The townsperson who had been split in two instantly dissolved into a pile of letters, lines, and symbols that scattered and vanished into the air.
"So that's how it is... I remember now!"
Lloyd whispered, quickly bending down to carry his sister on his back. Then, grabbing Desda with one hand and his blade with the other, he charged toward the town entrance.
With the aid of his Swordsmanship, the slow-moving townspeople were no match for him. They dissolved into letters and symbols as Lloyd forcibly carved a path out of town.
He broke into a jog, fleeing toward a light in the distance.
It was another brightly lit town.
But as the three of them drew near, the familiar sounds of revelry and music returned, and a joyous atmosphere once again filled the air.
On the side of the road was the same sign, written in bright red letters:
'Welcome to Arkham Town'
