Roderick Thorn: Gently hands over a gleaming, ancient artifact D-d-do you know what this i-i-is?
Uhhh yes.. That is one of the sacred bones of Thalisse.
H-how did you get y-your hands on this artifact?
This was handed down to me from my family. It is one of the original bones that those who followed Queen Marika broke Thalisse off from the earth.
I see... so you're familiar with the history of this world?
Well.. Not really. Most people are usually oblivious to what happened. This is why I wanted to create an altar to Ynaria so that people could remember this sacred land and maybe learn something new.
It sounds like you're quite the historian yourself. Perhaps you could help me learn more about this world's past?
You have quite the collection of artifacts yourself. Perhaps you wouldn't mind showing me? I've always been fascinated by the history of this world, and I'm sure there's plenty you could teach me about it.
Yeah sure! I take out the journal that I am researching from and show him.
Eyes widen in surprise as he sees the journal W-what is this?! It's...it's incredible! How did you come across such a rare and valuable resource?
Well.. I heard that before the collapse some researchers were trying to decipher what was written in these texts. During the collapse they lost many of their notes but they had a couple of journals written down before hand.. They were able to salvage a few journals but one journal was lost during the collapse.. This was written by a woman named Kaorin Zann. She was able to decipher many of the previously known sacred texts but this journal is the first to have the full translation of one of the sacred songs to Ynaria.
Incredible... flips through the pages, eyes wide with fascination You have no idea how much this means to me.
closes the journal and looks at Robinson with a mischievous grin I have an idea. Why don't we embark on a quest together?
Yes! A quest to uncover more secrets about this world. Think about it - we could travel to forgotten ruins, meet mysterious figures, and maybe even stumble upon ancient artifacts hidden away for centuries.
grins eagerly Well, what do you say? Are you up for an adventure?
Excellent! We'll set off at dawn. We should probably gather our supplies and prepare for the journey ahead. starts rummaging through his backpack
