At the moment, he lacked his bull-shaped helmet. He had lost that months ago before being taken to Harrenhal , though they would have served him no good now. Gendry was strong and hardheaded, but not enough to go bashing rocks open.
"I've mislaid them. Couldn't say where." He did have his sword and so he drew that instead. He had seen blind men tap a stick along the ground, so it reasoned that he could use a sword for the same. He followed her voice as he tapped the sword along the ground in front of him. "What were you doing in here?"
No more earth comes against her fingertips as she continues to move forward, and Katsa straightens and lengthens her steps, emboldened by the space found in the darkness. There must be light somewhere, she thinks, so that her eyes can adjust and see what's around them, or at least a pocket of air from the outside. She fingers the flint tucked in a pouch on her belt. Until there's a clear source of air, she won't risk lighting a flame.
"I was curious." That's honest enough. "I thought I saw a path, so I took it just to see where it leads. Is it your cave? The roof may need some rebuilding."
"We use these caves." He did not bother to elaborate on who the we meant. "It ain't no decent place for women to go mucking about."
Though if they didn't find their way out, then it would make scarcely any difference at all. But just as she wasn't giving up, he was still intent on his own exploration. Eventually the tip of his sword found a wall and that wall led to rubble. From the feel of it, this was where the cave had collapsed. The stones were thick, but this seemed a more likely place to start than anywhere else. He set his sword to the side and started searching for any stone that could be loosened and pulled free.
