"don't forget the paper work you'll all be doing and letters of apology to EVERYONE that lives here. i believe the last census put the number at about five? seven million?" the high general replies evenly, letting them drop from the stasis bubbles as he brings out small rings, forcing them onto tide, theta, maka, and eclipse as they can feel their magic waning, the small pinches of the rings digging in so that removing the ring without the proper know how, would require the removal of the finger. As the blood, notably, didn't flow the high general gives the sorry assortment an irate look as he states "each one of you before me will be following me to the capital where you'll assist me with logistical paper work and the busy work that builds up as each new technology is rapidly outdated. except for you of course. i'll be leaving your punishments to the acting governor" gesturing to theta and maka when referencing their punishment before turning to go only to turn around add "also, if you leave the dimension the rings will kill you via consuming your life force and body" before completely leaving with eclipse and tide and marching with them back to the capital, letting tide limp to the gates before the high general takes out a syringe and injects him with the cyan mixture within.

Eclipse and tide would actually bear witness to tide's wounds closing before their eyes, the scarring on his chest healing and his fur returning to his chest. "both of you inside" The high general says evenly, the gate opening for them, the guardsmen standing at attention from within their booths.
