"I climbed through earlier and found a good defensive position at the top where we can see the city," Labyrinth says.
Garret is the only one who has trouble navigating the stairwell. I turn when he doesn't follow. His expression says he's about to tell us to leave him again.

I'm still reserving my final judgement, and that will most likely depend on if he makes it out alive or not.
