Center of the Earth Visitor Center
A visitors' center for a cave system recently rediscovered underneath the City of Austin Texas. The labyrinthine system of caves and tunnels is only partially explored. The cave system's first explorers noted many years ago that "some cave passageways have been observed to lead toward the very center of the earth".
Along with Austin Batcave, Legge Lewis Legge are concepting and designing the Center, as well as assisting with mapping and rendering cave and tunnel interiors from descriptions recorded long ago when the caves were first discovered.

'Firebug', a strange relative of the cockroach that exhibits flames exhuding from thorax and abdomen. Found only in the deeper caves and passageways. Seems to gain or lose energy relative to proximity with earth's center or surface.
