The group has actually been waiting to test out their exosuit flight ability. Though they were aware that things would be a bit difficult for them, as it's literally their first time to fly.
But even being aware of the difficulty in front of them didn't stop them. This was why when Liam told them to follow him out the shaft, they stood up and did their best to fly.
The shaft, for them, was the first challenge.
It looked straightforward enough from below. A vertical column of open air, wide enough for several people side by side, running straight up through the building's core and opening to the Dimensional Space sky far above. Liam rose through it without effort, his body lifting with the ease of someone stepping onto an escalator.
His friends watched him go, then looked at each other.
"How hard can it be?," Matt asked, it wasn't really a question.
He bent his knees slightly, like he was preparing to jump, and then willed himself upward.
