>Can we get through the room in time? If so, do it. If not, repeat the portal trick, but make sure the portal's high enough that we have time to think of something else if it doesn't work a second time.

>It doesn't seem so. Thus, you create a portal large enough to engulf the whole ceiling. That was close!

>It seems like some godforsaken mix of platforming hell and a shooting range, all in one! Several platforms are on the air as spikes are shot all over the place. Gravity feels much stronger here to boot.

>Form a portal in front of one of the spikes. If it passes through normally, move through the room from platform to platform, using portals to block the spikes. If it moves around the portal, form a spherical portal around ourself, making sure there are no openings for spikes to slip through, then proceed from platform to platform, moving it along with us as a barrier. Make sure to make an opening in the bottom whenever we land on a platform, as we don't want those falling through to Makai; we kind of need them to stay here.

We're not in Makai; I don't think we can do any of that here.

>You do so! Predictably, more portals appear just inside your barrier causing them just to look like pretty windows.
