Yes, the Bloody Bones. They were quite intent on killing us all... they were quite skilled monster hunters. Their monster-hunting weapons were quite impressive, especially for Ryslig standards.

[Tsukikage absent-mindedly rubs one of his legs. He remembers being tortured by those guys. Not fun.]

[justbeingknife]

But they're gone now. Like the poachers, right?

[ There were so many things he knew only a smidgen about, having not been there himself. ]

Was it that dust-up in Vandare?

[intercalaryninja]

Yes... that sounds about right. I may be mistaken though. If it's not in that journal, I'll cross reference that with my diary. It was just a long time ago. I only arrived at the tail end of that nonsense.

[justbeingknife]

[ He sighed. ]

I've always wondered about it. I know Vandare's split down the middle now, and that they probably had some hand in it. But people seem pretty reluctant to talk about what happened -- maybe for good reason.

[ Whatever it had been, clearly the divisions still remained. ]

[intercalaryninja]

I'll look into it for you, if it helps.

For now, there's a lot to work through. Feel free to borrow all the books, if you like. I trust you with these. Maybe you can find something I've missed.

[justbeingknife]

[ Majima nodded. ]

Thanks... there's somethin' else I've been meaning to bring up, too, though. Remember a year or two ago, back when we first got sent to Felfri?

[intercalaryninja]

Yes, I remember that. That was... strange. This was the instance where Reira-dono set up going to that world, yes? Or was it the other time?

[He forgets. Honestly, things have been hectic and he hasn't thought about Felfri in a good, long while.]

[justbeingknife]

It was the time Marco set up that portal. I was one of the monsters that went through it, and I do believe he's been looking for an alternate power source for his contraption ever since.

So long story short, I went looking for a lead.

[intercalaryninja]

Ah. Yes. That's right. I do remember that.

[It's hard to keep track of the timeline. He really needed a proper manual for all this.]

What did you find?

[justbeingknife]

An old structure. Pretty much forgotten, of course, but from the pieces of old tales I've been able to put together, it's supposed to hold some big secret.

Specifically, they talk about a vessel that holds 'drops of the sun'. I believe this thing's a kind of magical battery -- maybe even the kind that could help speed along work on that portal machine.

[intercalaryninja]

Drops of the sun... Sounds vague enough to either be a solar battery or a Sun god relic. How interesting.

If it has that much power, how was it forgotten? Did your tales say who made or owned it?

[justbeingknife]

[ He sighed. ]

It's all pretty fragmentary. Some old family used to be in charge of it and its keep... long gone now, as far as I've been able to research.

Granted, solar batteries in my time weren't exactly high-powered. But there's gotta be some reason they built this place to store the thing, right?

[intercalaryninja]

They're not that high-powered either in my time either. But it sounds like something impressive, yes.

If you give me the name of the family, I'll keep an eye out for it in the midst of my own research.

[justbeingknife]

The Iversens. Strange clan, or at least that's what I hear.

If this works out, I'd like to ask your help unearthin' this vessel. I'm pretty sure it'll be dangerous, since everythin' on this damn peninsula is.

Shall we wrap up since the actual event is soon? XD

[intercalaryninja]

I'll do what I can.
