Brandy had returned to the temple that she thought was her home, until she tried to leave again. Her main hall no longer led outside, but simply repeated itself, extending farther than she could see. Her considerable powers of growth, regeneration, and healing were rendered useless in terms of finding an escape, but typically, she was more worried about the others she would be unable to aid while she was trapped here than she was about her own imprisonment.

But after storms & the pandemic cut off access to the project for months, the team was pared back to a skeleton crew, & she was cut loose.
