THE MYCONAUT

“She turned to look back one last time at the safety of her camp, before venturing further into the humid depths of the fungal grove. Delicate spores drifted lazily around her as she weighed the wavering odds in her mind. All the data that she had extracted from the surrounding node-stools pointed to this location, although she knew all too well that this place had a way of playing tricks on even the most seasoned of Myconauts. This was it, her big score. No turning back now.”
