Waln ascends even higher, elegantly walking across web bridges that zig zag high up into the upper levels. Yun jerks with every bump, fearing falling to her death the higher they go. Her knuckles start turning white from squeezing on to the thin silver thread so tightly. Waln looks down at Dante. “So what business do you two have in the upper levels?” Dante scrutinizes every nook and cranny he can spot, looking for signs of Kalina and her ice crystals. He doesnt break his attention from his search, but still answers. “Were looking for Roushscythe. You wouldnt happen to know which level he had made his own?” Waln tenses up slightly at the name. “The winter storm serpent? Do you have a death wish?” Dante smiles. “Me and death go way back. Ill be fine.” Waln tilts his head towards Yun who is constantly jerking back and forth as massive winged creatures. They range in size to that of school buses to semi trucks. Gliding through the sky carelessly like swift dolphins or dipping sharply and hurling their massive forms laboriously through the air. “What about that one? She on your friends list with death? I can feel her trembling through my threads, she wont last long with the Hiemalis.” Yun swings her head up to glare at Waln, forcing her discontent through the black pits in her mask. “I can take care of myself thank you!” She states with a hint of distain at his antagonizing observation. Even though she did feel doubtful of her own abilities against beings who obviously had more experience with things outside of the rules of normality, where she was still coming into her own powers. If she were to falter in her focus, it could mean her death. Waln curls his pronged fangs up into a smile. “My my, well excuse me. I was wrong about you oh mighty trembling one. Im sure you will do just fine with the black winged serpent that is the very essence of snow storms.” He states in a amused sarcastic manner. She scoffs in annoyance. “Whatever.” Waln climbs through one more level before stopping a few feet above a ledge. “Then I hope you two the best.This is as far as I will go, the fully consumed above here dont much like bottom crawlers like myself.” Dante slides himself out of the web seat with Yun following suit. He tosses Waln the two gold coins, which Waln catches eagerly. “If you get lost just follow the-” Dante interjects. “The ice...” Waln nods his head, agreeing as he strokes his smooth silver chin. “Dont go pissing it off will ya? We just cleared out most of the flooding in the lower levels and this gloom outside is a cheery up beat in comparison to the ice storms that accompanied the beast.” Dante flashes a toothy grin. “I guarantee nothing.” The images of doing just the opposite of what Waln requested run through his mind. He knows the business at hand with the beast will cause nothing but trouble, pissing it off will be inevitable. Waln shakes his head slightly, knowing their fair weather is about to come to an end. “Well it was a nice reprieve from the cold while it lasted. Till next time Dante, friend of death.” He tilts his eight eyes to Yun with another spidery grin. “And his masked trembling one. If there is a next time.”
