“It doesn’t, at least not in this instance.” He responded with a small sigh, poking his head in one room to look around as they passed by. “That I’m not sure of… When I accidentally went through mine, there wasn’t one on the other side. Guessing that’s normal, based on your comment.” He’d heard it was the same last time people took trips through the mirrors that had appeared… So perhaps there was something to be said for that consistency. People had found their way back out, after all.
“Afraid not. If I had, I wouldn’t still be on this side.” He’d have been long gone. Even if he was thrown into odd, dangerous situations, it didn’t mean he’d stick around in them if he had the choice. It wasn’t sensible, at least not without backup. The professor put on a brave face most of the time, but really, he was still every bit as scared as he had been in his youth when it came to things like this. The only upside was the danger was obvious. Those creatures, rather than mages that he couldn’t know if or when they’d stab him in the back for miss-stepping.
