Chapter 9: Light at the End of the Tunnel
The gang tries to find a way through the mysterious door within the tunnel, but it seems to be locked by some kind of ancient device. This shortcut may not turn out to be as short as they were hoping!
Tavi
I don’t hear anything but us in here…
Nyx
But, it’s so loud! None of you can hear that?
Juni
Yip!
Nyx
You really can Juni? You better not just be saying that to make me feel better!
Juni
Yip yip!
Juni
Yip yip yip!
Nyx
Okay, okay, I’m sorry! You’re right, I know you wouldn’t lie to me. Just started to scare myself for a moment there.
Juni
Yip yip!
Baelia
I still can’t hear a thing.
Tavi
Me neither.
Luxinia
Hmm, and I can’t seem to sense anything…
Tavi
Well, if Juni can hear it too, then maybe this has to do with their connection to the Void?
Juni
Yip yip!
Nyx
Juni thinks you might be on to something there.
Nyx
I can’t tell where this melody is coming from, but with that regular rhythm, it sounds like a march.
Tavi
I wouldn’t have taken you for the musical sort, Nyx.
Nyx
I’m not. Well, I used to play the dashboard of our delivery ship like drums, but mostly just to jam out with Juni. He can always hit the high notes.
Juni
Yip yip!
Nyx
This music we are hearing, it feels like I’ve heard it before… I can’t be sure, but I think this marching chant is urging me forward.
