Valtor doesn't have time to process this emotion. He needs to find a place to rest and then begin gathering essential objects. He can sense that there are still some on the older planets he wasn't able to destroy last time. He'll start there.
Valtor appears in a forest near that city and is immediately overcome with sadness. He didn't have a chance to complete his stay at the inn. He'll never see those places again.
Valtor chooses to go to the second darkness planet, which is now rather old, to see how it has changed. He can sense that the inn he stayed in so long ago is no longer there. What was once a town is now a city.
The journey takes a few days, but Valtor eventually reaches the essence and takes it easily. Like the others, he puts it in a crystal and transports it to his creators' dimension. Then, he leaves the prison planet.
