Kuk's lair wasn't without its own strange beauty. While many parts of it were made of some kind of twisted black stone, almost organic-looking in nature, many other parts were made of beautiful crystal in blues, purples, pinks, and reds.
The only thing ugly about those crystals were the vaguely humanoid (and not-so-humanoid) shapes imprisoned inside.
There were also places that were clearly living quarters and gathering places in this place that ranged from "comfortable" to "opulent." Silk wall hangings, plush couches in colorful fabrics, even TVs and video game consoles - the whole deal.
And the food! The smell of it permeated this place. Baked goods, deliciously cooked meats, pies and cakes. Clearly, anyone that lived here never went hungry, especially given that their very nature as myths meant they didn't need to eat.
Alex and Azula led Istas through the twisting crystals that had the dark shapes of figures strapped inside.
"These are the people that've tried to stop It," Alex said. "It keeps them alive, at least. It plans on - well, It can tell you about that himself, how It plans on letting them live when everything's over. Even with eating this world, It doesn't plan to let everyone that lives in it die."
