The figure grunts, momentarily distracted by Ulten, whose ribs feel almost whole again.
’Information.’ Ketsuki sees the chance and takes it, releasing the axe to bite her thumb. (17v??) She smears the blood onto his breastplate in the shape of a rune, and the figure jerks suddenly, its legs and arms snapping to its side. It topples almost comically, like a falling tree, and hits the floor with a crunch. A snapping sound follows, and the ice wall on the far side of the ring breaks off. The floor inside the ring begins to tilt noticeably, and a gap forms between the floor and the near side of the ice wall. A sudden brightness enters the room as the roof tears, the moon shining through the gap. The sides of the ice wall also shatter as they pull away, and the floor beyond starts to slide upwards - more likely, the floor inside slips downwards. It is all those inside can do to keep their footing as it stirs into motion.
Outside, Yozod looses his chain at the Mira, (12+3v??) catching her arm and spinning her back into the ice wall, blades still sheathed. The other three advance towards the ogre, but all freeze as the roof tears open and the downslope portion of the room begins to slide away. The ice wall sags behind the Mira, and looks in danger of collapsing and following the rest. The Mira herself looks stricken, and mumbles
’Gunnar’ under her breath.
To clarify, everyone but Yozod are on the sliding section. It’d be a good idea to not be there much longer.
