"I'm here!" Doug's voice resounded in Philip's mind.
Suddenly, a golden island, the size of a small village, emerged. Beneath it, thick black clouds carried them.
While Philip ran, he spotted Doug standing on the island's surface. Instead of a monocle, Doug now wore glasses with a slight crack on the left lens.
Philip also noticed the men behind Doug emitting a golden hue. At the forefront of them was a figure identical to Philip himself, Raven, originating from the core memory.
Seeing this, he swiftly turned around and used petrification on the incoming grey men.
Simultaneously, the golden men on the tiny island dashed forward and embraced them. The grey men who hadn't petrified also rushed forward to hug the golden men.
"..."
Witnessing this bizarre and intimate moment, Philip was momentarily stunned, unsure if this was a fight or a reunion.
However, he quickly recollected himself and moved to Doug's side.
