[ that's the secret, cap... she's always uncomfortable. though lately, she hasn't been feeling that - which in term is making her uncomfortable anyway? does that make sense?? ]

Yeah, I will. Just... one step at a time. But at the same time, I also learned that it's okay to take my time in these things.

[ it's okay if she hasn't figured everything yet. who even has, anyway? probably not elysium, that's for sure. he's as flighty as a bird, while she's lost at sea as ever. there's something poetic about it.

after a couple more treks, ishmael makes out a ruined building covered in vines and other wreckage. she then runs off, stopping right in front of a sign that is too dilapidated to even make out the words. ]

You think this is it?

[ Time. Elysium's expression softens perceptibly at the mention of it. ]

It really is. Still, I hope to continue receiving updates on your journey. Perhaps not for every step of the way, [ it's fine that it isn't his role to play, a tease lining the edge of it, ] but whenever you have a moment or two. Just from one adventurer to another.

[ With a casual wink, he turns his attention to the signage—from his knowledge of it, he knows perfectly well where they are and what it is. But, again, that's ruining the fun, isn't it? ]

Only one way to find out, right? If we end up finding some bones or the remnants of glass tanks, we'll know for sure. Until then, we can keep our minds and spirits free——not every adventurer had the luxury of the path paved for them, after all.

[ truly the most productive of all supply runs…… tho, this is probably a good endpoint as they mill about until they remember (or acknowledge) what it is they set out for to begin with. ]
