Week 16 of the pregnancy journey — The Listener, An underground cavern of cascading waterfalls and turquoise pools

What happens in week 16

A vast cavern, waterfalls cascading from holes in the ceiling into turquoise pools far below. Stone bridges crisscross the space. Vegetation grows from the walls in defiance of stone. The Light between you draws something out of the water: a fish that doesn't quite look like a fish, watching you. Your partner laughs, surprised.
