[Jenny's at the well throwing a long rope down the hole, and securing it to the ground. She knows whoever goes down there is going to need a way up, and though she can't guarantee that nobody will cut the rope, it's worth a chance. As soon as she's got it ready, she'll be repelling down herself. Of course, she has no idea how far down the hole is, so she'll be reaching the end of her rope before she reaches the bottom. Thinking Quickly, she unhooks herself from the rope, and lets herself drop the rest of the way down into the tunnel, somehow managing to land on her feet before slipping and falling right on her ass with an echoing bang coming from her boots and knives.]
...Well, that was fun...
I don't think I've ever been so uncoordinated with my landings before.
[There's some shifting sounds as she gets up, and then the echo of her boots sounding off the floor. All this is followed by the sounds of a knife hitting a rock, and then the crackle of flames as she uses a flint to get a torch started.]
Wow, feels just like Messa. Except there's no guns or war.
[Everything said or done seems to echo strangely off the walls of the tunnel, including the sudden screeching sound of metal scraping against rock, followed by only silence.]
