The analyses of a text #1
A sorcerer, the protagonist got into his best friend Luke's dream about "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland."
He stepped down into the white rabbit hole, carrying Luke fainted, to evade a invincible Fire Angel.
They all now fall through the tunnel.
..................
A bad trip indeed. I was thinking of Random's words as we passed through the opening at a crazy angle, hit dirt, and rolled.
We had came to rest within a cave, near to its mouth. Tunnels ran off to the right and the left. The cave mouth was at my back. A quick glance showed it as opening upon a bright, possibly lush, and more than a little out-of-focus valley.
["Blood of Amber" of The Great Book of Amber by Roger Zelazny]
I'd like to know if "Random's words" refers to "A bad trip indeed."
And I'd like to know if "bright," "lush," and "more than a little out-of-focus" modifies "valley".
Thank you in advance for your help.
