And in an instant, it seemed everything had gone wrong. The lyrium wasn't reacting the way lyrium should, and suddenly Lana had been stabbed and when she said something was wrong Elanna knew that it was serious. In her efforts to get away from the now moving lyrium she accidentally bumped the pillar.
Jumping back as soon as she'd made contact, and thankful the consequences hadn't been worse, she noticed that it looked an awful lot like a foot. And now that she was thinking about it, the other pillar was shaped an awful lot like one too...
And they were starting to tremble. Oh, fuck.
She looked back over to Anders and Lana when he addressed her and she ran over to put a hand on his shoulder to stop him from moving further toward the way they'd come. [color=#17b529]"Wait, we can't, look!"[/color] She pointed at the floor. It was completely covered with red lyrium for as far as she could see, blocking the way back. Unless someone could fly all the way back without touching the ground there was no safe way to navigate it that she could see.
Dirt and stone began to fall from above as the pillars - legs - continued to shake and start to move. Enough so that she could start to see a glimmer of light from above. She'd be tempted to start climbing the giant thing if there wasn't red lyrium coating it. Though the lyrium did seem to be reacting to magic most and she didn't have any...
[color=#17b529]"Anders, do you think you can help me get up there?"[/color] she said, pointing to the light far above them. [color=#17b529]"If I get high enough, I might be able to get out and drop a couple ropes for you, have Fred pull you out."[/color] Maybe she'd get lucky and there'd be a way to scale the wall, but if she had to try to climb the moving giant, well, so be it. She'd wrap her hands to avoid direct contact and hope for the best.
TLDR
-Stops Anders from trying to go back through the lyrium
-Notices that the pillars are legs and a hole is starting to form up where the head would be
-Asks Anders if he has some way of giving her a boost so she can start climbing out
