Hitting Rock Bottom

I made it to the bottom of the ravine with carefully carved steps in the stone. There was a lot of ore showing in the walls around me. Waterfalls flowed from several underground wellsprings. Infected had found their way here too.

Two things I took great interest in, and they were both purple and glowy. The first was an odd crystal that infused itself through the stone. I could literally see the energy pulsing through it. When I dug it out, I managed to salvage some of the crystal formations within the rocks.

The second were eyes. Purple glowing eyes in the distance. The creature who's head they shone from couldn't be one of the infected, for it was far too long and lean. It's skin was charcoal. It made a sound, I can only describe it as a "gorp", and it picked up bits of the terrain, grass, dirt, rocks. I think it was interested in studying what it was taking. The most amazing thing about it, however, was that it teleported just before I had the chance to really get a good look at it.

I continued searching the cavern for useful ores and crystals. I kept my ears sharp for the usual- clinking of bone from skeletons, wet flesh sloshing off zombies, shrieking of spiders, hissing of creepers.. and now, the gorping of the strange purple eyed men.
