~~Narration~~
Theo arrived in his rental car minutes before the ritual was completed. He hoped and prayed they hadn't shifted again and was glad to find he had arrived before the crossing.
He introduces himself as part of the Mysterium and gives Ruby the note. Asking about the situation, he is given a basic update and follows them into Shadow.

The group passes into the Shadow, seeing the material give way to ephemereal representations. Or are they? Perhaps the material world is the reflection. Although spirits continually observe them, and approach their periphery, the group is large enough to stave off any overly-curious spirits.
After some time, they see the park in the distance, and Animus, Fiddler, and Joshua can begin to discern the glowing obelisks.
