My latest story takes place inside a hollow Earth. I tend to overthink my explanations for how things work. For example, I am wondering how light would work in a hollow earth if the center of the Earth had a small, bright star suspended in the middle with a revolving layer of rock (or something else) that blocked 60 - 80% of the star's light (imagine a tennis ball with a slice cut out to make it look like a 3D Pac-Man). Good so far, right? Well what happens with the light that escapes? Would it simply bounce around inside hollow Earth so that it is never truly night/dark anywhere? Or would you still have areas of darkness and night?
