tl;dr[edit | edit source]
Synopsis[edit | edit source]
The chapter opens with Erin cleaning the inn after the damage caused in the previous chapter. The perspective then shifts to the Blighted Kingdom, where a major spell is being cast. The spell results in a group of young humans appearing, lost and confused, in the center of a ritual circle. They are declared the [Heroes] of Rhir.
The rest of the chapter transitions between different perspectives of people involuntarily appearing in Innworld:
- A group of children appear outside an old swordsman's house in the countryside.
- A young woman appears at a runner's guild with earphones and iPhone.
- Twins appear inside a throne room, with at least one smartphone, where a king is present.
- A girl teleports from a prison to an adventurer's guild, dressed in a yellow jumpsuit.
- Another girl is teleported into an antient tomb patrolled by a guardian.
- A blind man teleported from a mall into a forest.
