“I dunno. You’re the priest, don’t y’all have some sorta direct pipeline to the gods?” She shrugged. There was no heat in her voice, just genuine confusion. But she guessed he was right. Why did the gods do anything? She wasn’t really the type of gal to stop and think about this stuff, though - that was for philosophers and clerics and the like. She only paused a moment when Ray called back to her.
“Ya seriously think there’s stuff sleeping down here?” That’s still alive? Well, there was still that creature underwater that they met, so maybe other things lurking in the shadows wasn’t too much of a stretch. Ak’ka didn’t exactly like the thought of slowing down and being cautious, but Ray seemed to know what he was doing at least. He seemed pretty knowledgeable. She’d listen to his advice for now.
Ak’ka slowed, shoving her hands in her pockets as she tried to lighten her footfalls. The effect only changed her stomping to a regular volume. She followed where Ray was pointing, narrowing her eyes at the structure. “That’s a big-ass pyramid… thing…”
She trailed off as they continued to get closer to the big structure. She didn’t normally get scared easily, but even she was struck with the inherent… wrongness of this place. Damn. Whatever was putting Ray on edge, it was starting to get to her, too. Like something in the back of her mind whispering for her to turn back, there was nothing for her there. Even someone as dense as her could feel the tension in the air, as if the slightest misstep would make everything go wrong.
She grabbed the tree that was slung across her back just in case, holding it tight. If some motherfucker was about to get the jump on them, she wasn’t about to go down without a fight.
