In response to Sohalia's request, someone ran to the Skyport, and quickly returned with a rope. They tied the rope to the railing, and dangled it down towards the man.
Trinket let out the tiniest little huff. "That's cheating," she told Sohalia. "You are the seeker. You can't have them help.
The dangling man managed to grab hold of the rope. He got a firm grip on it, bracing himself as best he could. Two men up above, by the railing, started pulling on the rope to raise the man to safety.
This wouldn't do. Trinket didn't like it when people didn't play fair. She looked at the rope and gave it a command: unravel. The rope threads started to undo themselves, making the man's grip slip. In a few moments, the rope would lose enough threads that it wouldn't be enough to support him anymore.
Trinket studied the woman she had declared as seeker. She hadn't decided yet if this one was fun to play with. She stepped closer and whispered softly into Sohalia's ear, "Seeker, time to seek. No one else can save him but you."
She stepped back, leaving the seeker to seek. She was curious whether Sohalia could win the game by herself.
