Perhaps it was the adrenalin coarsing through her veins or simply just sheer focus on the rapidly approaching hazards, but Lauren was starting to feel the pain from the blow the light arrow had dealt her. The large gash in the side of her abdomen was leaking blood into the rushing air around her, though for the moment she wouldn't be able to tend to her wound. Her grip on the windglider tightened as she maneuvered it around the spires and the debris, occasionally flinching at the pain ebbing from the sensation of the rushing air brushing up against the burnt skin around her wound. And from what she could see before her the others hadn't faired much better. Hell, she'd argue that she got off relatively lightly. As much as she wanted to help the others she could probably only handle one other person on the glider with her, and it seemed that for the moment the closest person to her was the lady who had created the lightshow to begin with. Between the pain and focusing on avoiding other bits of falling debris she hadn't noticed how the hell Aedri had gotten away unscathed, though with how badly injured everyone else seemed to be she was also her best bet at treating the others wounds. She straightened herself out a little to descend a little faster, gradually catching up to her before slowing down a tad to match her speed of descent.
"Hope you know how to heal wounds, because the others look to be in worse shape." Lauren tried speaking over the roar of the wind, shifting her grip on the handlebar of the glider to reach a hand out to Aedri. She didn't wait for an answer though as the fingers of her good hand took hold of hers, their current freefall not affording them time to worry about much else. "You'd better hold on tight."
Lauren focused primarily of keeping away from the spires and whatever oncoming debris was still falling down with them, though her eyes noticed a faint shimmer down ahead of them. From what she could see it seemed to be a barrier of sorts, one that both the debris around them and they themselves could pass through - albeit with some resistance. There wasn't much to be done to slow their descent with the incessant pull dragging them to the depths of the cavern, and as she came into contact with the barrier the feeling of her body creeping through it felt unnerving. Yet on the otherside of it, everything felt... Calming. The pull to their death seemingly vanished as their descent slowed to what felt like drifting through slow moving water, and the lights of the cavern itself aided in easing her into a more composed state. The blue shimmer of the windglider she had gradually faded away as the holographic surface itself broke apart and dissipated unevenly, leaving her hands free to try and stop the gash in her side from bleeding. She could feel her head start to throb from losing a fair bit of blood, though she managed to keep her wits about her while static started to arc off of her prosthetic. She lurched forward in the air as a rudden rush of pain accompanied the [Electrostatic Pulse] coarsing through her prosthetic hand, the prolonged electrical exposure on her wound cauderizing it as she gritted her teeth through the pain. She only stopped once she was absolutely sure the wound was fully cauderized, ragged breaths escaping her as the pain in her body refused to let her off the hook easily.
Whatever waited them at the bottom Lauren couldn't know, but for the moment at least their lives didn't seem to be in much more peril.
