William sits in awe as the world cracks, and soon turns into darkness as they are sent back into reality. Slowly getting up, his eyes were still blurry getting used to the sudden environment change. "I-Is everyone alright..." He asks.

"I'm alright..." Rose mumbles, realizing all her wounds had been rejuvenated, as if time just reversed. "H-huh? W-what about that!?" Rose asks as she realizes the pactio card was in her hand. She sighs with relief. If it was all an illusion, why was the card still there? A mystery... It might all be because of the illusion mage...

Asana was sitting on her knees, seeing something that only she could see.
"He took them... He took my tears!" Asana wanted to cry, but no tears came. In frustration she heaved a great cry towards the heavens, willing someone, anyone to give her her tears back.

Rie was feeling light headed, the illusion having done a number on her mental energies.
"Ah? I'm fine... I think... Maybe you should check on Asana? She seems upset." Rie said as she checked Aliidan (who was asleep again) for injuries.

Will walks over to Asana, "Tears? He took them? What do you mean?" Will inquires of her, it's best to comfort her now than later on. "I'll do anything I can to help..."

Asana locked her eyes to Will. She smiled sadly. "I met Truth, but nobody said I needed to make a payment for the knowledge... he took my tears... I can't cry any more. For good, or for bad." Asana said right before she latched onto will, hugging him tightly in her grief.

William gives a slight dazed look. "'Truth' took your tears...?" He asks, giving her a tight hug back, "Don't worry. You're my friend, I'll defintely get your tears back for you!" He smiles, giving her a hand up.

Rose smiles, "I think you can trust him. All of us will help you if you simply ask, you can definitely count on us!" Rose encourages. "Isn't that right, Rie? Aliidan?"

Rie and Aliidan both nodded in agreement.
"Yes, you can count on us, We'll help you if we can." Rie said with a smile.
The group left soon afterwards, not encountering any problems.
