Gan Vahnsen
Gan was not one to give up; despite the darkness, the Sage's words came back to him; Will was the key and answer to this. After all, what choice did he have left? Give in? Or keep fighting. So he fought. He focused his mind as far as he was able, driving back thoughts of fear and choking; calming and stilling himself. He closed his eyes and thought of pushing back the constricting cave with his thought alone. If these were the Cliffs, he wanted answers - to discover more of himself. As pathetic as he felt, he was no coward; if he was to die, it would be fighting with every last breath. And so he commanded the cave to retract.
