The cavern was definitely man made. It was the one thing that was apparent to both Peter and Adri. That the creatures whatever they were, were only using something that was already there. It wasn't a sewer either, it was some kind of underground cavern used for something they couldn't figure. With the ceiling being soft enough for someone to be pulled through, but still maintain hardness for people to walk through. The more they traveled the seemingly endless cavern, the more they were certain this was what they had been sent to put an end to. Eventually the man made tunnels gave way to an older more natural foundation and that's when they noticed the webbing. It was thick and covered everything. Among the webs were bones and dried husks of people.
"Fire god be damned its a lair of huge spiders." Adri spit it out. She hated spiders, hated them like nothing else.
"We don't know that, other insects have we... oh shit." They hadn't noticed it at first, but just past where they had come in was a rather large black spider, it appeared to be sleeping, but Peter knew as soon as it sensed disturbance on the web it would attack.
"So we can just pull back get a ticket to a new planet and start over right?"
"No Adri we are the voice of our god, we have to do something about this, people are dying."
"Peter you are such a kill joy." Peter was about to touch the web when the Fire God herself made an appearance.
"And how is my voi,, holy shit that's a big gods damned spider."
