Angel paused for a moment, looking down in some confusion.
He saw that the bottom of his wand was suddenly entwined by a vine sprouting faint green buds.
The vine... Angel seemed to realize something and turned to look.
No one was behind him.
Only a long trailing vine, hanging down, extending all the way to the Hanging Jail Stairway.
Angel looked at the vine, the end of which was unknown, and raised his eyebrows slightly. Without hesitation, he turned around directly and headed toward the end of the vine.
As Angel moved away, the vine would tug his wand. Yet, when Angel returned, the vine retreated like ebbing water.
Leaving only a vine shadow with green buds, guiding Angel's direction forward.
As Angel delved deeper into the Hanging Jail Stairway, his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.
...
"Why hasn't he come out yet?" Vay stretched his neck to look toward the door.
