POV Pyromaniac:
His red cloak rustled as he marched down the black corridor, the crystal safely stored inside his storage ring. He couldn't even comprehend how it got there! The last time he was aware, he just put the VR helmet on his head, and somehow the crystal traveled with him.
He could hardly keep his flames in check; his reward and the reward for his master were already almost in their grasp.
'Who would have thought that the VR helmet could also bring physical objects with it?'
"Let me through. I have something for their Majesty—something they would want to see."
His destination was already within reach, only the one last gate of black steel and gold separating him from the portal. The moment he approached it, the glowing blades of the long halberds blocked his path.
