章 190: Infectious Determination

"Doevm," a voice said, pulling Doevm out of his chasm of memories. He turned away from the broken bed. Everyone had finished scouring the building with nothing to show for it, so they went out the back. Past the sunken graveyard, whose headstones had been erased with time, was a mountain. Doevm held up the map and nodded. "We're here."

The side of the mountain was mostly overgrown with brownish-green vines and ancient trees. Roots stretched into the smallest cracks in the stone mountain. Everything was just how Doevm had remembered it; everything except for the holes. Some of the ancient trees had been ripped out, exposing dark, circular entrances, caves matching the description of Doevm's map. Glancing at the few trees at the base of the mountain, Doevm found fungi running down the decaying trunks.

So the experiment begins. In case you guys are wondering, the experiment is the hardest part of the arc for me to write. Not that I don't know what's going to happen, I just need to write it in a way that is digestable. It is the collection of scenes, such as the ones to follow, that I have the least experience in writing. HOWEVER, please keep in mind that I am me. I will jump headfirst into this challenge or die (or more likely have to rewrite five or so chapters) trying. This entire series has two important goals for me: (besides the main goal, to take your heart and beat it over the head with a bat made of feels) to grow an audiance, and to grow as a writer. Time to grow, my favorite part.
