Ting!
To the point, Levi heard the noise of the chain the instant it touched the metallic beam… A beat later, Levi crossed past the metallic beam as well.
Ssek-Varr on one side of the beam, Levi on the other.
The chain connected them both.
Cliiing!!!
Under the stunned eyes of everyone, the loose chains tightened the instant its exposed length slid through the beam fully.
Then, it snapped.
Argh!!
It didn't break, but it yanked Ssek-Varr and Levi back to the metallic beam, jolting Ssek-Varr awake, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Levi was already used to much worse; his tightened hands refused to let go of the staff… They slid a bit, but they kept biting hard, akin to steel pincers.
The moment he survived the initial jolt, he started swinging with his body facing the rim while Ssek-Varr swung backward… their acceleration wild.
