When it doesn't respond instantly as it had before, Equinox slows time over the entire island of Xia almost to the point of freezing it. He walks all over the island, collecting his Rahi and destroying anything he doesn't approve. Things like research on viruses, Rahi, Makuta powers, etc. are all destroyed. Prototypes, destroyed. He returns back to the gates and crushes the Nektoa into a metal ball before leaving the island altogether. Once gone, time resumes to normal. Not even a microsecond had passed in that time.
whoops. XAI instantly notices the issue.
As Equinox struggles to find or even get into the labs without any of the machinery working, at least ten seconds pass. It is also tremendously inconvienient for Equinox that temporal prototypes are under construction and he wastes further time trying to deactivate them.
As he gets out a complaint is sent to Destral to dicepline the rogue Makuta.
He already knows the entirety of the island, so finding labs isn't an issue. As for getting in, doors/entry ways are not an issue. He's a Makuta after all and can easily destroy anything in his path. As for temporal prototypes, he is already vastly ahead of Xia in knowledge of time and this little trinkets prove to not be a challenge. Even if he is slightly delayed, time only moves along a couple microseconds at best.

Xia's lack of stairways or similar makes getting down extraordinarily difficult, especially since the teleport blockers still function.

If it's not worth the trouble, Equinox doesn't bother and finished his actions. He leaves Xia and time resumes as normal.
