We finally had the magic scroll we were looking for, and with that, we were sure we'd passed the second trial.
Or… so we thought.
"So…" Rhydan raised an eyebrow, eyeing the scroll now in my hand, "we press the teleport crystal orb now, right? Straight back to Arcane Spire. Cheers, goodbye, and fried chicken time?"
Yae crossed her arms. "That… sounds way too easy."
Lucen didn't turn around, still scanning the area. "Too quiet. If this is really a trial, it shouldn't be this quick or this simple."
I stared at the scroll in my hand. Still warm. Still pulsing faintly. But… no other clues. No triumphant ding-ding! No glowing light to pick us up. Just an empty arena and mist growing thicker by the second.
"They seriously didn't tell us how to get out?" I muttered.
"I think this is part of the test," Yae said, kicking a small rock. "They're testing us to the very end. Including… how we escape."
