"Kai?" Mona poked my shoulder. "Hey, what's wrong?"

Laura nodded and motioned me to lead the way. I didn't waste any time as we began to circle the outer edge of the barrier. Despite desperately wanting to rush in there and take hold of the primal core, I knew it would be suicide. The smartest thing we could do was to learn as much as we can, then retreat to return with greater numbers later on.
