  Luna: "Assistance? There's nothin' you could offer me."

  Coco: "Well, there's something about you that is unusual."

  Luna: "Pssht, wateva. I'd rather be different, aye."

  Destiny: "Yeup!"

  Coco: "Well, you have different flows of Astragons in you."

  Luna: "Aye?"

  Coco: *She looked at Destiny who hovered at Luna's head level.* "You're a Scoldrant User and something else."

  Luna: "I can use them lightning arrows." *She pretended to shoot Coco in the head, causing her to smile.*

  Coco: *She shook her head.* "I can easily feel the Astragons in you, telling me you're an Elementalist."

  Luna: "Elementalist... I don't care wat I am, I just know the kool shit I can do."

  Destiny: "Yeup."

  Luna: "We're here waitin' for someone. Just lemme explore your village-"

  Coco: "You are a miracle." *Her tone sounded different.*

  Luna: "Huh?"

  Coco: "It's not unheard of people being different races and benefiting from their abilities, but it is unheard of, to have two major bloodlines and being able to use both."

  Luna: "Bloodlines? Aha, nah-" *She laughed at Coco.* "I actually don't-"

  Coco: "Come from this Reality Marble?"

  Luna: "Nah, from this world." *She leant to one side.*

  Coco: *She smiled, as if she already knew that.* "Major or dominant bloodlines are Remenistal Users, Elementalists, Scoldrant Users and Fore Hunters."

  Luna: "Fore Hunters? What are they?"

  Coco: "They are said to be extinct now. But their abilities were a mixture between a Remenistal User and a Scoldrant User."

  Luna: "Just spit out it, aye."

  Coco: "They can Soul Link to elements, but that's not what I'm trying to express. If a Scoldrant User were to go against their own tribal ways and fell for a Fore Hunter, the offspring would either be one of the two classes."

  Luna: *She tilted her head back, as if she didn't care.* "Just effin' get on with it, aye."

  Destiny: "Yeup." *She meowed in agreement while she flew in circles around Luna's head.*

  Coco: "You on the other hand.. You have two major bloodlines."

  Luna: "It ain't bloodlines. My parents come from a Rostickal-less world, aye."

  Coco: "Regardless.." *She took several steps forward.* "You just haven't awoken the other side of you."

  Luna: "You mean a Scoldrant User?"

  Coco: *She adjusted her cone-shaped hat.* "My mistake, you're a triple threat."

  Luna: "Threat?"

  Coco: *She listened to the Scoldrants.* "You... Your Neurons are unimaginably beautiful."

  Luna: "Da fuck."

  Destiny: "Huesst." *She hissed in agreement.*

  Coco: *She shook her head, as if her intentions were mistaken.* "I have the rare ability of actually seeing one's life Neurons."

  Luna: "Kool." *She sighed and started to tap her foot, trying to overcome her growing impatience.*

  Coco: "If it's acceptable, I would like to take you to my very good friend, Taco."

  Luna: "Ya goin' to take me to fuckin' tacobell? You seriously got probs, aye."

  Coco: *She looked confused, as if she didn't understand what Luna was saying.* "I don't understand your sudden hostility, but I'm trying to awaken your Remenistic history."

  Luna: "I'm over this. Let's go, Destiny-"

  Destiny: *She flew in front of Luna's face, causing her to look at herself from a mirror-like view.* "Yue, yeu."

  Luna: *She raised an eyebrow in confusion.* "Wat are ya sayin'?"

  Destiny: (We should let her speak. She wants to help you.)

  Luna: *She sighed in thought.* (I don't have Rostickal.)

  Destiny: (So what have you got to lose?)

  Luna: *She frowned and tilted her head away.* (Stop lookin' at me so closely.. I don't want to see myself, aye.)

  Destiny: "..."

  Coco: "Hello?"

  Luna: "Just take me to tacobell, aye."

  Coco: "Scrumptious!" *She clapped her hands and Luna suddenly found herself in an old tomb.*

  Luna: "Aye?" *She staggered forward and noticed streams of sand fall from the ceiling.*

  Destiny: (It's hard to breathe-...) "Yeu-" *She suddenly burst into silver liquid and spiralled into the glyph on the back of Luna's hand.*

  Luna: *She blinked several times, as her vision changed perspective.* "It looks all egypty in here."

  Coco: "Egypty?"

  Luna: "How did we get here?"

