As soon as Sunny shut the gate behind them, the terrifying roar that had been approaching was cut off. A few moments later, the tower seemed to shake a little, as if something had crashed into its walls.
However, apart from a little dust that fell from the ceiling, nothing happened. They seemed to be safe.
…From the threats outside, at least.

His eyes narrowed a little.
"Well, that… is unexpected."
He had wondered about what the interior of Aletheia's Tower would look like a lot. In his mind, there were two possibilities… either it would be perfectly preserved and full of tantalizing knowledge, or serve as the lair for the most harrowing abomination yet.
The truth was that it was both and neither at the same time.
