Gyatso: glaring H-h-hurry, will you? That sc-scripture is our k-k-key.
They were already lost in the snow. I am going to retrieve them.
W-wait! Be c-careful! Don't l-lose it, alright? It's r-really important for my r-research!
G-g-ghostly tales, you say? Y-y-you mean spirits and g-g-ghasts, don't you?
Maybe? But that's what they call themselves.
Well, whatever they're called, it sounds like a bunch of hooey to me!
And yet people still believe in them.
H-how could anyone believe in such nonsensical beings? It's just a p-p-pathetic excuse for people to feel scared and g-g-gullible!
I dunno, Gyatso. They seem pretty scary to me.
S-scary? They're just a bunch of silly superstitions, that's all!
I come back holding the books
W-wait! What did y-y-you find out there? Did you encounter any of those ghostly tales?
No, just some old boots. Figured they belonged to a traveler or something.
Traveler, huh? Well, I guess they c-c-could have been one of those ancient b-believers in those ghostly tales... or maybe just some poor s-s-soul who got lost in the snow.
Yeah, maybe. Anyways, here's the books. You said they were important.
snatches the books from SkyHighScholar's hands Th-th-thank you. Now, let's get back to the t-t-temple and see if we can find any more clues about these s-s-spiritual beings.
Alright, Gyatso. Lead the way.
As Gyatso and SkyHighScholar continue their research, they uncover ancient texts that reveal the truth behind the ghostly tales.
Look at this, Gyatso. It says these ghostly beings are actual spirits.
Y-y-you mean, they're not just made-up s-stories? They're actual, honest-to-goodness spirits?!
Seems so. And they've got powers, too.
P-p-powers?! Like what? Can they...can they do m-magic? Possess people or summon monsters or s-s-something?
Who knows? It doesn't say much about that.
W-well, we have to find out! We need to go to an expert, someone who knows more about these spirits than we do.
Good idea, Gyatso. But who are we going to talk to?
W-well, there's an old p-p-professor in the nearby city who's supposed to be an expert on all things s-s-supernatural...
Sounds like a plan, Gyatso. Let's head to the city then.
Y-y-you know, people s-say I'm a bit of a m-m�user after that l-lightning incident...h-heh, maybe they're r-right?
What? You think you might be magical or something?
N-no, of course not! I just mean... ever since that l-lightning strike, I've had this sort of... connection to the s-s-supernatural.
Interesting. Do you think it's connected to your transformation?
W-well, some people think that the supernatural has something to do with my c-change... but I d-don't believe it, personally.
figuring out these ghosts.
O-oh, I sure hope so... I'd love to be able to help people understand and protect themselves from these s-spirits.
Well, I hope so too, Gyatso. Let's go to that professor and see what he thinks.
L-let's go! I'm ready to uncover the t-truth about these spirits and put an end to any harm they may cause!
we meet the professor and he goes over the books
So, Professor, w-w-what do you think about these s-s-spirits? Are they really as powerful as these books suggest?
the professor looks at us both These spirits are very real, Gyatso. And they're dangerous.
D-dangerous?! So we really need to be c-careful around them?
Yes, Gyatso. We need to tread lightly. They can manipulate the elements, summon creatures, and even bend time and space.
B-bend time and space?! You're kidding me, right?!
No, I'm not, Gyatso. It's all in these texts.
Oh my goodness! This is so i-i-interesting! Can you show me more about these t-t-time and space abilities?
