Something does indeed happen. About five minutes after it's situated itself back into a tidy, tied scroll, the sutra uncoils a few feet of itself and starts to...

Snake itself out of a gap in the tent door. A few minutes later, right as the last of the scroll slips out through the door, a shadow resolves itself across the side of the tent, where some sunlight had been coming through the trees.

It's vaguely person-shaped.

"Dev-chan?"
