the abyss, raising his lantern. However, the light emitted by the specially made underground lantern seemed to be directly swallowed up—the light did not disappear, but due to the excessively vast space ahead, there was nothing on all sides to reflect it, causing the lantern's brightness to diminish in the dark. Eventually, it only lit up a steep slope descending from the side of the pit, leaving the rest shrouded in darkness.
