The Self-Proclaimed Not God

"Are you sure about this?" Atom asked me in my mind after we had stopped to get something to eat from the Crystal Flowers.

I was kind of hoping that we would find something other than the Nectar, but there wasn't really anything that I could eat down here. There were some mushrooms, but I didn't really like mushrooms before, so I couldn't really see myself liking them now.

"You know that I don't do things lightly, even if I don't always think them through before doing. I know that you and the others think that this is a bad idea, but whatever is on the other side of that barrier needs to be dealt with one way or another!" I sent back as Helaina floated along beside me. 

We were just coming up to the cave where I could sense Kiliada was waiting for us, or just waiting. While I was sure that he was probably just watching for other people trying to enter, I was sure that he was watching for us as we approached, and the squealing metal sections stopped spinning.
