In the hidden chamber beneath the ballroom, Emma, James, and their team discovered a trove of documents and artifacts that shed light on the Enigma Society's true agenda. The room was a veritable archive of historical tampering, with records of events subtly altered to serve the Society's interests.

They uncovered evidence of a grand plan-a plan that involved manipulating key moments in history to consolidate power and influence over generations. The Enigma Society had been working for centuries, silently guiding the course of nations and ensuring their dominance.

As Emma and James pored over the documents, they realized the gravity of the situation. The temporal anomaly that had brought them to this era was no accident; it had been orchestrated by the Society to divert their attention from their true objectives.

Their discoveries also revealed that the peace treaty signing scheduled for the following day had been tampered with. The original treaty, which promised lasting peace, had been altered to serve the Society's sinister goals, setting the stage for future conflicts.

Realizing that they had the opportunity to rectify history and thwart the Society's plan, Emma and James formulated a daring plan. They would infiltrate the treaty signing, expose the tampered document, and ensure that the original terms of peace were preserved.

With their team's assistance, they gathered the necessary evidence and prepared to confront the Society members during the treaty signing. It was a high-stakes gamble, and the consequences of failure were dire.

The day of the treaty signing arrived, and the town was abuzz with anticipation. Emma and James, disguised as diplomats attending the event, carried the unaltered treaty hidden among their belongings. The tension was palpable as they entered the grand hall where the signing was to take place.

As the event commenced, Emma and James discreetly made their way to the stage. They confronted the Society members, presenting the original treaty and exposing their nefarious plot. Chaos erupted in the hall as the truth was revealed, and the Society's influence crumbled in the face of public outrage.

The treaty signing proceeded with the genuine terms of peace, and history was set back on its rightful course. The Enigma Society's power had been broken, and their grip on the past had loosened.

As the dust settled, Emma and her team had to make a difficult choice. They could return to their own time, leaving behind the 19th century forever changed, or they could stay in this era to monitor and safeguard history against future threats.
