Inside the crowded bar, Silas stumbles into the storage room, clutching his head. The air grows cold and smells of ozone and night-blooming jasmine. A majestic, translucent figure of Alaric the Unicorn appears before him.

Silas: You... you're the one who leveled the M.O.D.S.S. units. Alaric (Spirit): My physical form is ash, but my essence remains. Silas, the horn you hold is a key to the Garden Behind the Fence.
