[ she's up in the archives, looking down on the rest of equestria. ]

Hello, Shadowheart. Did you come for the view? It's very nice.

[sacredpath]

What exactly sort of archives are these meant to be?

[the view is nice, but it doesn't make for much of a library.]

[hotfixer]

I'm... not sure. There isn't much documentation for an archive, is there? But I haven't figured out how else they might be recording information. The murals on the walls don't seem to be enough.

[sacredpath]

Maybe it's already been looted? The murals don't seem to convey much information, no.

[hotfixer]

That is possible. Perhaps in the time this island has been uninhabited, something was taken away from it.

But it is kind of fun to guess. Me and Taair played this game with the ruins in Italy. He tried to deduce their origins without looking them up first.

[sacredpath]

[Well, that certainly seems a fitting game for Taair. Nerd ass.]

I am going to guess some sort of temple, intended for the darkest of dark rituals.

[hotfixer]

Why dark rituals? Maybe they were fun rituals.

[sacredpath]

[looks at a dog portrait.]

Dark rituals.

[hotfixer]

Oh no, dark dog rituals?

[sacredpath]

I think they're trying to summon them.

[hotfixer]

That's not dark at all!

[sacredpath]

You're assuming these aren't dark entities themselves.

[hotfixer]

I suppose there are dark entities in Heaven, recently... At least one...

[sacredpath]

You mean Brimstone, of course.

[okay, okay, subject change.]

I have heard we feel we are closing in on them. What's your sense?

[hotfixer]

No I—oh. Yes. Brimstone.

[ she's so good at this. ]

Exactly that. They are rapidly running out of places to run. The more time passes, the more of Heaven we have been able to lock them out of.

[sacredpath]

If we do find them, though... given they have had the ability to do this to us, is it safe to approach them?

[hotfixer]

Once we have them isolated properly we will be able to restrict their powers much more. It's always about getting to the source of a problem to cut off its reach.

[sacredpath]

Sort of how ours aren't working...?

[hotfixer]

Similar to that.

It might be a little different. They won't get a chao or anything.

[sacredpath]

I would be terrified to see what their chao was like.

[hotfixer]

They're all cute enough that it's hard to go wrong... But me too.
