Bruce's brow furrowed, genuinely confused as to Vale's sudden retreat. He briefly glanced behind him, considering the option of deconstructing the wall that lay between him and Jenso, who had yet to emerge.

Bruce began to run after Vale into the next chamber, which, he noticed now, was much more expansive in scope than the last. Grunting with the effort, he completely reshaped the layout of the temple. Pillars ground against the floor, and the ground rumbled as full sections of walls perpendicular to the temple's exit reformed and stretched out, sliding in alternating order from either side of the room to create new walls between Vale and the exit. Pushing himself a bit further, he also broke down the floor immediately in front of Vale into sand to slow him down.
