The stranger invites Taryn to follow the orange line and lends his flask to Taryn to nurse Lumina back to health. Whatever liquid the stranger carries instead begins to dissolve her. Meanwhile Barney offers up more of his blood to Anyra, who willingly absorbs it through her marked hand as Eike observes everything, feeling like an adult in a room full of children.
