RacWade>	Lus pilots the airship to a safe descent just outside the hut.
	<Cassie>	:3c
	<RacWade>	or at least he attempts to
	<Kafei>	Elise makes her appearance up on deck, likely realizing that travel has been made.
	<Aurida>	@Rac: He does.
	<RacWade>	Lus turns his head. "Ah, hello, Elise."
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Mm. This is it, then? Pretty unassuming place.
	<Kafei>	Elise displays a small smile, and nods to Lusineed.
	|<--	Doak has left irc.mibbit.net (Ping timeout)
	<RacWade>	He grins back, before turning to Kyu. "Eh. If it's like Lenaile's shrine, it's bigger down below."
	<Varna>	(Darius) Ah.. hello, Elise.
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Yeah, probably. Only one way to find out, right?
	<Varna>	(Darius) *quietly* Glad to have you back.
	<Kafei>	"Hello..." she says, looking around. "Are we at the next shrine already...?"
	<Aurida>	** Kyu deploys the offloading ramp.
	<RacWade>	"Yep yep!" says Lus, heading to the ramp.
	<Varna>	(Darius) We're about to be, it seems...
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Mm. I guess we should ask who's all going.
	<Cassie>	Syl looks to Elise and feels sympathy for her, but then focuses on the hut. He moves off the ramp.
	<Cassie>	*uses the ramp*
	<Varna>	Darius motions to the ramp, and follows the rest of them.
	<Cassie>	:V
	<Kafei>	Elise sighs quietly, and follows the others.
	<Aurida>	(Lissina) Well... you need people here to guard the ship against being taken over again, right? And... hm.
	<Kafei>	(Drew carey can handle it!)
	<Cassie>	(lul)
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) ...I'm heading out with them, on the off chance that it comes to a fight. You, Lynna, and Kale can stay behind, if you're alright with that...
	<Aurida>	(Lissina) Meh. Why're you REALLY going?
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) ...
	<Kafei>	"P-Perhaps I can stay, if you feel it is necessary to have another to guard the ship, miss Lissina..."
	<RacWade>	Lus glares at Lissina. "Cut her a break."
	<Soloxius>	Sirik follows Syl.
	<Aurida>	(Lissina) Heh. Nah, us three should be fine. It'll work out. Have fun, all of you.
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) ...Yeah.
	<RacWade>	Lus smiles. "We'll be back in two shakes of a lamia's tail."
	<Aurida>	** Lissina shakes her tail twice, grinning. "You liar."
	<Cassie>	xD
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) ...Alright, let's just get on with it, so we can get to the good part. Where we break Gerard's face.
	<Aurida>	** Investigate HUT?
	<Cassie>	y
	<RacWade>	Lus chuckles. "Damn, would've sworn that'd work . . ." He nods to Kyu. "Right-o, partner."
	<Soloxius>	y
	<RacWade>	also y
	<Aurida>	** Leaving the airship behind, the party travels to the relatively small stonework shack. It seems rather weathered, and it seems to consist of a single room. There are no windows, but some more of the light-shedding pearls are embedded into various surfaces.
	<Aurida>	** The only notable thing in the room is the presence of a statue, as has been expected of these shrines. It depicts a younger woman, holding a scale. The usual panel in the middle of the floor exists as normal, unlit.
	<RacWade>	Lus looks at the scale. ". . . forgive me, but . . . I'm not touching that thing."
	<Cassie>	Syl stares at the statue. "Me either."
	<Kafei>	Elise looks at it curiously. "W-Who is that woman...?"
	<RacWade>	"Amelia, you know her?"
	<Aurida>	@Rac: (Amelia) Nope. Must just be one of these weird shrine things.
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) ...There aren't any doors... or stairs, or anything. Where do we go?
	<Kafei>	Elise approaches the statue curiously, and inspects it.
	<RacWade>	Lus has a thought. ". . . Amelia . . . you've gotten instruction in the way of being a ruler, right? All those policies and procedures and . . . lots and lots of /rules/ to follow?"
	<Aurida>	** The statue appears weathered, but altogether not too badly. The scales she holds hold nothing, and she wears an impartial look on her face. Her eyes seem almost lifelike, almost capable of watching.
	<Aurida>	@Rac: (Amelia) ...Yeah... why...?
	<Kafei>	(Empathy?)
	<RacWade>	". . . I think . . . I think you might be the best person in our group for appeasing this shrine of lawfulness."
	<Aurida>	@Kafei: Nothing
	<Aurida>	@Rac: (Amelia) ...Oh. Do what you must, then...
	<RacWade>	Lus carefully puts Amelia on the panel.
	<Kafei>	Elise, taken by curiosity, places a hand on one of the scales held by the statue.
	<Aurida>	** Amelia is set on the panel at the same time Elise tips one of the scales with her hand. The statue's eyes light up with a glowing red shine, and the room illuminates even further...
	<Aurida>	** The door shuts suddenly, as the room starts moving. Is it going down?
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Hey, what'd you two DO?
	<Cassie>	"Well, we need to go down, don't we?"
	<Varna>	(Darius) Whatever it is, it seems we are moving in...
	<Kafei>	Elise stumbles backward in surprise. "A-Aah!"
	<RacWade>	"Wh-Whoa!"
	<Aurida>	Kyu looks around the room. "Yeah, but... I dunno, I expected some stairs or something, not the entire room to move... "
	<Kafei>	Elise looks around wildly. "What is happening...?!"
	<Aurida>	** The scale that Elise moved oddly stays tipped, even with nothing on it. The statue's eyes lose their glow quickly.
	<Varna>	(Darius) Calm down, Elise... we seem to just be moving down slowly.
	<Varna>	(Darius) Think of it like the airship, only with a room instead...
	<Soloxius>	Sirik stays silent.
	<Varna>	Darius peers around the room as he says this, staying wary for any changes.
	<RacWade>	". . . an . . . elevator . . .?"
	<Varna>	(Do we even know what an elevator is :T)
	<RacWade>	I choose to believe that we do
	<RacWade>	if not, I choose to coin the term, for I am a bard and this is a room which changes elevation
	<Soloxius>	(lol)
	<Cassie>	Syl steps a little closer to Sirik and hides behind his arm quietly.
	<Cassie>	(:P)
	<Soloxius>	(:3)
	<Aurida>	(:P)
	<Soloxius>	Sirik smiles and stays quiet.
	<Aurida>	(love in an elevator)
	<Cassie>	(why did that just make me lol)
	<RacWade>	oh god we're locked iiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnn
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) So, what, we just wait?
	<Cassie>	"I guess..."
	<RacWade>	". . . Elise, can you put your hand back on it . . .?"
	<Varna>	(Darius) Here... I will try.
	<Varna>	Darius steps forward and touches the statue.
	<Aurida>	** It is a statue.
	<Varna>	(Did we stop moving/not move anymore or what)
	<Varna>	(Im confused on that bit)
	<RacWade>	as am I
	<Kafei>	(Elise is suddenly compelled to make out with the statue.)
	<Soloxius>	(it was the scales)
	<Cassie>	(lol)
	<Varna>	(Yes, the scales, thats what I meant to touch)
	<RacWade>	hey, I thought I was the guy who'd make out with justice >:O
	<Aurida>	(Ah)
	<Aurida>	(No, the elevator is still moving downwards. The scale, however, remains unbalanced, with the left one lower than the right.)
	<RacWade>	ah, ok
	<Cassie>	Elise isn't a guy
	<Cassie>	:P
	<RacWade>	@Cassie: your point
	<Cassie>	So theres room for one more ;D
	<RacWade>	well anyhow
	<RacWade>	Lus, curiously, picks up Amelia from the panel.
	<Varna>	(Darius) Hm... perhaps when we get to the bottom, tipping the scale the other way would bring us back up..?
	<Aurida>	@Rac: (Amelia) Phew...
	<Aurida>	** The elevator continues descending.
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Seems like our best bet.
	<RacWade>	"Thanks, Amelia . . . and you too, Elise."

