However , even after he came to an agreement to with Actae, John knew Pech was too dangerous to be left free after his trigger was had been activated. John pledged to one day return and free Pech as he and the rest of the group left to journey to the [[Golden Throne]]. However, Pech was left standing there motionless long, long after Grammaticus departed,{{Fn|5c}} as the latter was forced to spent an immeasurable time on a quest involving fate and spacetime.{{Fn|7}} Regardless, Pech was not idle over this long period, as he attempted to use micro-movements to extremely slowly disarm the motion-sensitive mine.{{Fn|5c}}
