Seventh Interlude - Part Eight

Brock walks for a good ten minutes before he finds himself faced with a glass wall. Beyond the glass is not more cave, but corridor instead, with white painted walls and linoleum floor. To his left, mounted at waist height on the wall, is a simple key pad. Brock sniffs at the glass, taps it, pushes it, sniffs again then examines closely its edges that disappear into the wall. Sighing, he holds his block in front of the key pad for a moment, then types in the eight digit number it reveals to him. With a gentle whooshing sound the glass disappears into the wall. He sniffs again, noting the air beyond smells cleaner, before stepping forward. Several paces on and the glass wall slides back into place behind him.
