Nothing could slow her down! Not only was she a physical force of nature that few could even hope to challenge, she had a brain that actually did something helpful for once! When the door opened, she held a hand on her hammer in case anything jumped out. But she found herself rather... disappointed. Another door. Not only that, another locked door. "[color=598527]...shit balls...[/color]" Kathryn grumbled seeing it. Stepping into the small hallway she was able to note that the hallway was in fact, dusty. There was not a ton to observe, but the dust was telling. It meant there was little to no traffic in a very, very long time. It was a backup study, so there was no telling how little it was actually used. But if this was the study that Lizbeth's grandfather did his arcane work in, she was surprised it had been so long. Sure, he had died months ago, but this seemed rather under used. Turning around, she noticed another thing, the secrete door she opened could be resealed with a lever from the inside. Made it easy to keep the room secrete even when working in it, and in a pinch it could make a last minute panic room. Something to keep in mind if things went wrong. Not that anyone here would choose to hide over fighting, but it may come down to it if things get particularly bad. As Kathryn moved around some more, other than throwing off her center of gravity some, she kept forgetting Kosara was attached to her person. Her armor hugged her tighter than Kosara did, and the tiefling woman's weight didn't really effect Kathryn's strength too much either. But the repeated cheers kept reminding Kathryn that there was in fact, a full grown woman hanging off her back. "[color=598527]Yeah I don't really know if we have what we need to get through the door without brute forcing it. But without knowing what is on the other side, that may be a bit risky. Plus I don't think Lizbeth and Cecily would like us destroying the building too much.[/color]" Kathryn did try for the crowbar again to see if that would fit into the lock, and it wasn't even fucking close. Then the key from the original study! Also, no dice. "[color=598527]Mother fucker.[/color]" Kathryn mumbled. She really should have picked up a trick or two when it came to locked doors. Kathryn then took a moment to step outside of the small hallway to make room for another potential expert. Maybe Victoria had a trick up her sleeve? Or maybe BB knew how to pick a lock? But he also only had one arm... That seemed hard without a second arm, but BB was one of the few people that could go toe to toe with Kathryn in a strait up brawl, so she hesitated underestimating him ever. But in the end, it was Daxos as the dwarf seemed to actually be able to pick a lock! Holy shite! Moving aside so he could work Kathryn found herself a bit deflated when his picking seemed to fail, but he seemed to have another solution. "[color=598527]I was hoping to get in without property destruction, but our options are beginning to run out. If need be I could probably brute force the door, but I worry about if something is waiting on the other side for us.[/color]" Kathryn said with some concern in her voice. "[color=598527]Plus, I want to keep the cleanup and repair work to a minimum once we are all done here. The less debris the better.[/color]"
