 Desperately you hang on to the stone wall as the effects of the detonation erupt around you. Buffeted by heat and noise you hold firm to the stone and watch as a roiling plume of fire and smoking ash rises into the pit above. With the fire raging at all sides you begin to climb, using the worn mortared cracks between the massive stones as vantages upon which to haul yourself upwards.
In the light of the conflagration you begin your ascent. Looking up you can see two possible exits from the pit. One is the doorway that you fell from; the other a ventilation shaft some distance higher. The doorway is no use for it is closed and has no visible way of being opened from this side. The ventilation shaft is different. Relatively wide, it is open and should provide some way out of the pit. It is not much of an option but it is all your have. With a way out in sight you climb all the faster.
