We weren’t ready for darkness so overwhelming.
It was unlike anything we’d ever encountered, an abyss illumined only by our headlights, on a road that swerved without signposts. Danger enveloped us. In the shadows, we glimpsed the remains of the unlucky ones.
Would we make it through, or would we be unlucky too? How much longer would this take? Would this tunnel ever end?
It felt as though the walls were closing in on us. We were running low on gas. We were running low on hope.
But then, ahead in the distance, a needlepoint of light pierced the darkness.
