IMPORTANT NOTES: - CONTENT WARNING: This map contains extreme mature themes that some. may find disturbing. Player/viewer discretion is advised. - This map is extremely dark. Recommend playing this map in the dark or turning up the brightness on your monitor. - This wad uses Muusi's SoftFX mod, which is best utilized using the Software renderer. OpenGL may or may not work based on what source port you're using. - This wad uses a DEHACKED file and a LOT of sprite and sound replacements that are essential to the wad's function and artistic intent. It is STRONGLY encouraged to play this wad without mods. - It is also recommended you turn off textured automap in your settings. Many sections use silent teleports to create the illusion of looping corridors, and many other sections hide linedefs to mask surprises that would otherwise be prematurely spoiled.

PREAMBLE: There is a place for those blessed from damnation. A place where souls never grasp time. In these caverns of rot an infection grows, incarcerated in its incubator. There an ancient being resides festering. His body bearing a hideous resemblance of those who look upon him, and in the dark halls and crevices of these chambers does he mold Hell's new guard.

Few crumbs of Death's harvest abscond from this misery, only to find themselves somewhere else unwelcome. They speak of a voice that calls to them in that prison; an alien murmur of pain and anger whose choir rings through untold miles of viscera. Such tales of horrid tongues struggle to recount these words spoken to them:

'Enter my maw, oh ye of worn body and soul. My vitals shall guide you through me. Explore, if you will, your new home. I shall await, for your test of faith demands no exceptions.'

HINTS?: - The light is your guide. Shadows hold no mercy, so light will be spared for when you need it most. - Poor souls who run blindly find themselves lost and with a mouth full of bricks and broken teeth. - Maps do no good for places you cannot draw. - In an organism, essential nutrients are carried through tube-like structures in the body to vital organs. - Intrepid explorers find solice in their spoils. Beware, for treasures do not go unguarded or unwarrented.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: This stand-alone horror map took quite a lot of energy from me to make, but I think in the end it was worth it. Hope you enjoy playing it.
