The Nymph's Kiss

I stared up at the small opening of the cage and I recalled I still had some light crystals with me. So, I brought a few out of [Dimensional Box] and laid them around me. 

With my prison illuminated, it was no longer as suffocating as before. It wasn't impossible to escape, I just knew it would be too much of a hassle right now. So, I settled in comfortably to wait it out, retrieving what looked like a dried apricot from one of the supply bags in my store to eat.

«What a model prisoner.» Sensei tutted disapprovingly. «Daring to eat, when you could be buried at any time.»

"Tension makes me hungry." I retorted. "Panicking doesn't solve anything either, so I'm saving my strength and energy."

«Show some awareness of your current predicament!» Sensei was completely fed up.

"I am well aware." I replied with an eye roll. "I won't let myself get buried if things don't go well."
