As Malchor begins the process of teleporting them miles away, Presto is busy holding open his Hat with one hand and shoveling countless things off half a dozen shelves with the other. This jar, that bag, that stone, a few vials filled with...probably parts of various animals. He reaches deeep down inside the bag (far deeper than it should be possible for it to go) and arranges them into prepared spots so he can reach them in a hurry.
"I don't like this, it's not enough time, I need time to prepare and plan, to think." He forces himself to take a long breath and lets it back out.
"Ok. Ok. Alright. I'm as ready as I'm going to be. I'll be right behind you. I'm going to prepare something as well. " As the others prepare their equipment, Presto reaches into a couple different pots on opposite shelves and mixes them together while muttering a few words under his breath and staring at a random point on a near wall. The more observant note that the wall, while undamaged, is heavily scarred, charred, and pockmarked. Phosphorescent sparks appear in midair as blazing heat emanates from an ever-increasing tear leading...somewhere hot. A pure flame appears through the tear, but instead of flickering it holds its shape as it reaches through the tear.
