Johan's POV
The climb took more or less one hour until they finally reached a point where they could let go of the ropes and catch their breaths.
Isaac and warden Ridge didn't seem to be fatigued at all, though, being full fledged Sabaid-in.
However, they both shook their hands and sat down for a few moments.
Hat was enough for Johan to know that they were only humans, fated to fail, get tired, and hurt.
Just as Erick was.
Coming to think of it, how was Erick at this point?
Was he enjoying the life as a free man, while Johan was down there, sweating his blood out to survive and keep true to his word?
'He's probably having some fun right now... Yeah, it's very much like him to be doing exactly that...' Johan chuckled, recalling the only time when Erick had spoke to him after he had been locked down.
"Did you get enough rest?" Warden Ridge whispered.
