Ah.

As she caught her breath, the catgirl felt a certain mixed sense of emotion flutter through her. One one hand this thing was, on a less time-sensitive look at it, ugly as all hell. And yet it evoked a certain sense of pity as well, as if in some capacity she wondered if it was some kind of unfortunate soul from some point in this place's history. She really had no way of knowing, but one other thing was for sure at the moment: She was trapped in this tower and the monst-...Guardian. Yes. The Guardian was still out there, probably. As would be the other two dolts of their 'group', which is what she considered it for the moments it had lasted at least, and Donovan somewhere on the opposite side for all she knew. It was a mess, plain and simple, and yet something seemed to prod at her mind a she looked about herself at the foot of this tower. 

Well...first rule of survival and RPG's might still apply here: Search about and make use of what you can. Well, within reason in this case. 

Maybe there was a switch for this Guardian to be turned off with, or hell even some kind of warden's key that could let her sneak around some to get to that gate if it was still intact at this point. Or something. Either way, she would withdraw her spear from the gross monstrosity and hold it again by her side for now. 

For a short time, Leannah would then walk over to the ruined tapestries and try to see if she could glean anything from them. Hell, she'd even look to see if anything was behind them. It was a silly notion, and yet the worst thing she could do right now would be to panic. Well, panic more at least. 

She would then cautiously take a look back at the staircase leading up, clutching her spear and taking a deep breath before continuing on upwards. She would be on high alert for this place already, given what had met her immediately upon entering, but all the same she was doing her best to control her breathing and keep a sharp mind about her.
