Mhynt took a steady breath. "Right."
She hesitantly approached the relic fragment and reached toward it. At a single touch... nothing seemed to happen. Mhynt frowned at this; that didn't seem right for some reason. She drew her blade--a muscle memory for channeling Radiance--and focused on the relic again. It felt warmer. Brighter. It was working--it just needed a jolt of power for what it needed.
And then... a flash. Another flash. Like it was coming to life.
Finally came an overwhelming pulse that blinded Mhynt--and took everyone in the room within it. A few startled shouts accompanied the humming burst, but Koa, Mhynt, and Archie saw something more.

Nobody else was around. They stood in a white void shrouded in mist of the same color, or perhaps a hint of blue. Their shadows were uncharacteristically dark and wobbly.
"What...?" Mhynt stepped back. Her shadow didn't follow.
All three saw their silhouettes rise from the ground, morphing into a three-headed hydra that snarled at them and sizzled in the bright environment. Linked by a thin, black strand, Koa, Archie, and Mhynt knew precisely what this was.
Mhynt drew her blade silently and glanced at Koa and Archie.
