Enduring the Unknown

There was more conversation between us as we were waiting for the staff to commence Level 3, but about things I largely ignored. All around me, the other disciples there chattered non stop. This continued even after the first few people entered the challenge. Every one of them looked shaken up afterward, and none of the first ten to go lasted even a single minute out of the possible 5 minutes. Still, most of the disciples still waiting to go dismissed how they felt—after all, they'd barely even made it this far.
