Sera called the path clear as far as the marked landing.

Eli used Nara’s movement burst to cross it. The pattern gave him speed along a path he had already checked; it did not choose a landing for him or guarantee that the stone would remain still. He reached the ordinary foothold Kellan had indicated, caught his balance against the sound side and let the burst end rather than spending it on an unnecessary second movement.

Before the next activation, Tessa called from the checked side. “Where are you? What ends this task?”

Eli named the marked landing and repeated the release signal and clearance call. No new confusion or missing recall appeared in the brief comparison. She acknowledged him, retaining the timed limit for the combined inspection and hold.

Weak-Point Sight opened across the support.

The fracture was worse from here. Its visible line joined a concealed weakness above the passage, where a displaced bearing pushed into material already broken along an old edge. Holding the nearest stone would not hold the load. Eli identified the connected section and called its position to Kellan.

Kellan confirmed from his own physical view. Juno marked the task start. Eli engaged Anchor on the selected support.
