The room was still covered in darkness and the visible gas in the air made the situation they had found themselves in terrifying enough without that sinister voice echoing within. The mysterious Nebula leader had apparently expected them to be utterly broken mentally and had been impressed with their ability to hold themselves together. This monster had seen it fit to give them a fighting chance and had opened some sort of exit for them but Revan knew that their opponent had no honour and was seemingly only doing this for some form of twisted entertainment.
Revan lunged forward as he realised that they had been led into another trap, more needles shot out stabbing into his body in the weaker parts where his steel armour failed to protect him. It hadn't helped that he was already feeling severely weakened and worn out from this entire ordeal but he quickly noticed that the sharp pain was nothing compared to the poison that began flowing through his veins.
Revan had grown tired of the cheap tricks that he had been subjected to since entering the room and after crushing most of the means of injection he held one last needle in his hand and studied it closely realising some of the poison was still inside.
"Best I keep some just in case." He said putting it into his sheathe for safe holding.
The groups next challenge was revealed to be old chains that led down into a deep dark hole, he wondered if it was meant to symbolise some sort of entry into the underworld.
He truly hated being forced to accept that this was the only way to find and slay Nebula once and for all but sure enough here they were about to climb down into what could very well lead to their deaths or perhaps something worse.
"Celestia are you able to climb down chains?" He asked unsure if the hooves of a magical pony would work.
"If not I guess we could try carrying you down." Revan didn't like the look of the chains that seemed they could break from their combined weights.
"Either way I volunteer to go down first, I think we're all aware there is no turning back now." Revan moved up to the opening and examined the chains and the abyss below.
Reaching out his arm and gripping the large dangling chain he could tell how cold it was having probably never seen sunlight and after giving it a few sharp yanks determined that it was acceptable to attempt climbing down.
Pulling it in and gripping it with both arms he prepared to wrap his legs around it and begin the descent. There was no way of knowing what they would find at the bottom but the Omniverse was counting on them getting through this whether they survived or not.
"Here I go I guess." He said allowing the chain to swing his body out into the room as he got his legs around it.
"Seems to be holding for now." Revan inhaled nervously as he began his descent into the pitch black darkness below.
