Chapter 276
The two purple, grape-colored portals sandwiched him, and before he could take a breath, Max found himself standing on a four-by-four-foot platform.
His eyes focused almost immediately, and glancing around, he saw a pool of lava that stretched for over a hundred yards in every direction. He was in some dome, carved out inside a mountainside from the way the rocks looked, and off to his left was a small ledge with a single door.
“Let’s see what you can do!”
The voice of his captor echoed through the area, and Max didn’t see the man anywhere.
Thoughts?
Silence was his answer, and for a moment a fear of being alone came over him.
We’re ten feet above the lava. The ceiling is fifty yards above us at its highest peak. Based on the distance to the door and the amount of space we have around us, we can make it, but we’ll have to reveal one of our spells. Two would be easier, but for now I think we need to continue to hide what we can do.
Use your stone wall. Summon it on the platform, pick it up, and toss it about one third of the way when I tell you to. While you do that, summon a boulder, aim it for the other third, and time your running.
