Drake contemplated about it "Though your idea sounds plausible I feel that there may be more to this, there are enough means to get food, especially if they can control vines as you have reported, but something the reptile said about a creator feels off"

Once the group reached the path they were surprised to find no vines inside it at all, though some small signs of plant live like specks of green on the walls were visible.
"wha the?" Mech said out loud "Dude there were vines here right?" he asked Aqua who was standing next to him.
"Hai, this is the correct path but it seems the vines have been removed or left, I do not know or understand which or how" she ended up replying.

Drake walked into the path first, examining it.
"you smell anything boss?" Symbio said.
Drake shook his head "due to the sewer stench I am unable to smell anything here"

Looking deeper in the path, even Drake had difficulties seeing anything past the immanent darkness.
"No lights huh" Symbio said to himself though loud enough that everyone can hear it.
