HabmorÂ’Anto - the Prison
The other half of the group of prisoners return from the kitchens, and further conversation is all but impossible, as, with a great rattling of chains and groaning of gears, a steel platform descends from the roof of the cavern at the top of the central metal cage, eventually coming to a stop at your level.
The greybeard that Corrin acknowledged earlier joins you, nodding grimly to Ayas and introducing himself as Karl. At his urging, you wait with him as the lift makes two rattling trips down and back. When it is your turn, the platform is much less crowded, though there is still a certain amount of tension in the air and you are pleased to have someone else around you who seems somewhat trustworthy.
Corrin nods towards you as he and the select others (indeed many of those gathered around Midnight) are led off to the workshops above, as the platform descends deeper, the lady herself waggling her fingers at Yetta.
