The Explorer escaped with Lina through an ancient teleportation array, but he arrived in a sealed Golden Age chamber before Murphy and Triss, who captured him and spoke with the Scholar.

• Natalie, Lina, Yvette, and their allies found a stable Otherworld rift more than thirty meters across beneath R-9 Base.
