The sound of footsteps paused while the movements came to an abrupt halt.
As she turned around and looked into the room, she noticed that the puppets had frozen into place.
Moments later, a click rang out.
Their armored bodies melted into silvery liquid before sinking into the floor beneath them.
Within mere seconds, every knight puppet had disappeared, as though they had never existed.

As if it were a living organism, the cracks along its surface squirmed and merged together. The broken walls worked to restore themselves.
Even the disturbance in the air itself was smoothed out, and the previous peace reappeared.
Soon, the chamber looked exactly as it had when they first entered—besides the lack of items and furniture.
Seeing this, Liora's eyes narrowed.
