12th September – setting description

We have been learning about writing setting descriptions.

In the distance, he could still hear the dripping sound of water above the misty, mossy and pitch abyss. As he approached the temple, he could hear the raven’s eerie voice beckoning him to his doom. His hands rubbed against the misty, dusty walls. Without hesitating, he took a deep breath and approached the dark, masked obsidian temple with no emotion. Nervous but brave, he ripped the cobwebs of his face to see.

He could feel the cold water soaking his head above him. Outside of the temple, the light shone like the lustrous, gleaming, moon. The flaming torch whirled around the dark , damp , mossy wall. Every step he took, he could hear the sticks break as they shatter under his feel; he knew danger was ahead.

As he went around the corner the luminous, gleaming object was glowing in the corner of the corner of his eyes. THE IDOL!

    This is a great post I like the last sentence when you used the adjectives luminous and gleaming. Next time maybe describe the walls a bit more.
