Episode 3-9

Minori
Minori has spent over a month in the Fukusei Clan's villag studying the books in their library to understand the Delta Sprite. There is no recorded instance of the Sprite appearing to them which leaves much to be discovered. First, he took inspiration from Lance's ATRAP device and theory crafted a spell to trap it into a catalyst stone originally purposed for storing mana. In a final success, he opens a portal using an arduous spell.

Inside of the portal is a dense Jungle surrounding an overgrown Temple. Everything beyond the small jungle and temple is a void of darkness that creates this single space in otherwise nothingness. The ground sways beneath him and he feels it soaring through space at an unsteady rate. When he enters the Temple he finds the statue with a glowing green eye and assumes the Sprite is within it. He begins to cast his created spell to retrieve it.

After several minutes a figure approaches him. A girl in dark clothing and a face mask with a snake coiled around her arm that speaks to him. She peels off her mask and a green gas begins to fill the room. She ignites it and Minori narrowly escapes through the ceiling.

The dimension collapses in on itself from the massive explosion and the next thing Minori feels is being shot out of it, rolling on the ground and blind in his left eye. It must have been the gas that had caused it, but he'd not know how wrong he was for a long time...