  Coco: "My hands?" *She clapped her hands, implying that's when she transported them both.*

  Luna: (Is this a dream? It was so sudden.) *She shook her head and bent down, rubbing her fingers through sand in the cracks of an old stone ground.* "Are we like, in a pyramid?"

  Coco: "We have to find the seal to your Remenistal side." *She started to inspect the area, noticing a stone door which was part of the wall open up.*

  Luna: "So... Is this a Reality Marble? Or one of them spacey thingys."

  Coco: *She walked past the door and noticed the area light up.* "We are descendants of the very first beings that could use Remenistal. Elementalists, Scoldrant Users, Fore Hunters, Diareamers, Astraseekers, Remenistal Users, Azure Burst Masters, all those classes came from us."

  Luna: "And ya point is?" *She followed Coco into the room and stopped, looking around with a dropping jaw.* "Everythin' is gold?" *She suddenly lost track of the conversation.*

  Coco: "Even the prophecy seer, the user of Aurorions, that position was once our own."

  Luna: "Ah ha." *She grunted in acknowledgement while admiring the glyphic patterns all over the walls, as if she wasn't really paying attention.*

  Coco: "You don't know where we are, do you?"

  Luna: "Nah." *She grunted.*

  Destiny: (This is a strange feeling, Luna.)

  Luna: *She slightly looked down, as if she was on the phone.* (What do you mean?)

  Destiny: (This doesn't feel like a Reality Marble or a Spacial Funnel. I don't even recognise the area instinctively.)

  Luna: (Wat's your point?)

  Destiny: (But I feel comfortable here.)

  Luna: (Well, that doesn't help me, does it? Aha.) *She smiled in thought.*

  Coco: "What do you feel?"

  Luna: "Nah, it doesn't-" *She paused, still sidetracked by the golden room.* "It feels weird."

  Coco: "I thought you liked that?"

  Luna: "Pssht-" *She placed a hand on her waist and leant to one side.* "It feels like stepping into your room after being on holiday."

  Coco: *She noticed Luna looking at her with her own eyes.* (She's already nearing the final evolution with her Scoldrant? She will be an amazing woman once she comes to her Remenistic and emotional maturity.)

  Luna: "... Happy?"

  Coco: "That is fine."

  Luna: "So-" *She spun around, causing her white hair to sway over her shoulder.* "Is this your version of tacobell? I'm actually gettin' hungry, aye."

  Coco: "We will have a feast while displaying our elemental splicing."

  Luna: "Kool, more shit I'm curious to know about."

  Coco: "I'm able to take you here, but I can't assist you until you come to terms."

  Luna: "Huh?"

  ?????: "Yoody yoody-" *A man that stood to the knees of an adult, waltzed into the large room.*

  Luna: "Yoody yoody? Wat the fuck?"

  Coco: "Welcome, Taco."

  Taco: *He adjusted a smaller sized cone-shaped hat.* "Taco's here!"

  Luna: "Taco? You're a hobbit!"

  Taco: "No huberts here. I'm Taco!"

  Luna: *She tried not to laugh.* "Fuck me."

  Destiny: (Give them a listen, Luna.) *Her thought-like meows echoed in Luna's head.*

  Luna: "Fine."

  Taco: "What is the yoody goody ya'll problem?"

  Coco: "Luna, Elementalist-"

  Taco: "Yoody! I love Elementalists! One built me a fire and another supplied us with water! It was a yoody go
ody adventure!"

  Luna: "Why are some people here fucked in the head?" *She grunted to herself.*

  Destiny: (Luna!)

  Coco: "She's also a Scoldrant User."

  Taco: "Yoo-dy!" *He blocked his nose and looked away.* "They usually smell."

  Coco: "And a Remenistal User."

  Taco: *He looked surprised.* "What the yoody did you say?"

  Luna: "Give them a chance she said, it'll be great she said."

  Destiny: (Huesst!) *She hissed in thought, causing Luna to smirk.*

  Coco: "Praise the Astragons-" *She looked up to the ceiling.* "It's beautiful seeing anomalies like this."

  Luna: "Aye? You talkin' about me?!"

  Taco: "Interesting!" *He suddenly burst like a balloon, causing Luna to squeal in fright.*

  Luna: "Wat the-?!"

  Taco: *He popped beside Luna and landed on her shoulder, as he was only a few inches high.* "Take me to the locked room!"

  Luna: "Get it off!" *She screamed and slapped Taco off her shoulder.*

  Coco: "You just hit poor Taco!"

