Shai shuffled around over the edge of the tower, prepared to scale down with her eyes closed, when the newly appeared ridge of a door arch appeared at the base. Much more quickly than she had come to the roof, she descended. She angled herself around the tower to try and block the worst of the raging winds. Her efforts proved effectively futile when she reached the base, she couldn’t willing retract her cilia. Her flesh had pimpled against the cold and her cilia remained extended. Like a cat with bags on her feet, she had to slowly lifted her body off the tower’s face before dropping to the cold ground.
Before even inspecting the door, Shai’s first order of business was to pull on her mittens and boots. Although the boots and mittens were cold from not being worn, she tried not to shiver. Another chilled ripple up her spine might force her to stick to another surface.
Regarding the wooden portal, Shai took several chimes just to make sure she missed nothing. The symbol meant nothing to her, a sun and a triangle. Briefly she considered that perhaps a door handle would appear when the sun rose, but it would be several bells before that. Shai was patient but not for no reason. No handle, no key hole… Shai was no stranger to being unwelcome in a building, but it was odd not to have an obvious way in.
Mentally she shrugged, and applied force and boot to the door. Trying to kick it in with the sole of her foot.
