Reads: FIRST FLOOR: THE MAW The rigid pathway leading from the entrance will carry the adventurers down to the next set of doors. Around our heroes will be walls of crimson stone marked with jagged white stalactites and stalagmites. The bodies of other wanderers and adventurers can be found littering the floor. Some are pierced to the white stones or trapped between them. Eagle-eyed PCs will recognize this is built similar to a mouth, like the massive serrated jaws of a lamprey. The road itself it not unlike a tongue. Offer a chance to stray from the path and loot some of the corpses lying around the red canyon. The stones around the path appear slick. Players may notice that it reacts to their movement. Roll to see what the PCs find on the bodies.

Except from the book "Zoo City" by Lauren Beukes. Of relevance is the paragraph that reads "He waves a hand vaguely in the direction of the ashtray. There are a couple of video game boxes lying next to it, starring flesh-eating undead and aliens. One, Grand Theft Auto VI: Zootopia, features a badass in a hoodie, packing a shotgun with a snarling Panther by his side."

A tradwife with her hands in the air. Around her is the overlay of a TikTok UI. Below, the handle "athomeonpurpose" and the description "I'm not sorry, I'm not [winky-smile]" and the hashtags "homeschooling" and "largefamilies" [although largefamilies is cut off]. Above her, the caption has been edited so that it reads "Me when BANDCAMP FRIDAYS, JORKIN' IT, & having "ARIZONA ICED TEA" is outlawed." The Arizona Iced Tea is a picture of an actual can of the infamous beverage.
I don't even know where to begin. It's a bunch of members of the Whitebeard Pirates from One Piece. There are some standard pirate-types in this picture of about a dozen or more people rushing towards unseen foes on the right of the page. But then there are some people that I can't explain, like the half-man half-walrus drawing a sword on the bottom left, or the six-armed man wearing an octopus and brandishing swords in each hand, or the guy with the panda cowl. There's also a robot pirate with clamp hands and someone who looks like a 1950s mobster, and someone on the top left with a pig's house and a huge white hat covering his face? In the centre of the page is a man in a suit and a black coat with white frills on his ankles, with long pink hair and a spider tattoo on his forehead. Basically what I'm saying is the Marineford Arc in One Piece is amazing. Every chapter introduces another dozen freaks and you just have to accept that they're there.

IDOLS: "What do you like?" PANEL 02: Close-up on said man. ROB: "Monster movies, but more than that:" PANEL 03: The middle-aged man on his knees weeping. The Idols, in a super-simplistic form, look on in stunned silence. The skull is next to the man, and floating by his head is a thought bubble containing a woman making a kissy-face. ROB: "OFFICE LADIES!~" NARRATIVE BOX: "Rob-san is not an idol."
A man lying on his back with two kanji columns floating over his prone form. They read 「本日 の 勝敗:ロブさん の 敗北」, which translates to "Today's Results: Rob's Defeat."
The Echidna sculpture by Pirro Ligorio from 1555. Depicts a bare-breasted woman with her serpent-like legs splayed open.
