Leaving the Fortress

Pon coughed painfully while blinking dust from his eyes. "Sem?"

"Here." Semmi's voice sounded from nearby. "I'm okay. Fajii is freeing us."

The old mage squinted in the darkness; he could see the dim glow surrounding the Scorched Earth mage. "Should I melt my way out?"

/Alpha: Wind: Please don't. This place has been shifting and collapsing constantly.

/Alpha: Semmi: Fajii is strengthening the area around us. How long, Fajii?

/Alpha: Fajii: Half an hour.

/Alpha: Pon: How are any of us still alive?

/Alpha: Semmi: If I were to guess, I'd say the Bone hardening we were awarded. Alfie said it would make even you stouter.

/Inferno: Fey: Alpha team?

/Inferno: Semmi: We're trapped, but Fajii will free us.

/Inferno: Fey: We'll continue rescue operations then. Let me know if you require help.

/Alpha: Pon: Fey is running things?

/Alpha: Wind: Guess so. Just about everyone else is down.

/Inferno: Nix: We're back!

/Inferno: Pon: Punk Bastard! Did you get him?
