[quote=@CollectorOfMyst] Endar began to cast his spell, with the assistance of the Harbinger or not. He couldn't afford to wait any longer - not since last time. But as he began to cast his spell, all those currently present were caught in the aura. Depending on their willingness to move into the book, they would either stay, or move with him into that realm. [/quote] [url=http://www.angelfire.com/in/singingbird/images/linking.wav]Endar experienced a most curious sensation[/url], and the whole of the world around him faded into nothingness. The eerie, alien pitch surrounding him was darker than the furthest reaches of the forests of Noctis could ever be. There was nothing here, save for him... And the Linking Book he had pulled into the Link with him. The book provided him with a crucial realization. Had he been truly on his own in the darkness with no other objects of reference, he might have gone on thinking he was simply adrift in oblivion. From the motion of the book however, as it pinwheeled and fluttered in the void (if all was dark and there was no light, how could he see it? It appeared before him as though plainly illuminated under the light of day.), it was clear: He was not drifting. He and the book were FALLING. He barely had time to grasp the notion before a world erupted from the nothingness about him. The structure he and the others had arrived at was of immaculately fine and precise construction, surely impossible - at least, impossible within the five realms - by anything accept magical means. Looking over the side of the roof, the city surrounding the curiously ornate structure were of similar make. The roads were impossibly smooth and flat, the buildings made of queer, alien materials that defied recognition. Not even in the Oriens, or in Verum itself was the architecture so refined, or sophisticated. The book had appeared alongside him, still suspended in the air. Upon inspection, he discovered an unfortunate development - the image upon the pane of the Linking Book's third page was still of the rooftop he now stood upon! Depicting all of its current inhabitants, no less. As it was, the book would be worthless for returning whence they had all ventured. If nothing else, presumably the book could be used again to return to the rooftop. [@CollectorOfMyst][@Blueflame][@BrokenPromise][@Majoras End] The gem upon Akemi's hand suddenly began to shine brilliantly once more. In the air above the rooftop, the same, curious opacity of white bled into being, followed by the strange, geometric, possibly symbolic arrangement as had appeared before. Once more, merely being within the presence of the strange being carried with it an ineffable, epiphanic realization of meaning as to what, or perhaps who, the entity was.

Its pages fluttered open frantically, before halting eerily on a single uprised page, drawn taut towards the sky while the remaining pages loosened and fell lax. With a faint humming sound, as though of a distant bird, the page became severed from its place in the new Linking Book. It drifted, suspended in the air as the second Linking Book's pages immediately began to reorder themselves once more via the same unseen force that kept it aloft, presenting the Linking Pane upon its third page. Unlike the Linking Book Endar had seen fit to force through the Link with him, the new book's Linking Pane was black and featureless. [img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/a405b091-2f93-415f-8fc4-b4db498edd7a.png[/img] Whatever force had kept the page floating in the air vanished. The sheet was immediately snatched by the mischievous air, and was torn from the rooftop to drift and flutter freely over the city, slowly descending. The Godhead, once more, vanished as it had arrived - bleeding out from the world like fluid through a filter. The glow of Akemi's soul gem faded.
