Hitting the ground, Aether groaned, putting a hand on his back as he got up on his feet. Looking up, he saw the old man looking at them with a wide smile on his face before closing the door.
Aether sighed, putting his hands on his hips. "Should have expected it when I heard him ask that question... damn it." He looked back at Elise, who looked slightly hurt just like him, but more uncomfortable than anything.
It was nowhere near tall enough to kill or hurt a Seeker... but for a Reader... it was a pretty hard fall, which was why Isak had not gotten up yet. Aether frowned, quickly running to him. His heart was beating, but he was bleeding, and worse of all, it looked like he had fallen on his head... which was horrible news.
'Shit... and we can't even access the Codex's shop to buy something to heal him... we have to get out... and then try to find help.'
He got up, turning back to Elise. "He's not dead, but he probably will be if we take too long. Any idea on getting out?"
