Since the sun was sinking quickly, Boyce agreed to Lloyd's decision to check it out as a possible shelter for the evening.
It indeed was a cave and it was incredibly large, and the floor of the cave was relatively smooth, as far down as they could see.
Their curiosity was sparked by the looks of the cave opening, and they couldn't see any ledges or nooks until they went further into the cave. Then before them they saw a huge hole, that stretched into darkness. Normality, Boyce threw a rock into the hole but it was never heard hitting the bottom.
There was light in the cave since the entrance faced towards the west and the setting sun. They each took out their electric lights anyway, but the beams of light could not illuminate the other side, if there was another side.
To their right was a large road, seemingly joined to the smooth surface that ran through the entrance, so they began to walk on it.
"I wonder where this leads?" Boyce thought to ask, not expecting to be answered and especially with Lloyd's remark.
"Hell, maybe?" he replied.
This annoyed Boyce, but more from not really having a concept of what hell was supposed to be. He could not imagine that which had been described in legend since the dawn of man _ both times.
He sometimes shone the light onto the wall to their right and Lloyd shone his straight ahead so that they wouldn't fall into nothingness if the road was to suddenly end.
"Maybe we should head to the entrance, Lloyd. We have been here for some time."
