This chapter opens with a description of the cursed eye, which allows its holder to see the moving towers from a distance. The sight awakens the curiosity of those who have never seen such a thing before. The narrator explains that the sight is not a closed structure, but a "mystery" that can still be seen from outside. He warns the reader that there is only one way to get to the tower, and that he and Nicholas will have to run away soon. He tells them that the door is behind them and that they should not waste it. He says that he did not want to say a goodbye like this, but after all he can finally redeem himself for all he's done to you. He asks if he can hear him, and he says that it is gone. He wonders why they are back in the tower. He is sure that they crossed the door, but he wonders if it was just the one they entered. He thinks that there are many more towers to explore, and wonders if they might be the first they have seen in a long time.
