Discovery in the Forest

Tell [123227|Will Kanches] what [123224|Chester] found out.

([123224|Chester] timidly looks about him while talking.)

Let's get straight to the point! When Captain Will forgot about me in [ZONE_VEILED_BRIM|The Haze], I found a few ruined rune mechanisms in the forest. There's an inscribed stone next to each of these rune mechanisms.

The inscriptions talk of a young girl. It states that this young girl called <CY>Tashayowa</CY> had wings, and loved to fly through the starry sky at night. Kidd gave her a pendant, which seems to have been called the Star Key. When she left, Kidd had such feelings of longing for her that he had a figurehead made of her likeness for the Purgatory. Yes, that's right. We're talking about that giant statue in [ZONE_VEILED_BRIM|The Haze].

I'll have to invest some more time into solving the link between the inscriptions and the mechanism. But I can't wait any longer, I have to get away from here, and I want you to come with me.

(You try to persuade [123224|Chester] to stay and study the mechanisms in more detail. You tell him that he would earn himself a great reputation and adoration if he managed to solve the riddle.)

Adoration? That doesn't sound bad. Very well. Honorable Mate, help me to clear a few more of these beasts out of the way, and maybe I can be persuaded to stay. You wouldn't break your promise, like Captain Will, and not return, would you?

Mechanism... statue... pendant... hmm... actually, that gives me an idea.

That scaredy-cat [123254|Chester] didn't come back with you? Has something perhaps happened to him? He's not scared himself to death, has he?
