FINAL INVESTIGATION

[It is time.

The chill which had come from the now-open, unnumbered room has now begun to seep into the rest of the Depths. It seems to call to the Titled, beckoning them to come forward and to face whatever is now beyond that door.

Fie and Rubedo were right - that room was, indeed, the exit to the Depths. And at the end of the staircase is a door, which the Skeleton Key can very easily open. A few seconds later, the door at the top of the stairs opens.

And the city within the cave below is revealed to them, as they stand on a platform high above the ground.



The ruin still looks as new as it did the day it was built. The air here is cold mountain air, though the only light seems to come from one massive building carved into the very rock of the cave. There is nothing coming from the mouth of the cave save for snow.

On the door they just came through is a single parchment of paper which reads "LEINALZIND OUTER DISTRICT." Each building, they will find, is labelled similarly. Which means there is only one conclusion.

Welcome to the city of Leinalzind, Titled. And good luck, teams.

You will need it.]

[ Keeping an eye on the caged dogs, he finally ventured closer and was able to get a closer look at the body. The guy didn't seem to hold any actual physical injuries, but it was the note that got his attention.

Carefully he knelt down to pick up the note so he could read it, expression soon turning a bit unreadable. It was clear what had happened here but there were still some terms he was unfamiliar with. ]

Unmaking? What could he even mean by that?

[ Killua stood up, folding the note so he could take it with him; only because it seemed like it could be a piece of the puzzle they may need later. If only because of the names written within the note itself, since they were probably of importance.

Probably tied into Alexis or something along those lines. Well maybe not them specifically but their world. ]

Guess I can't blame him if it got too much...

[ Well. With this done, he's going to see if there's anything left to note about this place as he didn't want to miss a thing. ]

[Still a bit left to go! But there is two pieces of paper that could be interesting...]

[lightnen]

[ Putting that note into his pocket, Killua spotted the two pieces of paper nearby and walked over to inspect them. Just what made them stand out? ]

[strangerpeople]

[The first one happens to be this while the second looks like a pamphlet titled 'How to Deal with Dwemer'.

The only thing it says is basically says they are Dwemer, remember they have technology, so pretend to understand their babbling, but remember you're still superior to them. All for the greater good. But something good to take notice.]

[ An experiment?! Manipulating souls?! That was definitely unnerving all on its own, and that list had a bunch of important looking names on it.

Just what the hell was going on?!

Going to take that first one with him. Kind of glad he had somewhat deep pockets in his shorts and that this was all just paper. The pamphlet is odd all on its own but he can't ignore it, mainly due to that part where it said "all for the greater good" but what exactly was that? ]

Tch...There better be answers to all of this stupid mess. It doesn't all make sense..

[ Going to sigh and turn his attention back to the room. There was so much to it, but if there was anything else to find, he would do it before leaving. ]

[Just one more item he will find: a sealed vial labeled 'torpor' on the bottom. It might be best to bring it with you.

And with that, the room is clear! Good job!]
