While the many young magical girls in the Silver Corridor were still running around to form teams, in another part of the Academy District, within an ancient building, a luxurious and opulent hall, a large door was opened.
Countless magical girls serving the Royal Court stood at the entrance. Not a single person spoke or looked up, all lined up on either side of the door, pledging allegiance to some presence in a reverent and solemn manner amidst the silence.
Footsteps could be heard from within the door.
These footsteps drew nearer and nearer, until they reached the junction of the door frame at a certain moment, and then, without hesitation, stepped into this space.
