Oh! The first friendly greeting they’ve received-…..or maybe not.

Blinking down at the small bug, they leaned downwards, towering over the other.

“Help? I’m not sure i need help…Well now that i think about it…..Where am i? I’ve strayed from the surface and trees and found myself in this quaint town…”

"You... from where now?"

Surface? Trees? No wonder this guest was confused, how did he even get down here?

She craned her neck upwards in an attempt to maintain eye contact.

"Well... this is dirtmouth... just above the old kingdom. You've strayed very far indeed to find yourself here if you came from the surface. I..."

She was suddenly very aware of the mostly bare shelves around her. How embarrassing... someone from above would surely have seen far greater libraries than this.

"If you have any questions, I will do my best to help you find your answers..."

Bioluminescent glow worms turned these 30-million-year-old caves into alien skies.

For the past year, photographer Shaun Jeffers has explored what lies beneath the surface of the Earth. Specifically, he’s focused on the Waitomo area of New Zealand and its mesmerizing underground limestone caves. In them, glow worms—tiny creatures that emit a powerful phosphorescent shine—illuminate the pitch black cavern, putting on a spectacular show that looks out of this world.

Integrating into a new society isn’t…easy. Especially for a bat that towers two inches higher than most of the residents. 

Vesper was fear at first. Finally walking through the town of Hollownest, the outsider peered thoughtfully at the surroundings while the few residents there looked from shop windows or around corners, unsure of this new addition. 

Making their way to a tucked away building, Vesper sat down for a moment, his nose twitching as he took in the rich underground air.

Had... had someone actually come in? Eris had opened the doors to her sparsely filled library nearly a month ago and so far the only visitor she'd had had been the elder bug popping in because a light was on and no one had told him anyone had moved in.

But that debacle was another story...

Rushing towards the front desk, she managed to let out a quick, "hello! Is there something is can..." before realizing who or what her guest was.

"Oh my... I... did... c-can I help you?"

Meet Eris, a recently moved in Dirtmouth resident who has taken it upon herself to start piecing together the tattered history of the once great society that lies below.
