Without recognizing the reveal of the end of the trial, Alia finishes off Nigel before things truly settle down. Opal tries to use a spell scroll to revive Nigel but in the end he is too far gone. The stranger leads to group out of Thorne's tower and meets up with other Vigil's who rush Nigil and Lanaster away in a teleporting carriage. The Stranger introduces himself as Henry Van Dyke and welcomes the party into the Vigils. Van Dyke leads the party back to the Fairy ring teleporter they woke up in. Eventually they meet the other test group there and after a long rest, they teleport to the Lighthouse. Once the party reaches the massive HQ of the Vigils, they meet Draven Durill, the acting Leader of the Vigils and he explains that they will go to a few months of training. Barren in private asks for Draven to look and see if a girl in his care could stay with a family of Vigils on the Isle of Ostow. On the carriage ride to the training facility, Alia has a call with her mother that reveals she was responsible for the heightened challenge for the trial. She wanted Alia to fail so she doesn't go somewhere actually dangerous and she looses her like Alia's father.
