A Temporary Refuge

The Black Void - Episode 6175

First I try pulling on the handle, but nothing happens. So I push instead, and the door opens. Since I have spent several minutes in total darkness, the light spilling out from the room behind the door dazzles me for a moment.

As my eyes adjust, I see that the door opens into a storeroom of some kind. There are lots of wooden shelves stacked with large cardboard boxes. In the middle of the wall opposite to me is another door, currently closed. The room is lit by a fluorescent strip in the ceiling, which once my eyes have adjusted I realise is actually not all that bright.

Since I seem to be safe here for the moment, I take the time to examine some of the boxes, hoping to find something of use or that might give me some clue to what is going on. The first box that I look in contains:

  1. A submachine gun. Now if I could just find some ammunition...
  2. Clothing, probably intended for the "slaves".
  3. A strange device that I cannot identify.
  4. Snall bottles which rattle when I shake them. I think they must contain pills of some kind, thouigh the labels on the bottles mean nothing to me,
  5. Actually, I never find out, as just as I begin opening the box the door across from me opens.
