Lore of the Underlings: Episode 5 ~ Into the Pit: Lore of the Underlings, #4

By John Klobucher

Welcome back to Lore of the Underlings, a trail of tales to the end of things, and maybe a bit beyond.

The lore continues. This episode tells of the travelers' plight -- the fate of John Cap, Morio, and Vaam -- after they take an unplanned tumble underground and deep, deep down... into the very bowels of the place called the Letting Pen. A place where anything could happen.

Things go from bad to worse for them, now stuck in the muck of a greedy pit, easy prey in this cavernous chamber of death. And then the black Guard himself makes the scene with an even more devilish scheme...

Lore of the Underlings is an epic poetry series from John Klobucher's lands of Lore. It's a bittersweet saga of gold and shadow told in classic style -- with old-world words but new-world wit. Fun for fans of puns and lyrical tongues!
