“[color=goldenrod]No… I suppose I wasn’t,[/color]” Adam muttered, looking at the angelic statue with wide eyes. He hadn’t actually thought there was a mystic puzzle to be solved, it had been bitter sarcasm. Now, with the evidence of a real purpose to the statues, he once again found himself wondering just what sort of mess they had all fallen into. He nodded absent mindedly as Valair suggested they look for more hints, still wondering how the statues needed to be moved. [i][color=goldenrod]Maybe we need to switch their positions around? Maybe the wall will actually tell us where they need to go?[/color][/i] His musing ended as Rena came to stand next to him.

“[color=goldenrod]Uh, yeah, it’s also the only woman out of the lot,[/color]” he said, but she seemed distracted by something. Adam watched with curiosity as she reached out and touched the statue, then reeled back, confused. His brow furrowed with worry as she moved to the next statue and the statue after that, touching each of them. She was either on the verge of a realization, or was losing her wits, and he hoped for the former. When she found herself at the final statue, next to him, she stopped and told them what she had discovered.

“[color=goldenrod]You mean like… periodic table elements? Copper and gold and such?[/color]” he asked. It sounded far-fetched, and he’d have been more comfortable if she sounded confident in her knowledge, but he didn’t see anything to be gained by knowing what they were made of. [i][color=goldenrod]Then again, why make six statues out of six elements unless there was a reason?[/color][/i] Scratching his chin, he looked down, deep in thought, and his eye caught something where the silver statue had been standing. He knelt in front of the statue, looking closely. “[color=goldenrod]Hey, there’s a loose tile… thing… under this statue, I can’t read what it’s marked with though, like the plaques on the statues,[/color]” standing back up, Adam moved to the horned statue that Rena was by and easily pushed it out of the way, revealing a similar tile set in the ground.

“[color=goldenrod]Well, I guess we’re making some sort of progress. What did you find over on the wall, Valair?[/color]” He asked, seeing this as actually being a puzzle for the first time.
