The Dominion God opened a narrow escape route above the throne while Loccy carried the foundation below it.
White-gold light connected the Crowned Avatar's hidden core to an aperture beyond Ouro while the route crossed three palace towers and one cloud layer.
It avoided every street where the outer pylon ring had failed, and if the vessel collapsed, the core could withdraw through that road.
"Closing it before the Court boundary opens may redirect the avatar into the King," Aria said within Hajin's thoughts.
Juna manifested four Wings and looked toward Ferra's tower map before saying, "Certify every structure empty, and I will store the return cut around the aperture and release only after the core commits."
Ferra used Masterwork Network to inspect the first tower's physical supports. Eirwen's captains verified occupancy records while Rumi and Nari checked only routes they had previously touched.
