As she ran down the hallway the walls seemed to come alive. Those dancing flames got more vibrant, in fact they were actually vibrating in their grooves. Then suddenly two of them flew out of the walls at Rauko. These looked like thicker versions of that fire trap she'd been caught in earlier.<br/><br/>...<br/><br/>After she ascended the stair Rauko found herself in a ridiculously warm room. The fiery grooves were all around this one, they spiraled into the center where a pedestal sat. Hovering above the pedestal was a dark red gem with swirls of orange inside of it. Literal swirls, the bits of orange were moving around and becoming larger or smaller as time progressed. Though something was odd. The infiltrator could see something wrapping around the gem that matched all of the swirling. It was colorless and she could only see it because of the distortion in the air. She couldn't quite find a source though.<br/><br/>Lastly was the space above the gem, Rauko could see a hole in the ceiling that looked to be a chimney of sorts above it. She heard another roar and the sound of fire coming ever closer from the stairwell.
