Test 1.

[azumods]

VALOR Your arrival at Lake Valor is met with no fanfare at all, nor are there any obstructions; it seems that Team Galactic has moved on from here, the area devoid of activity and strangely-dressed people for the time being. The area is also largely devoid of water. There's some, in the area that presumably was the lake once; however, it can hardly be called a proper lake now. There's a massive crater in the middle of the clearing that that now-unobstructed path through the woods takes you to; it's refilled some since whatever incident caused it, but the water is only about knee-high at the deepest and generally incapable of impeding you much if you should choose to wade into it. Whatever you choose to do, there's a massive, raised area in the middle of what's left of the lake, a rock formation of some sort; it's capable of being scaled with reasonably little difficulty. An opening is visible in the rock face, large and gaping, leading inwards and downwards into a cavern system of some sort. Your exploration starts now; time to see if there really is nothing worth reporting in the area.

[—STONES, YOU SAY. ARE THEY SHINY.]

[azumods]

[They aren't shiny in and of themselves, but they look like they might have etchings on them! Either that or they're just cracked in interesting ways. The etchings (or the cracks, depending) do seem to be giving off a faint glow, however...]

[hyruglyphics]

[ . . . !

Time to take some photos of them, then, but she'll pick up one - do these look like they might fit together... into some bigger thing? ]

[semistableman]

[Oh, that's weird.

He's going to be taking a closer look with Zelda.]

[eudaimonikos]

[....huh.

Not gonna stop him from winging it at anything that comes out of the shadows, but Michael turns his rock over to inspect it. Does it look like any recognizable pattern?]

[heritrix]

[Damn, here she was hoping for a jewel score. Not that she could even use them if they were... Rin's about to huff and turn away, but oh. That glowing catches her eye.]

That's interesting... I think these are glowing?

[Kneeling, if the stones aren't too big she'll attempt to pick one up. Is there a design, or is it just cracks?]

[anythingforyou]

Glowing?

[...Yeah, Camilla's actually going to go and take a look at that herself. What the hell?]

These must be something special, then. Perhaps imbued with the deities power?

[heritrix]

[WELL GIVEN WHAT'S GOING ON OVER HERE, PICKING IT UP MAY HAVE BEEN A MISTAKE, ASDFGHJKL.]

Definitely some kind of power!

[WHAT IF SHE JUST GENTLY PUTS IT BACK]
