While you're not sure why her boss sent her here specifically or what relics she was trading, that seems somewhat less important now with the information you have. Some mysteries are not meant to be known.
"YEAH THAT'S COOL WE GOTTA MOVE!" You shout a bit too loudly as you begin to focus your telekinetic might on the statue. Issue is that it's a giant hunk of stone and even though you threw a road roller before, that took nearly every last bit of strength you had.
Wendy immediately moves in to help with her own telekinesis. It's just barely not enough but Lex pushes it over the edge by shoving his back against the statue. That little nudge is enough for you and Wendy to push it back a solid twenty feet away from the center.
Fatima skitters back from this display of anomalous power with a tense, ready to go battle posture...but she calms down when she realizes why you pulled out the psychic bullshit.
Right underneath the statue is something that's bewildering to everyone here: A small staircase leading down. Everyone in your party scrambles to rush down the staircase now that you know you're REALLY on the clock with the WHITEROCK people.
You're the last one to head down the hidden underpass. You catch a glimpse of Fatima watching your group as if she wants to follow but for now, she stands there in complete bafflement of what she saw.
<<span class="mu-b">"Should I help them? They did help me...but am I obligated to? My head feels so fuzzy, I-"</span>>
You don't really have time to win her over. If she comes, she comes. If she doesn't, she doesn't. Not your obligation to convince her.
It doesn't take long for your group to reach the bottom since the staircase only leads about 15 feet down. That's because at the bottom of the hidden staircase is something you didn't quite expect to see.
An old rusty metal elevator cab that clearly leads deep, DEEP underground. This thing has been here for a while since it's probably more rust than steel at this point. It'll probably snap if you sneezed at it the wrong way.
Since there's actually a cab here without your group needing to call it up, whoever's down there hasn't come out. At least not through here. You would ask why there is such a thing here but you're just glad you don't have to go down more fucking stairs at this point.
"I DO NOT LIKE THE STRUCTUAL INTERGITY OF IT. I WOULD SURVIVE IF I CARVED A HOLE ON TOP IN TIME BUT I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THE REST OF YOU." Quentin tries his best to show worry to the ground but everyone else has already thrown their hands in the air when it comes to safety.
"We're going into the belly of the beast." Wendy chuckles to herself. "God probably wouldn't let it die because an elevator failed. Get in, pussy."
"...I fought something that looked like it could put up a fight against a Judicator. My sense of self preservation is already shot, Quentin." Alexis flashes a sardonic smirk.
"SO BE IT." Quentin is the first one to step it and woo! It doesn't immediately collapse!
