I'll admit it had been years since I'd tried to simply burn a door off its locks, but I had no freaking clue that construction methods had made this almost freaking impossible! Ordinarily I would hit the hinges, but they were on the other side of this gods damned metal monstrosity. I could have tried to blast through the stone, but by the time I'd thought about that I was pretty used up power wise and burgeoning on corruption (you ever tried to lift something that was in theory small, and should have been liftable, but then turns out its actually quite heavy and your attempt to lift it you almost hurt yourself? it was like that). Frustrated at the super heated door in front of me I slumped down defeated.
"Did you even try the handle?"
"No they locked it, or I'm sure they locked it, or with all the fire I used on it its pretty well and sealed now." He frowned at me.
"So in your impatience you trapped us in here when I believe you have told me in the past you actually know how to pick a lock fairly well."
"I killed a man for you Val and this is how you treat me?"
"Like a petulant child who got us trapped in a room? Yes." I grumbled some more about him being a stupid jerk. I also didn't check the body of Phil to see if he had a key to the door, he didn't, but you know I didn't look.
"Yes I trapped us in this room, at least for a day or so when I recover more magically and can..."
"Oh for gods sake." He slumped down now and I felt sort of bad, but not really because look this was Val's fault anyway... Don't think that through just accept the logic and move on!
