Okay, but let's do it quickly and in silence. And if you see anything, run back here.

[sleeplessknight]

Oh. In that case, you should wait here. I can do it faster.

[bluerosestyle]

You can pick them fast if you want, but I should go with you. I need to be the one who carries them back here. I'm already a criminal so that won't set off any alarms... If you leave the garden with them, you'll be identified as a thief.

[sleeplessknight]

... Alright, then just stay here by the entrance, you can carry them back into the cave.

[bluerosestyle]

Okay.

[sleeplessknight]

[time to activate quick as a wink again to zip into the garden and quickly pick a bunch of roses to bring back to him]

[bluerosestyle]

[Takes them, and then takes one step back inside the cave!]

Whew...

[Looking for something between the petals of each rose-- and handing it to Yuuki.]

Be careful with these, they get crushed very easily.

Item: 5 Sacred Power Fruit

[sleeplessknight]

What is it...?

[bluerosestyle]

It's for spatial resources. You can use Sacred Arts without affecting your surroundings by spending these.

[sleeplessknight]

Oooohhh.

[bluerosestyle]

...That's the only place I've ever seen roses. They were so rare and valuable that the church hoarded them all.

[sleeplessknight]

Should we get more?

[bluerosestyle]

It might be dangerous. That garden is closely guarded. If we don't have to go back there, I'd prefer to avoid it.

[sleeplessknight]

Mm... okay. Then we try a different tunnel.

[time to backtrack back to the giant dragon skeleton]

[bluerosestyle]

[ONCE AGAIN, SHE DOESN'T FALL.

Eugeo follows in Double Take mode and silent awe.]

[sleeplessknight]

Any preference for our next tunnel?

[bluerosestyle]

[chuckles]

I feel like we'll do better if you're the one who chooses.

[sleeplessknight]

Then straight ahead!

[points]

[bluerosestyle]

Understood!

[You'll have to be careful with every step you take, because this tunnel is so cold it's not just ice-- there is even frost on the floor. It’s also completely dark. And long. Predictably.

Please roll your balance check!]

[sleeplessknight]

[I GOT A 2 AGAIN!!! shut up.

she's really feeling the cold, though... her teeth start chattering a bit]

L-L-Looks like we're o-on... the right path, h-huh.

[bluerosestyle]

. . .

[Oh no... Oh...

uh...

puts an arm around her and pulls her closer. It helps a little...]

Sorry... Is this any better?

[sleeplessknight]

[aaaaaaaaa????]

D-D-Don't worry! I c-could use that thing you taught me, b-but I'd rather save resources for s-something more important!

[bluerosestyle]

Yeah, that's what I thought too...

Let's check it out and if it's too much we can just leave, okay?

[sleeplessknight]

Y-Yeah!

[bluerosestyle]

[After a while, they see a very low light further ahead. Once they get there, they can see it’s actually coming from a door-- this door is glowing in a light blue color.

There is another door next to it. This one is frozen solid.]
