She wanted to use a quick estimate of whether or not she could have survived, but there just wasn't enough variables - or rather, she couldn't figure out what they needed to be and just didn't know them. Instead though, she remembered that shafts like these rather than going straight down may in fact have angled slightly, since they were used for building. Her eye sight became hazy all of the sudden and she blinked rapidly, terrified for a brief moment that it was perhaps an oncoming illness, but she dismissed that. She felt fine otherwise. It might have just been caused by the torches and low lighting, somehow? [color=00ccff]"If Belladonna survived the fall, our best chance of retrieving her would be to push onwards. These shafts are usually designed to finish off at an angle - so perhaps deeper down, we can find her,"[/color] Nora explained gently. Gene was getting thoroughly annoyed with the Lord Major - and Mahendra as well. Oh, there were things she could tell them that would make their heads spin and she was so tempted to do so, but she knew better. One upping these men wouldn't do anything good in the long run - though their reactions, she imagined, would be priceless. [color=#9370DB]"Of course when the [i]man[/i] says it, he listens,"[/color] Gene grumbled, rolling her eyes slightly. She probably would have continued on with more snarky comments when there was a sudden haze in front of her eyes and she frowned slightly. [color=#9370DB]"That's new..."[/color] she whispered quietly to herself. Of course, her distraction wasn't long lasting. Her annoyance with the Lord Major was growing. She was half tempted to go and shove him down the hole, insist on him following his earlier course of action to find Belladonna. He had been funny at first but now he was just getting irritating. [color=#9370DB]"It's not [i]inconvenience[/i] - your idea to remain behind here was just stupid,"[/color] she told him simply. [color=#9370DB]"And now, we've wasted time. Time that Belladonna might not have, if she is stuck at the bottom of the shaft. So now I would like to make a [i]suggestion[/i]! Hurry up, stop dawdling and being all British, and seriously, learn to use shorter sentences!"[/color] Gene snapped. Nora was staying out of Gene's little spat with the Lord Major. She recalled that Mahendra had asked her if she would like him to copy over the map as well and she glanced up from her own work. [color=00ccff]"If you would like, you may but it is no trouble - I'm nearly finished,"[/color] she told him. The haze was still in her eyes and she gave a nod to Lauren. [color=00ccff]"I'm experiencing it as well,"[/color] she said. [hider=Roll Request - Nora]Character current location: Athribis, Underground Characters attempted actions: Nora is going to try to determine where they should head according to the map to find Belladonna, if she's alive Any and all skills being used: Pattern Analysis, Cryptography, Mathematics, Decipher hieroglyphics, Acute Observation Why each skill is being called: Pattern Analysis/Cryptography - for finding patterns to help to deduce meaning. Decipher hieroglyphics - for figuring out what these symbols mean. Mathematics - in order to calculate/estimate. Acute Observation - basically perception. Desired location of the character: Athribis, Underground[/hider]
