What is recorded here
Magic misleads, and humanity must remember that the choice to leave behind is the reason the chamber still stands. The chamber is a visible room, not a hidden cage. It shows the chamber in which the claim is being made. It does not claim that you are a chamber, and it does not ask you to stop existing.
