Hijacking John Flynn's personal limousine after discreetly getting him in trouble with some local construction workers, the group manage to reach and arrive at the Sanctorum, and find the Starhold. Initially having trouble with the book (which causes the group to get warped into numerous places around the Sanctorum), Glimmer manages to gain control over the Starhold, which reveals that the incursion happened because of Riot shattering the Star Siege. Before they can learn about how to reverse the incursion, the group are discovered by Doctor Stephen Strange, to whom they owe an explanation. | ||||
