He got a weird feeling going down those stairs... he had no idea what it was. But his heart was beating as it had never before. Was he scared? No, he didn't think he was, after all... he definitely wasn't more scared than when he had to face the Queen in Frozen Crown, so then what was it? Why...
And with every step he took, it only got worse and worse... and looking down, there didn't seem to be an end. It reminded him of a hideout from Frozen Crown. Back then, he had to jump down; only then would the descent end.
Back then, he had been walking in the stomach of a monster, and he was wondering if this was the case. So he stopped, summoning Voidpiercer and thrusting the blade into the ground, breaking a small part of the stairs.
Grabbing the broken part, he dropped it into the hole. Then he waited and waited until he heard it. The stone piece hitting the ground.
'So... there is an end?' Aether sighed, continuing to walk down the stairs.
