[h3][i]??? — Mosslit Cavern[/i][/h3][/center]

No tripwires. No pressure plates. Noooooo problem~! Jase's blade had made light enough work of opening the chest proper, which seemed to not be trapped despite her and the man opening it standing there in front of it at the time. All in all, it was not a bad call to be safe....but yeah it had been a bit too much in this instance. Probably. However, what was inside of the chest was something that gave her gut instincts some sort of prodding. That much she knew. 

[quote]Upon further inspection, the box would appear to have a flute carved of a white-green stone of some sort and left covered in a soft fur pelt of some variety.

The nature of either object was still unknown, of course, but inspecting the interior of the box would make it clear that there was no sort of trick, magical or otherwise, lying in wait.[/quote]

The knight gingerly put the moss in her hand on the ground, set her sword and shield on the ground, and then gently used her hands to pick up the jade-looking flute in the chest and the soft fur pelt it was nestled inside of. She brought it closer to her shadowed face for inspection, curiously trying to look the item over. It was in a old cavern room, in an old chest, and in some sort of good shape while having been wrapped in a pelt. A religious item, perhaps? Or maybe one of a set of macguffins to cause the end of the world. Either way, she was going to keep the thing close as a 'just in case' in the same way odd items picked up early in some JRPG might end up useful later. Or such was her philosophy about the matter. 

Better safe and hoarding than sorry. Or was that the sort of mindset leading to becoming a dragon? Eh, either way~!

[color=9370DB]"This screams of 'macguffin to end or save the world', or at least something thought well enough of to hide all the way back here."[/color]

The slime girl knight would then attempt to open her status, or inventory, or something of the sort. See if there were options to 'put item in inventory' or something, if she could, to magic it out of her hands and into some safe storage spot. It wasn't too farfetched to attempt, right? Plus even if it didn't work, maybe-....well, she'd have to check her info and see if it could be hidden away inside of her or something? Maybe. But also eww. Still, if she was a slime, then couldn't slimes hold something inside of their body for safekeeping perhaps? Eh? Or not? At least in such case she could keep the flute itself safe, and the fur could be a nice cape for now to boot. 

Barring the prior two ideas not working in sucession, if it came too that, Nyana woould at least try to tuck away the bundle on her person for safekeeping or something. Then she'd be able to pick up her sword and shield again if nothing else. Though it did remind her of playing flute in high school....hmm. Anywhosies, that was that unless something happend otherwise~

[color=9370DB]"Alright, the mystery item is at least in our possession. If anyone else wants to grab that moss I put down, we can start trying to find another path to get us out of here. Well, do all of that carefully unless we want to get ganked or stuck in a pit trap or something at the start here. 

I'll walk at the front too regardless, though, since I've got some decent starting defenses it seems."[/color]

Her tone generally seemed to go into what she'd call 'gamer mode', though to her it felt more natural than the panic of not long ago. Not that said panic was wholly gone or something, but hey having something to focus on and using familiar terms and things would certainly be preferrable to nothing, right? Right! Like totally! All she needed right now was a cold drink, her favorite tank and shorts on, and her streaming setup for a good gaming session! Well, one that was pretty IRL for her now and kinda' serious though....yeah. Yeah that was going to be a thing to need to eventually get adjusted to for sure. That on top of the new body and all.
