== Description ==
== Description ==
A mysterious gem that grants the ability to stick to walls. When acquired, the player can cling to wall surfaces for a limited time. During a Wall Ride, Sybil's speed decreases rapidly until she comes to a complete stop, sliding along the wall. However, if Sybil passes a turn that is not too sharp, her speed resets, allowing her to continue the Wall Ride until she stops or encounters another turn. This is why Sybil can perform an infinite Wall Ride around certain objects, such as round pillars.  Cling Gem is located in [[Tower Remains]] area
The Cling Gem grants the ability to cling to walls and move along them horizontally. It's essential for reaching high areas and navigating vertical sections of the castle.
