The entire subterranean prison chamber shifted before Ferra finished securing the shattered sentinels with stabilizing wedges.
Massive nullstone slabs detached from the foundation without tumbling downward, held aloft by a sudden, massive spatial tear.
The captive child, the extraction array, the soul membrane, and the spatial glass slid westward as a single sealed monolith.
Rumi struck the spatial breach with her amber wing, anchoring the nearest threshold before the entire room could vanish.
"Destination hidden now!" she chirped in alarm, her claws digging deeply into the vibrating dimensional seam.
"The road has no ending that my claws can perceive... it leads nowhere!"
Nari manifested her smoke-gold wing behind the retreating monolith, preventing the spatial fold from snapping completely shut.
"Hold the seam, sister!" she shouted, her teeth gritted against the violent drag. "Do not let it swallow you!"
