[ A BIG FAT OVERVIEW, PART 2]
[ to the room again ]
About keystones. They're definitely physically present in the caves-- objects that radiate a Judge's power. We can sense them if we're close to one, but be careful handling them-- they can exert influence on those who come in direct or indirect contact. How strong it is may reflect how strong the Judge in question is.
Current likely places to look into are the abandoned city-- there's a lot of ruins there, including temples and shrines--- and the Arena itself. The latter is something anyone trying for would have to be absolutely careful about looking into undetected, as that's where security would be the tightest. Personally I think highest priorities ought to be finding King's keystone.
When you do manage to find a keystone, it's possible to keep it secure within our dorms, and objects made from the stone of our dorms-- it's always had a special property of being impenetrable to Judge scrutiny. Talk to Edward on Delphinus if you need help making a sealing box.
We've got some members of Ophiuchus on our side, too. Currently three from Caduceus-- River, Thorn and Orange. Parrot from Uraeus. All four of them have Messenger's touch on them to protect them from being directly controlled by King-- it's important for all of us to never use their real names. If anyone else has friends or people they know on Ophiuchus they know they can trust, that they wanna explore possibilities on... go talk to Messenger at Delphinus.
There's also two more that've defected altogether-- Tack and Pecha. You might remember we had that search of our dorms some time ago. They're currently in hiding in different places. King and Ophiuchus're after them.
Above all, with only three weeks at a minimum-- we need to move fast, and we need to move carefully, all of us. Even though we're working on a limited timeframe, there's been mysterious voices heard by people from Canis, Vulpecula and Lynx, warning them about the possibility of teams close to them being in danger of discovery and worse.
