The mine runner reached Hajin with broken brace splinters across his coat and stopped beside the evidence table.
He forced the warning through two breaths before he pointed toward Gold Mountain.
"The five-band creature came through the service shaft," he reported while one hand stayed against the yard wall. "It is tearing apart Ferra's braces and pulling light from below."
Ferra transferred the recovered band plus cracked plate into her sealed ceramic compartment.
She released the Legendary Chain only after every fragment rested behind separate clamps.
"I follow with the evidence wagon," she said while placing the Chain into Hajin's left hand. "Do not let its remaining fittings touch the copied plate."
Hajin wrapped the center links around his bandaged right palm while Juna opened two Wings.
She caught his coat beneath one claw and carried both of them across the empty service road toward the mountain.
