There is a lull in the shaking, allowing me to gain my footing on the smooth lava rock. This cave appears to have been formed by flowing magma over the course of time. Perhaps a lava tube under what could be a dormant volcano. I could speculate my location all day if I so desired, but doing so wouldn’t lead to escape. Again, all I can do is move deeper into the cavern and hope for an exit.

My prayers are soon answered as I stumble across what appears to be part of a mine shaft. The stone lining the walls has been chiseled and carved away by hand, and in following this tunnel I come across more and more man-made structures. If my ears aren’t playing tricks on me, I think I can hear voices ahead.

The tunnel ends abruptly, leaving me to lay eyes upon a rather strange sight. Directly connected to the mine, and by extension the remains of a lava tube sits a house—no, a palace if I were to judge it by size alone. Am I above ground, I wonder?

“Ah, you there,” says a voice to my rear, “Who are you, and what are you doing in my house?”

A strange woman looks down upon me from a railing above. The stained-glass window at her back casts an ethereal light over the both of us, but through it I can distinctly see a smile creeping onto her face.

He has a reputation? He's a jerk 90% of the time when posting with his name.

How interesting. I thought I was the only one who had seen Koishi in such a way. Her backstory is quite melancholic. It makes her very appealing. The same could be said for her sister, actually. I think that she's an EX boss is the main contribution to her popularity though.
