Synopsis

The chapter opens with a strong sense of fear and revulsion towards an unknown entity, who effortlessly shrugs off a hallucination spell and introduces himself as Jack Efron. The group, after some tense exchanges, are led to a safe location, but the mysterious figure's power is clearly a threat. Once in the safe apartment they implement traps and magical barriers for defense, eventually splitting up as some decide to leave and explore. Some of the group, in a completely separate scene, encounter stronger than usual monsters, and despite being bitten by one, continue to fight.
