Time stops for anyone other than the three of us. It's Briar's own wicked creation, something no other known Sage has created before her. Not knowing the consequences of putting the world on pause, it is a spell she has never dare used before now.
We are standing inside of a sigil, a pattern of symbols and shapes glowing in a violet hue across the ground and under our feet. A barrier slips over us as well, also infused with similar sigils - each piece working together to make this potent spell possible. One last sigil slips into place and the barrier darkens around us, blocking us off from the outside world.
