[QUOTE="nonamazing, post: 3342070, member: 12118"] 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. [CENTER][B]* * *[/B][/CENTER] "[COLOR=DarkRed]I can do you one better than that, Tyren,[/COLOR]" Jodan says with a grin.
