Lies and Deceit - A Fantasy RP

(Whelp until I magically get transported into River and Xylo's room awkwardly, I'm going to continue.)
Persepolis was 20 feet above the ground now. She was perched like a cat, clinging to the wall with her fingertips. Her handholds were strong but her feet were slipping. She spider-walked her feet back up to her chest.
Her eyes stung. Sweat dripped from her forehead into her eyes. She blinked. Heart racing, she looked up. Glancing around. Looking for a hold. Nothing. Absolutely nothing to be seen. She reached out her right hand. Her arm was full of tension. Her other limbs screamed with the effort of keeping her from falling. Persepolis stretched farther, leaning to her right. She found another slim crack in the wall. She grabbed onto it with her fingers. Crack! Her right foot fell, releasing a chip from the wall. She watched the chip fall. She could hear her heartbeat in her ears. Persepolis put her right foot back on the wall. She pushed off with her foot. Her left hand went up. Above her head. She felt her fingers bite into a little ledge.
Persepolis centred her feet underneath her. She pressed her body to the rock of the wall. Her muscles ached. She could hear her feet slipping again. She couldn't get a hold. Persepolis kept climbing, moving her hands first and briefly placing her feet after. She was getting higher. 30 feet. 35 feet. 40 feet. The top was near. She could see it. She reached out, hauling herself up and kicking against the wall. She made a few more moves. It was slow progress. 45 feet. 48 feet. The edge was right there. She could almost reach it. All she had to do was --- Persepolis extended her right hand. She almost had it. She stretched out her fingers. She felt the hard ledge just barely graze the underside of her fingers. She was almost ready to grab it.
Persepolis' legs gave out. Both of her feet slipped at once. Time stalled. Her heart stopped. She became weightless. Her left hand lost its grip. She was falling.

(Very nice post! No-one is going to River and Xylo`s room :p They`ll tell them separately, in different ways I think, but I might just be cray-cray.)
