Then, I'll tell you. From start to finish, what we found when we went into that tower.

[ Now that he's let her know a piece, that is enough of a jumping point to start with. But, he places down his food as he begins to launch into an explanation. ]

First of all, it seemed all of that cursed energy had distorted the appearance of the place inside. You wouldn't even be able to recognize how it'll normally look, what with there being tendrils and whatever kind of darkness crap here or there. We even had to jump into a hole to get anywhere.

Navigating by sight was a nightmare as we went further in, the darkness all but blotting out most light unless you had a flashlight or something to light our way. It smelled disgusting, and there was even mold everywhere. Then, we walked into circles, though at one point this curse moved what Anna was used as markers into a damned even pile. Which were coins—then, thanks to Cloud we managed to make some headway where we saw all this crap...a lot of rot everywhere you'd look.

Then there were more glowing, crimson roots. Worst of all were the people, who were working in the building, we found contained and trapped inside of that rot. They were freed by the end of it, but I didn't envy them at all.

Those haniwa puppets were lying on the floor in front of those people. We had to fight them when they suddenly seemed to come to life, being used as soldiers to attack us. They knew how to fire guns well enough; of course, we made our way out of there and managed to make our way to the center of the curse. The sight of which was nothing like I'd ever seen before...

[ And here, Felix describes that too in this block of text for my sanity. They made their way to the roots, arriving straight at the containment center, which seemed to contain some kind of incredibly large cylinder-shaped structure smack dab in the middle of a gargantuan-sized room. There were some kind of hexagrams visible at eight points of the structure's outerside, which Felix understood little regarding their meaning. But, it is evident it had something to do with sealing.

At the time, one of those marks had been decimated, red roots converging in like a spider's web, but mostly concentrated in the center of said chamber. Either way, the structure was evidently the center of said curse, unleashed, but it was difficult to look at it directly despite the fact it was a column of darkness. Blinding, and even breathing was difficult. ]


...I suspect that the damage was only possible with all of those haniwa stored in the building. Whatever the case, this thing didn't last when we all opened the way for Cloud to take it out with a special dagger made for dealing with such a thing.

At the end, we did see something else before the light of the blade tore through that darkness...and there was some kind of human shaped thing in the middle of it all. Spouting nonsense about how "They cannot save you." before it pissed right off and then everything reverted to normal.

There. Now you know.

[ If she has anymore questions or thoughts...well, there's certainly time for that as well. He doesn't seem like he's going to immediately leave especially when it is a lot. But he didn't shy away from delivering the full picture. ]
