It was a good thing, in Felix's opinion, that they hadn't encountered anyone once they got into Babi Lighthouse. He didn't like the way Saturos and Menardi kept terrifying and attacking people. He didn't think anyone had died, but there was no way to make sure, not when the Proxians were in such a hurry.

In any case, they had reached the part of the Venus Ruins the lighthouse was built on. At the other end of the room was a door that looked like it hadn't been opened in a very long time. In fact, Felix didn't see how it could open at all.

Alex, as usual, hung back without explaining himself as Saturos hurried the others over to the door. "Felix," the latter said, "come here and close your eyes."

Puzzled, he did so. Sheba looked around nervously, staying close to him. He decided to ask her about it later, but things were tense enough at the moment.

"This wall bears an invisible button. I want you to find it and press it."

His eyes still closed, Felix frowned in puzzlement. Nonetheless, he reached out and put his hand on the wall, trying to feel its structure with his Psynergy. Abruptly he found something odd. Exerting his power a bit, he felt it move. A moment later the room filled with the groan of millennia-old hinges opening.

Suddenly Felix heard unfamiliar voices from the other side of the room. Saturos and Alex quickly herded them all through the door, which closed behind them.

Feeling for Sheba's hand, Felix stepped forward into the dark.
