The wall did not break, not were they able to go through it. Ignis followed the wall, also attempting to discover it's workings. Eventually Ignis got so frustrated that he fire punched the wall.

why does it feel like our roles have switched? She sighed watching him fire punch the wall. "I doubt that's going to do any good." She sighed, staring at the wall and searching for any weak points.

“Gosh, I’m stupid,” Alister mumbled when they got outside. He tried to wipe the tears away, but they just kept coming, so he just kept a hand over his eyes.
“No, I’m stupid.” Noel stood in profile to the boys, staring away from the temple. “I thought we were supposed to follow them, so I told you.”
“Noel, don’t say that! I mean, we just made a mistake… It’s not like we could go to the shadow realm by ourselves, anyway…” his voice softened as he took his hand from his face. His eyes were red and wet around his silver irises. “Ah, never mind. Evan, are you alright?” He asked, turning to him.
Who cares who was stupid and who wasn’t? Everyone got hurt, and he needed to make sure everyone was okay. He had to. It didn’t matter…

"I'm fine." He lied to them, smiling sadly at them. He walked up to the two of them. "Are you okay? I saw your tears, ignis wasn't doing well with words I would guess, he seemed tensed and stressed." He had switched to therapist mode unconsciously. He honestly just wanted a hug bit didn't want to be clingy or be weird.

“No you’re not!” Why was he suddenly frustrated now? “She literally said, ‘babysitting you and your deaf friend’! And look at you! Don’t lie to me. Noel has lied to me way to much about this kind of stuff.”
She gave a bittersweet laugh. “I learned to be honest the hard way.”
He sighed. “Yes, Ignis did seem stressed out; it was a bad time to involve ourselves, but that doesn’t justify his or Kali’s words.”
In his frustration and concern, he switched on his own therapist mode.

He went a bit stiff at the yelling, he didn't know why so he just listened.
"ah i guess your right…" he bit his lip fidgeting with his hands. he looked up at alister before just going in for the hug. "I don't wanna unfold on top of you though." he chuckled dryly it didnt last long
"Sorry if the hug is too much but i figured we both need one."

Ignis held his hand as he felt the pain. The fire, however, seemed to be absorbed into the wall. Ignis saw this and smile, "Not helpful in the way I wanted, but this will do."

"dont punch your knuckles bloodly." she huffed, wondering if she could walk through it without the shadow realm.

Ignis looked at his hand and saw no blood, but was curious, "The traps do not appear to show in the shadow realm, and most doors are only accessible in it too. Perhaps we can't see it because we're in this realm. Maybe some doors are visible physically."

“O-oh, no!” He stuttered a bit before calming his voice, though the tears were coming back. “Please. I’m a hugger, but El is not, haha.”
He opened his arms and wrapped them around Evan. Noel stood to the side, a little awkwardly.

He was worried he did something wrong when he said no but then Alister wrapped his arms around him so he stayed there.
"Well I'm glad your a hugger." He chuckled a little bit.

"so maybe if we get out of the shadow realm we can see the door." She went out of the shadow realm and tried to enter again.

Ignis came out of the shadow realm but there was no door. Although there was a faint shadow, barely visible. Ignis reached out and touched the wall. His hand went through, but it felt…fuzzy. Like touching a soft fur blanket. He moved through and soon his whole body went through. The inside was…even more beautiful. The flora was varied of flowers thought to be extremely rare or even extinct. The room was dark but every plant glowed. it even glowed beneath every step Ignis took. In the middle, was a huge black circle. Dark's Seal.

Kali watched as he went through on the bases of a shadow, almost like classic shadow travel. She pressed against the shadow attempting to enter, hut it wouldn't let her in. "oh come on!" She huffed

He stayed there for a moment, breathing in Evan’s scent. Letting out a calming breath, he pulled away. His tears had stopped flowing, but his face was still wet. Wiping his eyes, he glanced at his feet, a little shy.
“You, uh, you smell nice.”
Noel turned to them, grinning. “Really, Ali? That’s the line you’re going for?”
He reddened. “Noel, please…“
She sighed and went to hug him from behind. “I’m tired.”
“Me too.”

Evan waited until alister had pulled away to pull away himself, He flustered a little bit at his compliment.
"heh thanks." he smiled at the sibling love.

Ignis turned around and saw Ignatius in front of the door, "You play a very dangerous game son. No mortal man can withstand what is to come. Our children have been dying for generations, and each lost to ambush or insanity." Ignatius looked in the direction of Kali, "She has become special to you. Daughter of light but has the spirit of darkness. Each of you are more important than you know. Sound, Air, Fire, Dark…even the ones you stole. Each element will be needed to save us all…" Ignatius vanished like smoke clearing. Ignis reached out of the wall and pulled Kali through. He couldn't explain what he just heard, he could only let Kali enjoy the garden while he thought.

Kali was frustrated at the fact she wasn't being let it, she could hear talking inside the chamber but it was too muffled to tell anything. Then the talking stopped and she was pulled into the room. "What the-" she stopped at the sight of the guarden. She was never the biggest fan of flowers, but it was still pretty nonetheless. She turned towards ignis.
"What happened?" She rather not overload him with questions. She could always do it later.

Ignis looked down at the floor as he replayed Ignatius's words. He walked around the garden as if he knew the paths, "There are many evils in this world. With many yet to be fought. Where shall this world go if we do not defend it?"

"Ah i see. Well i guess we should save it, i dont much like people. but hey we gotta save it if were gonna live in it right?" she followed after him looking around the garden.

This is different from discord-

Kali: "Sometimes i feel like dying."
Ignis, slightly panicked: "Wh-"
Kali: "But then i remembered that i wouldnt see you again if i die."
Ignis: blushing

–
Anyone ever: "Sometimes i feel like dying"
Kali: "Get on my level pesant."

Kali, having consumed enough caffeine to kill three horses, crawling around the room rapidly:

WHERE ARE THE FRESH CHILDREN FOR ME TO FEAST UPON??
