Chalk dust
It was truly a steel jungle. Rivets, rust, and I-beams were dangling all around, creating the most serene industrial imagery you could possibly imagine. It was an entire world of production and engineering, being torn down around us as we made our way upwards. Every now and then, we would encounter a lamp, or a break room, and it would lend us it's water and light for a couple of minutes.
We began to understand that the whole building would never be explored in our lifetime. There was an undeniable feeling that what we were seeing, was a once in a lifetime situation, and as much as we wanted to revisit, it wouldn't be the same.
Recycling our abundant energy, we took off with bright eyes to see the next bit of treasure around the corner, knowing something beautiful was only seconds away in any direction.
