Airs | Description |
---|---|
1–10 | The Starved Men have their own method of flight. Two oblong sacks […] inflated with God knows what. […] a kind of cage the Starved Men fit into; they then propel themselves from stalactite to stalactite, floating across. […] |
11–20 | You pass through a network of stalactites which are hollowed out like the turrets of a castle. It is better if you don't make eye-contact with the things peering out at you; they may take offence. |
21–30 | It's hard to look at: a smaller experimental balloon from London, caught on the jagged edges of an unseen stalactite. It has been deserted for some time. |
31–40 | You have already attracted attention. You attract more. A lone wandering Starved Man crawls 'spider-like' along the roof with you for some way. He passes behind a stalactite and you do not see him again. |
41–50 | The lights of some Unterzee port, far below and far away, serve as your guiding light: if you ever find yourself disoriented, look for that welcomed sight and turn the other way. |
51–60 | The stalactites here come down like a top row of teeth. They are impenetrable. Have the Starved Men encouraged them thus, as precisely as the topiary in a Regency garden? |
61–70 | Thick strands of rope, flayed apart, thud against the bridge window. You have seen such ropes elsewhere, used as bridges by the Starved Men. Yet now, you see no twisted visages peering out from the nearby stones. |
71–80 | A procession passes. A king crawls proudly before the rest; they are not bowed lower than he, nor any less capable. Yet there is an understood order. Yes; though they wear no garb and sing no songs, they are not foolish men. |
81–90 | A moon-miser crawls ahead, all gleaming glim, its powerful legs splitting into the roof to keep it from falling. Clara's scream rips through the zeppelin. |
91–100 | A cloud of bats are trapped in a net. Better them than you. |

4 | The song is farther away. |
3 | The song is almost mercifully distant. |
2 | You must strain your ears to hear the song. |
1 | After this, the song should fade into nothing. |
