Cave rising

What is recorded here

That is a living place, not a dead hole, and it must be judged by the sea of air inside it. Whether the water rises from below or overflowes from above, the cave still breathes through clay and stone. People may have drunk from it, feared it or simply watched it swallow their shadows.
