[ It was a good idea. The best he'd have since he arrived here. He hustled a map from children and now look what was happening!
The pillar on pillar action sounded like it would make sense. Summoned down, weighting the decaying one like some... well, weight? It had to trigger something. He's seen far more complex devices in Inazuma, after all.
When the pillar summons forth and a few heavy knocks of stone beneath them trigger. A plate begins to open up – a secret 'trap door' a few feet away that rumbles the cover. Venti hadn't a second to think of moving before Zhongli takes hold of him. His ears nearly hurt from the grinding stones, of the change in the pressure. His hands go up to clutch onto Zhongli's forearms and soon. It was over.
There were more debris off closer to the pillar, which – good on Venti for learning him and Geo just don't seemingly mix. If he stayed, they'd both have been dealt damage if Zhongli didn't pop a shield.
Now, he's popping a boner. Go figure. ]
Are you alright?
[ Instinctively, his head tilts up and back – looking through the top of his eyes to him with dripping concern. Forget the supposed treasure. ]
