Meanwhile, Cecilia...

"I should have gone with her..." Cecilia said to herself, holding the rope firmly. It was wrapped around one of the posts for the bridge, but she had felt the need to hold it, just in the off chance the post could give way.

While she had wanted to go, she knew it wouldn't be wise. Something could untie the rope, or it could give way, leading to a potentially lethal situation. The heavy armor she wore also wouldn't work well for a quick climb, it might take her hours to carefully traverse the distance, but it stilled weighed heavily on her conscious. "I hope the others are alright, maybe this whole thing wasn't such a good idea, we're not off to the best of starts."

She sighed, still holding the rope. So she sat, in the torchlight, waiting for her companions to come back up the rope.
