¨###¨##¨¨¨ no real  geometry in the caves.  you may #¨######¨¨
¨#¨¨##¨#¨¨ feel  as if  you are venturing into some ###¨¨¨¨¨#¨

¨#¨###¨#¨¨  submitting to an inescapable darkness,  #¨#¨¨¨¨###
####¨¨###¨ the  world around you becomes more  of a ¨###¨¨¨#¨¨
#¨¨¨#¨#¨¨# manifestation   of   your   mind,  or  a ##¨¨#¨¨##¨
##¨¨####¨# collective  mind,  with  a shape  and  a #¨#¨##¨#¨#

#¨¨#¨¨###¨ bring  a  candle  or  mount   electrical #¨¨¨¨####¨
##¨##¨#¨¨# lights,  the  walls   only   serves   as ##¨¨¨#¨¨¨#
¨¨##¨###¨# markers  to  where   the  tiny   spatial #¨#¨¨##¨¨#

####¨##¨¨¨ cave  is  actually  not the pockets, but ¨¨¨¨#¨#¨¨¨
