I haven't finished Act 6 yet so I can't check myself, but in Discord I've been told that the story is there even after the timer ended, and that the timer was actually counting down for the banner. I don't know why they would do that but the times line up

Yes, I don't understand why it's time gated either. How do we notify Kuro (the devs) about this?
