Skye reached up, still barely unable to reach the hole. She muttered. "Sorry, Demi..." And pushed up, making a short jump. Her left hand caught it, and she hung there for but a second before, with a grating complaint, the door slowly pulled downward, apparently meant to be opened this way. Skye swung around to drop to the floor beside Demi, pushing the door the rest of the way down.
Laurelle looked up, shielding her eyes from the glaring shine of the torch. She shakily got to her feet, stumbling into Demi's arms. The light mage buried her face in her friend's shoulder, still sobbing. She tried to speak, but her words came out incomprehensible.
Skye shifted her weight uncomfortably, turning around to look at the rest of the room. It was a small, walled off section, with an empty doorway revealing another, similar section. The room Laurelle had been trapped in appeared to be a small armory, or bunker. On the back wall, there was a weapons rack that carried several spears, one of which was jarred loose and laying on the floor. There was an orbular stone hanging from the ceiling, set with a blue gem in the middle. The knight wondered if it had been built in the war that had supposedly led to Mageia's destruction.
