Renfry was surprised when he practically punted the door down, a combination of his physical strength and the Force making quick work of it. She jumped slightly at the sudden and unexpected noise, but released her grip on her lightsaber to let it flop back against her hip. She looked over at him and gave him a face that said "well that works too."
The next thing that accosted her was the smell. It was the smell of death and rot, and she couldn't quite stop the Ugh that escaped her lips as she did covered her nose.
He lit up the room and once again she didn't say anything about it, having previously noted his slight struggle. She was glad to see him continuing to practice, and she knew he wouldn't have given her a hard time either.
On the other hand, his "ladies first" comment would probably earn some sass. It simply had to. Just pretend I'm not a lady, she said. Maybe then you'd actually fall in love with me, she mentally grumbled but didn't say aloud. Besides, I don't think I really strike anyone as the "lady" type, she said.
Nevertheless, she took the first step into the room. Nothing sprung closed on her which was good, but there was something off in the room and it wasn't just the smell.
I wonder if I can summon him back, she said, knowing such summonings were far easier on worlds like Dathomir and the Twin Worlds, but thinking she might be able to pull it off anyway to get them some answers. She, of course, mentioned necromancy as casually as having bacon for breakfast.
She started poking around, continually glancing upwards like something was going to lunge down from the ceilings at them at any moment. She picked up a book out of the skeleton man's hands and looked at it.
I've barred the door, but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes. Drills, drills in the deep, she said. I cannot get out. A shadow moves in the dark. I cannot get out. They are coming, she said, noting how the writing scrawled off at the bottom of the page. She looked up at Emryc.
Well that's ominous, she said.
