Tolark concentrates with remarkable clarity, drawing easily upon the Force to pull Sylara and the wounded students carefully up the shaft. But as Sylara comes closer, Tolark suddenly feels his strength waning, and his control over the Force begins to weaken.
By the time Sylara is within eight meters of the hole, Tolark has completely lost his access to the Force. Luckily, Sylara's remarkable endurance allows him to keep climbing for a few more rungs, making it close enough to the top that Tolark is able to reach into the shaft and help him the rest of the way.
Sylara slumps to the floor, exhausted. Sol, still strapped to Sylara's back, looks unnaturally pale, his skin a strange shade of white-green. Zeth is completely unconcious, and his breathing seems shallow.
"I can do you one better than that, Tyren," Jodan says with a grin. "Thanks to Bri's link with the master controls, I can also check the medical scanners and see if anyone is hurt." Jodan taps a few controls. "There you go. I've also transmitted this to all of the other instructors."

The Deeprunner is away at full power. Magus sits at the main controls, grinning wildly, while Gimto frowns as he manages systems control at the co-pilot's chair. "I'm a little worried about our level of speed, Magus. There's a lot of turbulence, mostly due to the storm, I guess, and since those things don't seem to be following us, I don't see why..."
"Relax, 'captain'. I'm trying to get us clear of the storm, for your information." Despite Magus' confidence, the Deeprunner is vibrating constantly, and seems unsteady. "While we're in the middle of choppy waters, the sensors don't work as well as I'd like. We've gotta get clear so that if one of those things--or something worse-- comes after us, I'll be able to see 'em."
Gimto casts an uncertain glance at Aayla, who shivers as if cold. "I'll go check on the other students, Master Tyren," she says. "I want to make sure everyone is secured." Aayla heads back to the Deeprunner's cargo area.
"Hey, boss? All clear!" Wayne seems to be right. As Nor checks his screens, he sees that the water around the Academy filled less with squid creatures and more with gore and blood. The water is wild, whipped into a frenzy by the high winds of the storm, but no creatures appear to be actively making their way toward the Academy at the moment.
Atharias looks down into the blood-filled water, an expression of dismay on his face. "So much carnage..."

Nor takes a few moments to line up his shot. The bulky creature trashes closer and closer to the ship's platform, the water around it turning murkier and more disgusting as it continues to ooze blood. The entire landing area is illuminated as the War Pig fires, a lance of pure green energy that shreds the creature, ripping through flesh and bone in an instant."Hey, boss? All clear!" Wayne seems to be right. As Nor checks his screens, he sees that the water around the Academy filled less with squid creatures and more with gore and blood.
