EDA RAMMED HEADFIRST INTO the wall of the cave, screaming as she broke the wall. She somersaulted into a kneeling position, grinning wickedly as King walked in behind her.
"Did I do it? Did I go into Harpy mode?" Eda eagerly questioned.
"No, you just screamed 'Hoot,' and ran headfirst into a wall of ice." King continued walking past, and Eda frowned. "Pretty funny actually."
Eda began following King as Amity walked in with Hunter, her guard up. "You can put down your staff. I won't run." Hunter said calmly, looking over his shoulder at the purple-haired witch.
"Too bad, because I don't trust you." Amity scowled. The two stood up straight, curiously gazing at the two ahead of them.
Eda kicked a broken piece of wood. "Huh, this stuff is old." She commented as King eyed a large gun.
"Ancient witches used to mine them for Titan Blood—" Hunter began explaining, but Amity cut him off.
"They're not paying attention." She deadpanned, and the two returned their gazes to the people ahead.
King scampered onto a gun and Eda squatted, grinning. "Go on, fire it. Maybe the adrenaline will kick in and — bam! Harpy Eda!" Eda instructed, and King nodded.
"Sounds perfectly safe," King replied. He aimed the drill/gun up a bit higher, squinting as he aimed. The drill began glowing a bright green, and Hunter's eyes widened.
"Wait, don't—!"
The gun fired, barely missing Eda's side and beginning to bounce off the walls of the cave. It headed for Amity, and she quickly summoned her abomination goo, catching the beam before it could hit her while maintaining a neutral expression.
Hunter leaned forward, glaring at the two who allowed the beam to be shot as Amity put the goo away. "This isn't a normal cave! These walls are made from the veins of the titan." He scolded, explaining why they shouldn't do that. "Any magic you shoot will bounce right back at you."
Eda placed her hands on her hips, smirking teasingly. "Oh, you must be fun at parties." She remarked, turning back to King. "Hey, King. How about you use your new powers to echolocate the lake." Eda suggested, smiling widely.
King laughed and hopped off the gun. "Okay!"
He walked to the tunnel leading further in, stopped, inhaled, and let out a cry that sent sound waves down the cave. Everyone watched, anticipating some results but King simply turned and shrugged.
