Stan had just leap back from the descending arm when Kera's tongue caught his arm.  His lack of trust made him tense up a little.  This was a mistake.  The ride for him was none-too-pleasant either, getting dragged off by the shoulder while he was less-than-relaxed, but he tried to keep up as he entered the portal.<br/><br/>When Kera removed her tongue, Stan mentally relaxed a little.  "Thanks," he told her.  He tried to put his arm down, but the forces applied while his muscles were tight left it stuck in its current position.  Thus, he slowly tried to stretch them out, rubbing at his shoulder with his fingers.  He quickly started scanning the area as he did so, trying to find any way that this challenge might not be as empty as it seemed.  Finally, he noticed the trial tablet.  "Any idea what that says?" he asked.
