Where are we? thought Arendwage. I'm not sure, Phiziage responded. Great. Arendwage grumped. Just what we need. You know, it's almost a theme of yours to get lost in the past! Phiziage remained silent. They walked through the village they had entered in. It seemed to be abandoned, but they house they had arrived in seemed to be lived in lately. Phiziage sighed at the lack of technology, I can't believe it was like this in the Old Times. Well, we kinda had to advance, what with the cataclysm and all, Arendwage responded. They found a note. It read, "Narret, we left for the old structure to find you. If we're not back by the time you get back, head back for us. ~Starbloom." Arendwage gasped. Phiziage, she thought, I think we found the elemental's dwelling!
Andy was reading a rather large book titled "Mystical objects found in the caves:A complete compendium of strange crystals, interesting critters, and man-eating, psycho shapeshifters of death." by an anonymous author. The title was a bit off putting at first until Andy found out the three were in different regions. There were several old, unraveling bookmarks tucked in and a monocle hanging out. It didn't seem to do much of anything. There was, luckily, a crystal/gem identification sheet. She identified the gem as an Elder Gem and was reading about it's many uses when the new boy walked in. She quickly shut the book abd attempted to hide it. "Hello, welcome to the Ragnarok Society Library. Can I help you find something?" she asked. She was, after all, the librarian. "Oh! Uh, do you have any mushroom identification books? Preferably one I can get to very quickly and find out what it is and how much it's going to kill me? Also, where is your medical building?" Andy stared at him, "Did you seriously-" "Look, could we do this very quickly please? I'm kinda in a hurry, life-or-death situation, you know." She sighed. "The only mushrooms that grow this deep are the Spotted Torturer and the Green Dreamer. So, was it white with brown stripes or brown with white stripes?" "Um, it was blue. And glowy. And sorta humming." Her eyes widened. "We better get you to the medical ward."
They walked down the carpeted corridor in complete silence. There were tapestries hung on the walls and torches lighting their way. "So, um, who are you?" Wolfie asked. The man answered, "I am Pickle." He continued walking. He was obviously trying to disclose as little as possible. "Well, what do you do, Mr. Pickle?" Pickle flinched. "Please, just Pickle. And I lead the Rangnarok Society." Wolfie was getting agitatated. Starbloom quickly asked, "And what is the Ragnarok Society?" "The Ragnarok Society writes and restores history." "I see. How big is this society?" "We make up a total of over a thousand men, women, and children." "Well, where do you all live?" "We live in a village in a cave." By this trickle approach, Starbloom was able to find out that Pickle was one of many leaders, that the founder's name had been lost to history,and a few other miscellaneous facts. During this time, Wolfie and Totoro found out how many games actually worked while walking through a repetitive hallway(answer=0). At this point, they came to a giant, oaken door with tons of locks keeping it shut.. Pickle pushed keys in all the locks, which took several minutes, and then turned the knob. "We try so lockpicks will simply give up at the sight of so many locks." He explained. He opened the door wide, and Totoro, Starbloom, and Wolfie all became strucken with the sight. What Pickle had called a village seemed a sprawling metropolis to them. Tall stone towers rose up, some reaching the roof, and deep tunnels led far into the earth. A giant building was in the middle, and on the front of the roof was carved the same hourglass with the jaggedy line through it. A giant library stood next to it, with what appeared to be some wierd cross between a periscope and a telescope poking out and into the ceiling. There was what appeared to be a medical ward near them, and a crew of people took someone in on a stretcher that seemed familiar to Starbloom. "Is that... Narret?!?!"
