Something funny... tried to get into the western abyss, but it was dark (she says she wouldnt enter without a light source) so went back searching for light :). then later on enetered the eastern part of abyss and, voila! there was light, so went through both parts of abyss until I got stuck at the green ball passage. so went back to an ancient turtle and back to the kelp forest, got nature form, and went back to all the green passages in the map and then to the one in abyss and... SURPRISE! abyss is dark again.
was it some sort of bug when there was light there?
at the same time the cave with shipwreck in kelp forest (the one I got the "treasure chest" from is now completely dark and some passage on north as well (dont know this one, cause its dark, but can only get there in nature form (something burns me in other forms) - should this one be dark as well or is it just another manifestationn of the same bug?
no spoilers please, I'm having so much fun exploring it by myself, just wanted to know if all is fine with my game
thanks a lot for reading - bit long, I know...

The Abyss should never be all lit up, and neither should the shipwreck in kelp forest - dunno what that other passage you mention is though.
Definitely bugged, but sounds like it fixed itself, so you can just keep playing I guess. Got a save file from when it was lit up?
-
Quick response, thanks very much!
I've got saves from the abyss but it is all dark when I try to play it now! so I guess it's fixed for good :)
And the other passage I mentioned - it is in the Kelp Forest, in the area where the Forest Sprite Cave is. In the top left (north-west) corner of that area - there is a narrow passage leading to the right (east) and at the end of that little passage there is a possibility to go further, but it is completely dark beyond - I did go, and got hurt (touched some creature? plant? - don't know, as it was completely dark), so I went again in nature form and it was safe then, but couldn't proceed, possibly because of some strong currents.

Maybe you should explore a bit more, until you find a real (and not bugged) source of light. Then go back to all those dark places you couldn't navigate before.

the first time I went through the Abyss, she warned me about not going down there w/o a light source, but I still went through like a ninny. I was using energy shots like echo location, freaking right out at the angler fish and so very happy when I finally bumped into a turtle, vowing not to come back until I had an actual light source :(
-
That sounds like either a bug, or your monitor suddenly got very very bright lol Sorry I shouldn't joke, so instead I will just suggest a lot more exploring upwards before you go down again :D
-
This must be the most awesome bug I've ever heard of so far. If you ever have this again, please screen shot it.
Further, have fun with the game. ^^

The Abyss is really tame without darkness (and just right with the sun form and powered up Dumbo Octopus) ;) For the purest Abyss experience, you need to enter the Abyss without Li, pets, or the sun form. :D
