All five were in agreement. The sphinx and temple crumble around the group, who barely make it through the portal that will bring them back outside…to 62Y3E. Diego and Athena ask questions of Alabaster and Río casts sending with distressing results. Tosh hitches a ride on an airship bound for Kornumb and captained by a familiar face.
