Tybalt merely shook his head at the older man's question about the pathways. No, they'd been too busy being chased by a boulder for that.
He fell into silence as they started walking, his heartrace having slowed after the fall and a little enthusiasm sparking up again in the torchlight. Only - besides the threat of imminent death that had been haunting them like a spectre since they'd set off - this was kind of exciting. And every adventure, it turned out, was made a little better by walking down a mysterious flickering torch-lit passageway.
It hadn't yet led to death, but instead to a strange cat statue. "Weird. Anyone know what that's about?" Tybalt asked, tossing a bemused face around at the rest of the group; but then, too curious to resist, crouched down to order to turn it upwards - and maybe, see if there was anything inside. Had it been knocked askew by another boulder, or another person, or...?
