To Utopia, Hell...

[Olvelsper]

"Considering everything that's happened so far, I think it just isn't coincedence anymore."

[RyderHakubi]

Sighing at the calm, Ryda reaches to her right and grabs her guitar.

Now, at most times, this could be considered a bad thing.  When weilding this guitar, Ryda's been known to kill, maim, destroy, and possibly even kill.  It's a weapon, and that's just how it's previous owner intended it to be.

However, in this case, it's probably a good thing that she has it.  Music calms the soul, and keeps one's mind busy.

Or, it can be used to play angsty music about not knowing who you are.  Either way, it's beautiful and haunting, especially since Ryda's singing voice is quite good, despite her assertions to the contrary.

"At least a lion is relatively safer to get the starstone from," Leets sighed, placing the sketch down.

"This little gem was being worn by New Reno's crime boss."

[Olvelsper]

"And he has top of the line assasins slash bodyguards with him at all times."

[Dracos]

"Tough, Tough." Yomi answered.

Notably, the old man hadn't joined them in the box yet, staying outside.

[Carthrat]

"Perhaps he would be willing to trade it?" muses Mei-Ling.

[Shukuen]

"That's only two we have confirmed so far. We still should find the other three."

[Olvelsper]

"Hm. I wonder why the old storyteller hasn't joined us yet?"

[Shukuen]

"I guess I'll go check."

Leets glanced around curiously. "How do we get out of this thing?"

[Olvelsper]

"Eh. It can wait. What I want to know right now is what those starstones could do for *us*." He turned pointedly towards Yomi.

[Dracos]

"Mmm...besides open the doors to the towers, potentially, you mean?"  Yomi answered.

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"Yes. Besides, if those things are shut, who are we to open them?"

[Dracos]

"Well, for one...  someone is using them certainly.  They're not inert.  They are, in a way...weapons for good or for ill.  The use of one could restore and heal the land around.  Or it could tear it to shreds, dragging it down into the depths."

[Shukuen]

"Hold on, did that old man ever mention if he had a starstone?" Leets asked Jan.

[Olvelsper]

"Uh. Not that I recall. Why do you ask?"
