“Yes! Of course!” Liam gasped out, although clearly being slightly crushed by Rithrynn’s powerful grip. A moment later a sense of weightlessness enveloped the elf, as their downward plunge ended abruptly to start drifting gently down the vertical shaft. 

“ELUUUUNE – gotcha!”

One of the Night Elves in a rapid downward plunge, grabbed onto the far slower moving Rithrynn’s foot. The ensuing jerk could easily have dislocated the elfs ankle if not for the protection of her stiff leather boots, and caused the group to start descending at a much more rapid rate, the sentinel swinging from Rithrynn like a pendulum. 

“This – is not – the intended use – for this – spell ” Liam muttered shakily, beads of sweat visible on his forhead as he sustained the spell. Liaena shot him a glance, before stretching down to grab the sentinel hanging off Rithrynn, as that elf began floating also. 

“He’s saying you’re too fat, Rithrynn”

“I’m not!” Liam protested nervously, glancing at Rithrynn as if she was about to gut him on the spot for the implied insult. As he looked around, the tattered end of the severed elevator cable caught his eye as they drifted past it “…oh dear”

“Look out below, monkies!”

“Haaaaai-yah, Rithrynn!”

With wild war cries, the two sentinels that had been slithering with lithe dexterity down the cable reached the end of it to launch themselves at the floating mess of bodies drifting down the shaft. Liam yelped in pain, as a set of steel-clad boobs rammed themselves into his face, and Liaena bit out a curse as one of the elves ended up sitting on her head. The group were now once again moving far more rapidly under the increased weight “Move your ass!”

“Oh, that’ll be the others coming” Kathlin observed quietly, more to herself than Alissah as she peered up the shaft they were descending. The battle cries of the Night Elves was unmistakable, along with the occasional yell she attributed to Liaena. The noises were also becoming rapidly…louder. 

Glancing down, the end of the shaft was not so far away now, and becoming closer slowly but surely. Another look up again decided the matter for her as she tightened her grip on Alissah. “Bit of a bump coming up, mmkay?”

“What?”

Cancelling the levitation spell, Kathlin fell no more than about three metres as she landed with quite a hard bump on the stone floor at the bottom. The dwarf, who had been peering up the dark shaft with some bemusement at the shrieks from above, did a double take to point his blunderbuss at the pair as the girl rapidly backed away into the corner of the shaft. “Ey! Stand still, or –“

-CRASH-

Moving slightly slower, but a much greater load of Night Elf and human crashed into the floor in the middle of the shaft, blocking Kathlin and Alissah into one corner…and attracting the attention of just about every soldier inside the harbour. 

[i]“So much for elven grace and agility…”[/i]

Liaena winced, refraining from any number of foul comments as she tried to ease her way out of the situation she had fallen into, which was as it happens under a Night Elfs butt. “Rithrynn….just go and do what you do best, would you?”
