the moment eight of them had stepped into the circled area, the runes on the floor activated. zon had truthfully thought that he might be able to head over to where red was and at least attempt to attack him.

it was still hard for him to comprehend even with his system how a barrier could stop his attack, the energy of his fists, but allow them to simply walk into the area. with the light consuming them all, each of them felt their bodies shifting position.

it wasn't pushing them in anyway, but it was as if the floor was moving itself, placing them into position. now stood in a circle staring at each other were the eight of them.

"is this something we should be worried about?" lince asked.

"the formation isn't meant to harm us, but is meant to keep us still," raze answered. "at least, the part that i could see."

lince quickly turned his head and raised an eyebrow. were they really trusting to follow this man that would make off-hand comments, on an island that they didn't understand where everything was trying to kill them.

all of them felt like they were trapped in a tube of sorts around them. they could barely move their feet and hands a few inches. they were stuck, and there was nothing they could do.

eventually, the flooring started to lift up slightly, splitting from the ground, and after lifting up, it started to sink into the floor. all of them were sinking into the ground extremely quickly and could only see darkness around them.

they continued to descend down further and further. heat was starting to get to them all, and despite them trying to move they were still unable to. when tilting their head up, they could no longer see the hole which they were in above.

at some point it felt like they were no longer moving, but they couldn't be sure. the only thing they could see were each other, due to the lighting of the stones on the ground which they stood on.

raze couldn't understand what would lead a man to do so much work. it wasn't a pure emotion like revenge that had driven him so what was it, what was the reason?

when carefully staring at the wall of crystals, it was clearly the way they had been placed was to completely draw their energy out as well. raze could see carefully crafted runes written underneath each crystal.

they had to be hand-planted in the area, there was no doubt in raze's mind though, this had to be where the golden globe was, and he had to figure out how to break free of the formation that was trapping them.

meanwhile, beatrix continued to turn her head, she too was in awe of the crystals but had different thoughts in her head. she continuously was thinking of the words spoken by zon, spoken by the others since they had been here.

'all of these crystals, this island, and everything else, it's clear that something bigger is happening, and we the dawnblade clan were told nothing. i understand ricar's feelings but doesn't he feel suspicious as well of all of this?'

'how can we just help alter, when we have no idea what all of this is for! i don't think we should help them, i don't think we should hand over the item to alter... at least for the sake of

pagna.'

the doubts in her head had been growing for a while, but she was still reluctant to make a decision for everything she had been taught in the light faction and in the clan.

in the middle of these thoughts, several crystals above lit up, and energy lingered in the air like small little particles. they gathered above them in the center, until a mystical image formed, of a simple hooded man in the center. the facial features or eyes couldn't be seen as it was a simple mist.

yet the figure looked almost familiar to all of them.

"it's nice to meet you all, i am bofan, the founder of the dark faction."
