"Doesn't look like it." He's already eaten a terrible-tasting ration bar (finding things sealed to the point of being undetectable by animal senses is difficult in Gotham, forget Baedal) and is ready to get back to work, as it were. He's got an idea about where they're going, and it's going to suck, but it's also the best idea about where they're going he's had since they set out. (Comforting.) He relays this to Seoraj, quiet enough not to disrupt the ambiance of whatever's deep inside the rock, lurking, but leaves out phrases like 'it's going to suck.'

(It can probably be inferred.)

Rock climbing through a cave system is claustrophobic, dark, uncertain work, but Bruce is sure-handed and has such a calmness to him that it seems like nothing could possibly go wrong without his permission. More than once, they have to sit still and quiet as something creeps past them towards one of the cliff-side fissures, apparently off to bask in the warm light. Pockets of air seem thicker, in places, too humid, but cold.
