As soon as Jake linked his mind to the Purgatory everything around him disappeared except for his allies. For a brief moment he found the fantasy and very personal landscape of the Purgatory Dream and he even saw his Digestor clone for the first time. The climatic and environmental conditions were not so different from the 4th Floor as they were optimal for those of his bloodline.
But Jake had no intention of fighting his doppelganger here, even though it was the ideal ground. His companions could not afford to wait any longer.
With a thought, he activated the Spaceship mode, which was really just an alternate manifestation of the Purgatory Dream. In its database was the blueprint of a 7th generation Consortium Interstellar Battleship, and this was just an illusion like everything else his Bronze Artifact could create.
Yet it was precisely what he needed. As long as these illusory constructs remained within the realm of the Purgatory, they were as real as real could be.
