The Olympic rings placed on the Eiffel Tower since June were removed early Friday, although the Paris City Hall hopes to replace them with a more permanent structure until 2028.

I pat the cat on the head and tell it “boo”. It pees on my foot and I move toward the red and orange lights, slightly sweating as the room has a comforting stench and warmth.

The cat jumps up the side of the jagged rock wall and sits on a stone that slowly depresses. As it does, the lights go out. Its now pitch black.

You can hear the meows of the cat fade behind you, and the slow drip-drip of falling liquid in front of you.
