“Trip Hazard” This is why you don’t see armies with big shields, spears and polearms charging. These things don’t make running easy. You’ll likely tangle up your feet or someone else’s.
Warning: Things will get more extreme/intense than usual from episode 42.08 through to episode 45.11.
Be careful out there.

Panel 1
The robed gobo glances to the companion on the right with a grimace as they run towards the viewer down the narrower tunnel. The unfortunate companion, Nab, has tripped up on Zap's staff and begins to tumble to join the wizard on the ground. Zap, just one stride behind them, gestures forward towards the spell effect (offscreen) and shouts out a warning. The monk's bell-staff rings like a heart beat, "Dūm Dūm"...
Zap: "<You won't make it!>"
Panel 2
..."Dūm Dūm". In an extreme closeup, the robed gobo's hand reaches out towards Nab's, clad in a golden glow, and grabs hold of the falling gobo's wrist.
The robed gobo: (mystic words)
Zip, offscreen and fading within the spell effect: "<Run! You have to run!!!>"
Panel 3
The scene returns to the previous view. Now a few paces back, Zap lifts a hand towards the spell effect (offscreen) and turns away as if expecting a large blast. A much faster monk sees it as well, with a moment of panic striking. Almost effortlessly, the robed gobo has kept Nab relatively upright and has positioned the gobo slightly ahead. The rhythmic heartbeat chiming of the bell grows louder each moment, "Dūm Dūm"...
Nab: "<Drop your staff!>"
Panel 4
..."Dūm Dūm", until the pair makes it to the event horizon of the spell. All reservation and uncertainty has left the monk's face. With eyes closed serenely, the robed gobo straight arms Nab through the divide between their world and a void of pure white. Not willing to be the sole gobo arriving on the other side, Nab tries to reach back to grasp the monk's other hand, but it is too late. The spell has finalized, and the only parts of the robed monk that cross over is the extended arm and the top of the bell-staff.
Nab, words fading within the spell effect: "<I'll pull you in!>"
