Mabry fell, letting out a short sharp shriek, before catching herself with her staff, which was blessedly wider than the opening. She did not glance down, not daring to see how far a drop was beneath her or what awaited her below. She could not afford to fall.
Still she was in a precarious position, the staff under her arm pits, leaning forward to stop her body falling further down through the portal. It was not a comfortable position and it left her quite vulnerable. She was not entirely sure if she'd be able to pull herself back up, as her upper body strength was minimal.
