Ilya hushed the Nord, his ear still glued to the wall. Did it look like he was resting? He closed his eyes and concentrated, continuing his tapping while gritting his teeth. It was hard enough to listen for the hollows with the hum of the machinery deep beneath them reverberating through the wall without someone blathering in his other ear about Falmer and whatever. Finally he tensed up, tapping a few extra times on a spot and cracking a smile.<br/><br/>"I'd say the chance is about as good as any to meet contraptions, Falmer and Charus. But as long as we can keep to the ruins and out of the caverns we only have to worry about one of them." He scraped with his claw around the spot and found the edges of the covered mechanism. With a heavy push with his thumb against the surface the stone cracked and the button was pushed in, part of the fall seemingly falling inwards and then to the side to reveal a pristine but dusty dwemer corridor. He stood up with a cocky smile and bowed to his audience while motioning towards the newly opened path. "If you are so eager to find out, how about you take the lead, Marven? Meanwhile I'll keep the ladies company."
