Bab 1064: 1064. The Buried City

Su stepped back a few feet then charged at the dome. It was amazing how much tougher the darker stone was than expected. However, it had already lasted many years and the lighter stone that had been created over it was mostly gone. It took a total of five harp hits with the assistance of the earth spirit in the earth dwelling shield to crack open a large enough hole to drop a rope down. 

"I will drop a torch down first. I know I can use my light orb skill but I think using fire will be better since we can see if there is any shift in the air. Or if there is anything dangerous living in there, it could be afraid of the fire." Walker knew that some insect type monsters would fear fire in general so the chances of fending them off with just a torch were high.
