The two of them stared at the floor. The stones kept moving to reveal a hidden staircase under the stone floor.
---------------------------------------
"A hidden staircase?" Sophie gasped.
"How in the world is there a hidden staircase in a Neverseen prison?" Ruy wondered, "And why did I never know about it?"
"Maybe they didn't trust you enough," Sophie suggested.
"Nope, that can't be true!" Ruy replied, "But why would there be a hidden staircase in a prison? The Neverseen are smart, they wouldn't do that!"
"The Neverseen probably don't know about the staircase," Sophie said, thoughtfully. "We should speak quieter if there are guards listening."
"Ok, let's go check it out!" Ruy exclaimed.
"Nope, not let's go check it out. I will go check it out!" Sophie argued.
"I am for sure coming with you." Ruy protested. "Who knows what's down there?"
"Nope!" Sophie told him.
"But-" Ruy started.
But Sophie interrupted him, "Just look at yourself!"
Sophie glanced at Ruy's legs.
"What?" Ruy asked, trying to act surprised.
"You know what," Sophie told him, glaring.
"I don't care! It doesn't hurt!" Ruy lied.
"You are such a bad lier!" Sophie glared at him, "STAY HERE!"
Her final command worked. Ruy didn't protest after that.
"Good! I will be back in 10 minutes. If I am not back then you have my permission to come down here yourself!" Sophie told him.
Sophie left before Ruy could say a word.
Sophie walked down the staircase. It was narrow and dark. She stumbled and fell many times. (Keefe isn't here to catch her, I'm sad)
She walked and walked, and down and down went the staircase. Sophie fell again, for the 28th time.
"Here catch this." Ruy said from the top of the staircase, throwing down a small pocket flashlight.
"Thanks, Ruy!" Sophie called up to him, watching the flashlight.
Even with the flashlight, Sophie fell three more times.
Time Skip - 10 Minutes
Sophie reached the bottom of the staircase. There was a huge dusty old room filled with bookshelves. There were many books but they were torn and scattered.
Suddenly the lights turned on by themselves.Sophie screamed and dropped the flashlight.
"Okay, now I am definitely coming down. Don't stop me from doing so!" Ruy called, his voice was very faint now that Sophie reached the bottom.
Sophie didn't stop him now but she did want him, "The space is very tight and cramped. Plus it's a very long and tiring walk until here."
"Well, I'm still coming down!" Ruy told her.
Sophie sighed as she picked up the flashlight and put it in her pocket. She knew this was going to be very important, so she didn't stop Ruy. But she was worried. His leg was in horrible condition. It would be so hard to come down. He needed to go to Elwin right after this. That is, if they manage to get out of the prison somehow.
