Darian and Alice continued deeper into the basement, Darian holding the red light in front of him while Alice pointed her light at his feet. The stairs were slick with years of moisture and mold forming on them. As the couple continued their descent there were more and more signs of combat against Grimm. Scorch marks from dust spells still burnt onto the walls. Half melted skeletons still in their armor. Broken and melted weapons and shields scattered about the stairs and connecting hallways.

After several more minutes of silence Darian and Alice reached the lowest level of the building. It was a single small room with a square pit in the middle of the room. Walking over to the pit the pair could make out a large circular hole with the melted remains of steel bars surronding the opening. "I'd say thats where the Grimm got in," Darian stated as he looked down at the melted remains of the grate.

Alice nodded as she focused her light on the opening to the storm drain. From beyond the opening she could hear the soft sounds of running water. "This would have to run all the way into the ocean," Alice surmised. "The Grimm probably came in from there and made their way through the entire town that way."

"Great..." Darian bemoaned as he inspected the hole. "Hey Helena, these people we're reconning for, they kinda want to use this gate wall as a base right? If so I think we should blow this drain opening and cave it in for the time being. Better to deal with a little flooding rather than Grimm coming in to munch the people inside."

Alice nodded in agreement before remembering to speak up so her mom could hear her. "I think that'd be the smart thing to do. Make it safe for people to stay in here and avoid the Melting Grimm."
