The magnitude of what they had just faced had yet to sink in, and it took a moment for Yerbol's insinuations to break through her euphoria. Aria shuddered uncomfortably as she realised he had a very good point, if anything they had encountered so far on this planet made its way into the known galaxy....well, the Jedi would never be able to stop the Sith from taking over. She pushed the thought to the back of her mind, she could process that later, for now they had to complete the last part of this task so they could get the hell off this nasty rock. 

'Ascend', the pillar at the bottom had said. Of course, this was vague and incredibly helpful, not. While Yerbol looked upwards and threw his saber as if trying to find the ceiling of this chamber, Aria peered downwards to see if she could locate the pillar they had read the instructions from. But at this height, all she could see was a yawning blackness below them. She had to stumble backwards into the middle of the platform to combat the wave of dizzying nausea that followed after looking down such a steep drop. 
"Well..." she cleared her throat, "There's no going back down that way unless you want to risk breaking our necks." the acolyte swallowed, turning to face Yerbol again. 

"[i]Maybe we can leap upwards, and see what happens[/i]?" Yerbol suggested, and for a moment her jaw nearly hit the floor because she thought he was being serious, until he laughed too and made some kind of snide remark about being smacked in the ribs with another platform.
Aria trailed behind her companion as he moved forward again, peeking warily over his shoulder as if she expected some other horrific creature to jump out at them from around the next corner.
"Warm?" she repeated, frowning as Yerbol looked back at her over his shoulder. "You've got to be kidding, how is it...?" 
If she hadn't been able to see the vapor forming in clouds in front of them, evidence of each breath they took, she wouldn't have believed it. 

"I wouldn't [i]kark[/i] with the way they want us to do this, if I were you!" the Sith acolyte blurted out all-too-quickly, before he could even finish suggesting that they just break the wall down to progress further, staring at the young Knight with wide eyes. Her gaze shifted downward towards his feet, and she cleared her throat in embarrassment, trying to shrug off the outburst as if it hadn't been all that important.  
"Trust me, you...you don't wanna do this the wrong way." Aria repeated, a little firmer in her tone. "It could kill us. And I dunno about you, but I don't want to die out here." she snorted, reaching out to run her hand along the wall herself, searching for some kind of groove or carving that could point them in the right direction. "There must be a platform or a staircase hidden in this damn rock somewhere. Maybe we have to pull it out again, like the other one." she grumbled eventually. Force, she didn't want to have to risk jumping all the way up there, it was a LONG way down.
 
"Hell, I'd even be willing to risk pulling up a platform or staircase from further down between the two of us and bringing it up here to give us a boost up before I'd entertain the thought of a blind jump several feet into the air from here!" Aria snorted. Neither option before them was a simple one, whatever they decided, it would be tricky to pull off...
