Frank is feeling exhausted after the recent battles, casting, and finally an abseil, but he must push on. Must try and ignore the fatigue and continue.

A single minded determination settles over Frank Drake, swallowing any shred of fear he arranges his rig of Magical Cords and lowers himself down the huge drop.
As he nears the bottom 20 feet, he feels the line slacken above, not even looking up to confirm what he already knew, he kicked his old parascending basic training into gear and rolled through the air, along the ground and to a standing position, without so much as a bruise.
Frank allowed himself a moment to grin in a smug fashion as the thread spooled at the floor before him.

He looked up at the vast domed chamber and then inspected the floor, the huge iris like apeture of some ancient slr camera.

Frank didn't know what was hidden beneath the iris, but he knew he didn't want to be trapped in the middle if it should open.
Gathering up the coiled spell threads he starts quickly making his way to the side of the large chamber, hoping to find some controls, or another door, or something!

Maybe this iris is the door? Maybe he needs to put the ends of the thread through the iris then close it up? That would make them pretty safe.

After a short while he comes to the large, rusted metal walls of this immense room.

Have a look for any markings, or writing or any symbols...

Looking at the chamber Drake noticed that two columns of meter high symbols sat upon the wall, each the same tone and the wall itself as to be invisible without close inspection.

"Aye aye" mutters Frank as he makes his way closer to the markings, "This looks more like it..". His mutterings more to keep himself company than anything else.

Stopping before the markings he cranes his neck to take them all, then mentally cycles through all his different areas of expertise, looking for a meaning.
