Fragments of rocks falling from the hole, Jeonbae stared upwards in wonder at what the transformed Aster had made. He could hear voices coming through it, some sounding familiar. The lightning dragon climbed off of Winter's back and peered up through the hole cautiously. He coughed a few times from the dust in the ear. As he got closer, a familiar voice rang out from the opening.
''Winter! Grandpa Jeo! Aksaja! You guys there by any chance?!'' It sounded like Chu! Relief flooded into Jeonbae.
"Yes, we're down here!" he shouted with some difficulty. "I'll try to climb up." Grabbing the loose bricks as handholds, he slowly made his way up climbing through the hole, feeling a little weak. Once he reached the top, still holding on to the bricks, he was breathing heavily, and spots danced in front of his eyes.
[i]Nice, you used like half of your energy getting that collar off. Great job.[/i]
Nearly falling back to the basement, he let go of the bricks suddenly and fell on to the ground.
"We should... find a rope or something..." he mumbled, getting up shakily, using the wall for support. He looked up at the dragons in front of him, and nearly stumbled back down as he saw Aster. But... he didn't seem as feral and beastlike like he was before. Jeonbae felt a little more energized as he straightened himself up.
"Can you guys climb up?" he called down to Aksaja and Winter. He didn't want to go find a rope if they didn't need it.
