Archibald
Archibald, a young man from earth's surface, is mistakenly brought to a subterranean civilization, and is thrust into a class conflict where weapons built with a strange element threaten to destroy the entire population. Faced with the choice of helping the very civilization that robbed him of his life above, or dying with them, Archibald's world is turned upside down.
Excerpt:
"Arch gazed at the flower, captivated by its oddity and size. Just as he turned to go back through the tunnel, he noticed a dull light coming from inside the petals. It was so faint he thought it was just his eyes playing tricks, but as he stared, the glow became unmistakable.
He slowly stepped closer to the light, which began to illuminate the petals as its glow grew. Light started to hit the stone in the enclosure, illuminating the walls to reveal engraved writing. But Arch only saw the flower. He looked inside the petals, at the peculiar, soft, captivating radiance. It rolled and flickered like a living flame across the golden petals.
Arch didn't sense the outer leaves of the plant, which he stood on, slowly rise, lifting him closer to the light. He vaguely sensed a smell, a smell that put his mind in a faraway place.
And then darkness."
