Mere minutes after the party got kicked out of the principal's office, Vanis joined them and did not look happy, but had ensured that the deal was still on.
The party ventured back to the mirror room at the spire and were let in without any issue. They decided that the best course of action would be to keep inspecting the mirrors, so they started on the right side farthest from the mirror shard.
Taking a long time to carefully inspect each and every mirror, Mordus got bored and started playing with the mirror shard, while still connected to the other twenty mirrors. A fog on the ground of the room started getting more intense, and dense and looked like sea foam. Everyone but Mordus felt a pull, a cold breeze, and the sounds of seagulls, then disappeared, leaving Mordus in the room alone.
After a few moments of panic, Mordus looked at the mirror shard again and was pulled as well. A smell of salty water hit their nostrils; they were now outside, clouds around them, the air thin. The party heard confused shouts in different languages. Followers of the Gallivanter stood in front of them, assuring that it was 'too late to save her'.
