Another clank of chains, and Liao immediately pumps his legs into action. He had been reluctant to take up a weapon, unsure what it would do to Ken's heart if he did...but it seems he doesn't have a choice now. Sprinting back into the labyrinth, twisting corridors and passageways spilling out and dragging him deeper into Tartarus.]
