Beren looked down the chasm with a curious look, comically with his hands on his hips. "You know if one did fall, at least they'd have plenty of time to try and catch some of the rocks to slow themselves down..." 

"Aye!" Geradin announced, surprisingly Beren who jerked a bit. If he wasn't a Monk, he might have lost control of his footing from the sudden jump and he might have fallen. Luckily, he had very good balance and concentration. "God damn." He muttered under his breath, turning around to see Geradin march past him toward the bridge. "I shall lead. It feels sturdy enough from my reckoning. And it's only a bow shot across, right Elf?" 

Calanon nodded, holding tightly to Brogach's reins to comfort the beast. Elk were not meant to travel underground. Elves neither, but Calanon was sure footed and steadfast, trusting in his friends and their comfort with the chasm. Geradin set off, with Alice and Argon choosing to take the rear. Beren nodded to them both, and then he helped usher the rest of the group forward over the precarious bridge toward their destination. 

At times, the group would feel a sudden draft, and though normally the wind would effect them not at all, over such a drop it was a threatening thing. As was the impenetrable dark around them, threatening to engulf their very beings were it not for the hammer and the mystic ball at their backs, courtesy of Alice. 

Within minutes of slow and steady travel, Geradin's light revealed a great tower of stone before them. It looked to be a natural rock formation, but if that was so, it was a very fortunate and coincidental one. For there was a roughly hewed opening at the bridges end, and within was a tunnel that led further still forward. Geradin and Beren were the first in, followed by Settionne and then Calanon and Brogach, followed by Ursaren, Argon, and Alice in the rear. 

Within the short tunnel, they would all feel and intense surge of heat assail them, and a soft glowing in the distance. Geradin snuffed his hammer out, and chewed on his beard as he strode forward into the giant abandoned forge, upon and island of stone in a lake of magma...