	<Aurida>	** The room slows, then stops. The door opens, revealing a very wide, tall cavern of sorts, and a semi-sprawling town. Several of its inhabitants- short figures in concealing robes of various colors- approach the door from the outside, talking excitedly to each other.
	<Soloxius>	Sirik puts his arm around Syl's shoulders carefully.
	<Soloxius>	(oh retcon that)
	<Soloxius>	(:B)
	<Aurida>	(or don't, either one works)

	<Varna>	Darius steps forward to be in between Elise and the figures.
	<Soloxius>	(Sirik) Woah.
	<Kafei>	(Empathy from the robed men?)
	<Aurida>	(Kyu) Look at all of 'em. The hell are they?
	<Cassie>	Syl glances at the robed beings and stays behind Sirik's arm, wondering what's going on. The idea of being in a lawful shrine doesn't sit well with him.
	<Aurida>	@Kafei: Curiosity, mainly, with one of them towards the back carrying a strict sense of... duty? That one, robed in pure white, seems to be making its way through the crowd.
	<RacWade>	"Only one way to find out. Uh, Amelia, that projection gimmick of yours may become helpful in the not-too-distant-future . . ."
	<Aurida>	@Rac: (Amelia) Understood.
	<RacWade>	Lus proceeds with (or past) Darius to meet the men.
	<Kafei>	Elise sticks to the back, feeling somewhat nervous.
	<Varna>	(Past, he only stepped forward enough to be in front of Elise)
	<RacWade>	(( ok ))
	<Cassie>	Syl glances up at Sirik. "I'll let you lead this time..." he says softly, sounding a tad nervous.
	<Aurida>	** It doesn't seem like they're carrying visible weapons. The white-robed one moves through, his voice audibly sounding 'make way, make way' as he moves to meet the party. Eventually, he makes it to the front of the crowd, looking over the party.
	<Soloxius>	Sirik nods and walks slowly forward near the front.
	<RacWade>	oh boy oh boy oh boy

	<Aurida>	meanwhile
	<Aurida>	** He's oddly silent, just observing for a moment, until he kneels, speaking in an elderly-sounding voice. "Those brought to us by the great stone pillar. What purpose brings you to our humble village?"
	<RacWade>	". . . we seek entrance into the Law Shrine." Lus relates the predicament of moon lasers and whatnot.
	<Aurida>	** There's various whispering amongst the folk, to the tune of dual wonder and excitement. The white
	<Aurida>	...
	<Aurida>	** The white-robed man turns to Lusineed's party, looking them over once more.

	<Aurida>	(???) So... the time has come, has it not? You are those chosen to save the surface world?
