To and through the heart

Thanks!!

The wolf approached, and while Salamander did not relax entirely, did not grow hostile as their proximity decreased. She sized him up as he moved, trying to study his figure in the dark, and then inevitably gave up when she couldn't really see much in the darkness. When they were side-by-side he spoke, but she remained silent - slipping away from him and leading him down the corridor. With the other wolf at her back, Salamander was a bit tense; she didn't know if she could trust him yet. But, as she began to question her own judgement about exploring this strange corridor, the cave opened up around her. Instead of being two bodies wide, the mountain hall became tenfold that, and further - spanning a great distance all around, with stone teeth rising as spires from the floor to the ceiling and back again. As if she had stepped out of a great beast's very throat. She stopped then, and turned to face her golden companion - a look of utter surprise upon her face.
