[color=magenta][i]"That must be one of the other people we detected... I'll have Kazuki come pick him up"[/i][/color], she said. The stairs were immediately next to them, but Rui opt to wait a minute until Kazuki had arrived, he arrived with Riku as well, and the two quickly just grabbed the guy and headed back. Not many words were exchanged, just a few pleasantries. [color=slategray]"Right, we're going to keep going. Let us know if you detect anymore of those knights"[/color], he said... The knights didn't seem thematically part of the dungeon, which struck him as a little strange, perhaps testament to the fact that these people's egos were overpowered by whoever the dungeon's owner was. Regardless he moved along. As they reached the second floor they entered what appeared to be a bath house, at least not before a small corridor full of rooms, they seemed to be like an Inn's accommodation rooms, and then there was the hot spring. The bath house led outside too from what they saw, but they were a bit cautious to keep going. The main area for this floor looked like the outdoor hot spring, many times more spacious than this little changing room they were in. As they entered the outdoor area, they could see passive shadows taking a dip, much like in the first floor, but these ones were noticeably more... Aggressive. If anyone here had met Jun before, they would be reminded of her advances towards other women. It didn't help there was a slight pink tinge to some of the lighting, suggesting a bunch of things. [color=slategray]"I honestly feel like I shouldn't be looking at any of these..."[/color], he commented. The implications were enough to tell him this.

The Garula proved effective, it didn't seem to have any resistance to it, but after a few exchanges, it's weakness to fire was abused and then it was quickly taken down. As the knight fell to its knees, its armor crackled and broke apart, revealing a man beneath it, eyes white until he was completely free, and now unconscious. [i][color=yellow]"This is... One of the people who got wound up in this... I'll move some people in to pick him up"[/color][/i] Among the people who did was Matthew, Shizuka was a bit uncomfortable with the cavern, so she asked if she could take a small break, so Matthew agreed and the two switched duties for the moment. As this was going on, Kami with Ryan scouted ahead and found the stairs, so they headed back to inform the party. [color=aba000]"We've found the stairs... Ayano, we're going to keep moving up"[/color], and with that, they headed off. As they went up and arrived to the next floor, it looked as if this area was like some kind of secret passage for the inn. They could see many parts of what seemed to be a building's foundation. One could imagine this could be a kind of secret escape route. The area they were in was just a long winding and somewhat narrow cave hallway... If they were attacked here, it could be trouble, so the idea for this was to keep their magic users in the middle, so that if something attacked, they would already be in formation. [color=aba000]"Sooner we get out of this hallway the better..."[/color], he grumbled.