  Luna: *She placed one hand on her chest.* "You scared the shit out of me-"

  Coco: "Yucksy!"

  Taco: "That's yoodly goodly gross!"

  Luna: "Gah-" *She rolled her eyes.* "Not literally-"

  Taco: *He suddenly appeared in a pop-like manner on Luna's shoulder.* "So, you need to find the locked door."

  Luna: (Shit, that's twice he's done that!) *She sniffed and pretended not to be frightened.* "Locked door?"

  Taco: "This way."

  Coco: "I'll wait outside."

  Taco: "Yoody do!" *He smiled and watched Coco suddenly fade out of the room.*

  Luna: *She ignored Taco and focused on her shoulder, looking at Taco.* "Wat are you?"

  Taco: *He smiled.* "I'm just a full-time Diareamer."

  Luna: "Full time? Why don't you go down to casual then?"

  Taco: "..."

  Luna: "Wateva." *She sighed and rolled her eyes, as if she was annoyed Taco didn't get her joke.*

  Taco: *He waved his hand across a golden wall, causing it to fold inwards like paper.* "This is the room full of secrets."

  Luna: "Secrets?"

  Taco: "Things that you have forgotten, things about you, you have yet to understand."

  Luna: *The ground started to move like an escalator, forcing Luna towards the other room.* "It's like a treadmill-"

  Taco: "Here-" *He squinted his eyes, as the room was much brighter than the others.* "Open the door."

  Luna: "Another door?" *She spoke on her breath, as she noticed hundreds of doors lined up from each other.* "Aye?!" *She looked up and noticed doors on the ceiling.* "On the ceiling too?!"

  Destiny: (What is this?)

  Luna: (I dunno, now it feels like a dream aye.)

  Taco: "Pick one."

  Luna: "Pick one?"

  Taco: "Yoody." *He nodded his head.*

  Luna: "You've gone from a hobbit, to a little troll now ain't ya."

  Taco: *He kicked his legs in the air, as he comfortably sat on Luna's shoulder.* "You're so yoody woody rudy."

  Luna: "Lame." *She grunted and casually walked to the closest door.* "I just noticed, they all don't have handles-"

  *The door suddenly and slightly popped open, causing Luna to shrug her shoulders.*

  Luna: *She reached forward and flicked open the door, causing spears of ice to suddenly jab her in the stomach.* "Gah-?!"

  Destiny: (Luna!)

  *Luna wheezed forward with a dropping jaw and went to cover her stomach, noticing the ice had disappeared.*

  Destiny: (Luna?!)

  Luna: "Gah-" *She choked in pain, as if the ice was still embedded in her stomach.* (It still hurts?)

  Taco: "Looks like you opened the wrong one."

  Luna: "There're wrong ones?!" *She wheezed and started to sweat.*

  Taco: "You'll just need to open another one." *He spoke with a casual tone, causing Luna to frown.*

  Luna: "Fuck you." *She grunted and walked towards the next door, cueing it to open on its own accord.* "Alrighty-"

  *Luna flung open the door and a wave of flames scorched past her head, causing her to scream.*

  Luna: "Holy shit!"

  Destiny: (Luna!)

  Luna and Destiny: (It burns!)

  Taco: "What are you yoody doodly doing?"

  Luna: "Like dyin'!-" *She flapped her hands in front of her face and opened her eyes, noticing no traces of flames.* "Wh-Where did it go?"

  Taco: "Nothing inside?" *He tried to gather Luna's attention to the door, leading towards pure darkness.*

  Luna: "There's nothin'." *She squinted her watering eyes, as if she could still feel the pain.*

  Taco: "Better try another door."

  Luna: "Nah, not doin' this again. I'm nopin' outta here."

  Taco: "You're already this far..."

  Luna: "..."

  Destiny: (Luna?)

  Luna: (Wat should I do?)

  Destiny: (I don't know. Maybe ask for what door to look for?)

  Luna: *She sniffed and nodded her head.* "Wat am I lookin' for?"

  Taco: "A door."

  Luna: "Gah." *She grunted.* "No shit. I mean, is there a special door? Or anythin' like that?"

  Taco: *He shook his head.* "No. These doors are all the same."

  Luna: "A hint?"

  Taco: *He smiled, as if he wanted Luna to ask that question.* "The will to move forward, the desire for results, the urge to succeed.. These are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence."

  Luna: "Aye? Some stupid riddle?"
