Music status:
If Emerald Gift is playing:
Eerie music rumbles from the stage. It's unsettling, but probably best that they test it out before the concert.
If 571 or Brain Staples(?) is playing:
Punk music blasts from the stage. It's a strange contrast to the music they're planning to put up there Halloween night.
If any other music (Dance Music, Midgard Player music, etc.) is playing:
Strange music that not even the hall's token hipster appreciates echoes from behind you.
Or, replacing all of the above
If Emerald Gift is playing and you're etheric:
You stand at the foot of the stage wholly intending to assess the situation, but nothing can tear your attention away from the brilliant green lights floating above the stage or their more numerous, dimmer kindred.
And a second line added once the portal has formed:
Arcs of power flicker between the lights, suggesting the ragged edges of a hole torn through a crystalline wall.
And if someone went through with a laser equipped:
Arcs of power flicker between the lights, suggesting an ornate crystal bridge.
