The chain around his ankle was an annoyance, but expected. He noticed the other boy in the room with him. "Hello!" Nerites called to him, flaring his gills.

She was overwhelmed at all the reactions. "Yeah. The royalty didn't want to harm any of their own, so they send a spendable citizen. I mean, if I fail they can just send more and more until someone completes it. However, heirs to the throne are limited. There's only so many of them."

"w..." Amber thought for a few moments, shocked by the revelation. "N...no, they can't though! The first trial is in pairs, and no one knows if we die here! and Heirs are- were- supposed to be sent because we represent our kingdoms and we're supposed to protect our people" Amber spoke in a somewhat monotone voice, repeating what she had been told by her parents.

"Can't a citizen do the same? Sure, it might be more regal for an heir to come, but had any of you noticed before I said anything that I wasn't rich? My father was highly respected by our royal family. However, he died in an explosion." She hesitated before continuing. "There wasn't even anything to bury afterward. I proved myself to the royal family by taking care of my family, as my mother became despondent for at least a month. I had a little brother and sister, and they were going hungry. I had to do whatever I could to help them survive. So, whether out of pity or a tiny bit of respect that passed from my father to me...well, here I am."

" Well you shoudn't be here." He answer flatly, not happy at all about what he was hearing, those rules were sacred yet the scorpios just throw it away like it was nothing. " Let's hope that your kind didn't condamned us all to death or somthing, just because you decided to show up."

She had heard that it may have been difficult for certain signs to be togedther due to their personality and traits but it was starting to get progressively worst.

Tobias lifted his head, rubbing it slightly. Once he caught sight of the other person, his eyes brightened. `` Hello! `` he said, shaking is head a bit. He then looked around, eyebrows furrowed. He looked at the pit, seeing the key.
`` Do you know what's going on? `` he asked, his voice a bit loud. He tugged at the chain, a small growl escaping his lips.

" Oh, it's nothing realy, just that we are still missing some peoples to keep going and somes signs dont seem to do too well togedther." She reply with a shrug.

Nerites shrugged. "First challenge, I guess." He crept closer to the edge of the pit and looked down into it, trying to judge its depth. "I'm going to go out on a limb here and say we have to figure out how to escape. It looks like there's a key in here. Do you have anything near you?"
