Even Mischief remained silent as they went deeper into the mine. It was an opressive feeling of being trapped in a small space with thousands of pounds of stones above their heads, only darkness creeping up to them and trying to swallow the faint light of their torches. As she heard Gerhart speak of the marks and trails there might be, she squinted her eyes.
"Claws? You mean to tell me you suspect some kind of monster was responsible for this?"
Kamille still felt a very light breeze as they walked, which was good. She had heard that if a tunnel had stagnant air, it was possible it was a dead end, while the breeze would indicate the tunnel led to outside. Truth be known, she wasn't paying much attention to where they were going. She wasn't the one good with directions.
As they arrived to the section with the blockage, she got closer to it and seemed to be analyzing it and the tunnel surrounding it. For a moment she remained silent, trying to listen if the miners were behind the wall. Kamille didn't understand much of mines and tunnels, but she feared messing with the structure surrounding it and causing it to collapse even further; at least the sides of the tunnel she would rather not mess.
"Let me try something first."
Kamille approached the wall, and closed her eyes. It was clear what she meant when she said she would bring the digging part: as she placed her hands on the ground, the earth itself shook and shifted on it's own accord, as if it was malleable sand, and not stone and earth [1]. Kamille chose to pull the earth down with her magic, as to let the stones on top accomodate and slide, releasing the tension of the piled up stones until a small hole opened up on top of the wall. From there, it would be easier to slide the rest of the stones to open a good hole for them to come through.
