You walk into a very large room. In the center is a huge column that seems to reach up endlessly. In front of the column is what appears to be a statue of a Pheonix and a Wyvern. Set into the statue is a Crystal Shard. To the right is a ramp that spirals up the column, apparently leading straight to the top. Please suggest an action.

examine the statue but DO NOT touch it. shit like that ALWAYS goes off if touched.

Holy shit, that's the original orb you're wearing.

This can't be a coincidence. Something's going on here.

>>402201
The crystal may or may not give you magic powers if you touch it. I would advise against touching it right now though, something this exposed is probably trapped.

The statue, and everything in this room, appears to be carved roughly out of metal. The surfaces aren't nearly as smooth as they were on the outside. The statue has a small plaque on it. It says Hope and Despair, Reconciled.
>>402211
I don't think I could touch the crystal if I wanted to. It's really high up, orb, and I'm not very good at climbing... But I agree. It's probably trapped.

Hope hands back the Letter, and flies up out of sight, all the way to the top.

No. 404168 ID: 7d7f79

Well you just crossed the desert to get here, is there any good reason to not keep going upward? If not just keep going.

One of the tricks of really huge architecture like this is that it's supposed to freak you out, humble and otherwise intimidate you to the point that whoever lives here finds you an easy mark to manipulate. Don't fall for the con, stride up there with impatience at all the unnecessarily wasted space and spectacle.

Right, got it. Stay confident. Right.

You reach the top of the ramp. You feel like you've climbed maybe halfway up the spire. The ramp curves in towards a room, which you enter. Inside is a large circular room, bare of all but a large mirror, cracked. Attatched to the mirror is a small machine, connected to an orange crystal like the one you saw at the bottom. You can hear voices through the mirror.

Walk to the side of the mirror without the crystal engine, see if there is anything behind it.
I've watched too many old twilight zone episodes to trust non-euclidean portals.

Hello?
My cautious greeting goes unnoticed. The two voices continue to bicker. I step through the mirror to see if I can't get their attention.

>I -know- I said Noctus would have his job settled by now. I -KNOW- I haven't heard back from him in years.
>[i]You also said that Abyssa could be trusted to get her shit in gear. I bet you she's just dicking around at the bottom of the ocean on the OTHER SIDE OF THE PLANET. And I don't even WANT to know what Sariel is doing. Honestly Ragi, I fear we'll never get this done...

>Don't worry, Hope. I trust that everything will fall into place at it's appointed time. I know for a fact that Arcuri has her job done. And the last cog in this machine should be arriving soon.

that crystal WAS magic. which is why it was basically immune to her. because you can't use magic to change magic itself.

Eh, there are worse traits to be had in a warrior.
About traits she has, is it normal for her to have an interaction with us involving her ranting about IMPERFECTION while floating and shooting fire? If that starts happening with everyone who holds us it could get a bit inconvenient.
