[ooc] ...I see that it's up to me now. I'm sorry everyone who wanted this to die, even if it was supposed to die, but I can't let it. Gomen.

In order to listen to the song I've placed in (it's an spc file), you have to be able to have winamp with the spc plugin, or an SPC player. (download at http://www.zophar.net/utilities/spc.html ) Sorry about this, but the file was perfect for this, and it was really small too. [/ooc]

Nostalgia

Mizuki: "Wh..What are all these coffins doing in here?!?!"
Fang: *turns away from Mizuki and thinks hard* "I don't think I want to know.... I mean, what if they hold some mummies, or dead people or something? Wouldn't it be gruesome..." *turns* "...Hey!--Mizuki! What are you doing?!"

Mizuki was looking inside a coffin a little bit away. In truth, she only asked the question because her mind wished for her to do so, since she had wisdom. In reality, you could say she mentally knew the answer, but not the question. So, Mizuki just went along her way and looked into the coffin deeply, while Fang walked slowly, checking each coffin. He never saw anything in each one except what looked like an abyss of infinite darkness, since he never opened each one, and the cover was made of some odd glass. Each coffin held almost the same thing. Each infinite abyss, however, was differently shaped from the last. The one he was currently looking at looked something like a half-oval on top of a line, that was on top of a square, that was on top of a circle. Strangely enough, he had no idea what it was supposed to mean. His ear twitched involuntarily, as he heard a voice.

Mizuki: "Hey, Fang! Come here, quick!"
Fang: "What is it? Is something wrong?"
Mizuki: "Just HURRY!"

Fang immediately ran to Mizuki. The way Mizuki was screaming at him to hurry, anyone would get the idea that she just saw some gold, or that she found a supposedly extinct animal. Upon getting to Mizuki, and re-inquiring about the yelling, Mizuki pointed into the coffin. Fang looked down slowly, and the time it took for him to look down seemed like an eternity. When he did see what he saw, his eyes flashed surprise, then confusion, then anger and sadness. All that was in the coffin, was the body of the Elder. Fang tried to speak up, but could find no words to speak of his emotions that came in. Mizuki looked at Fang, then at the Elder, and became confused. Never really ever having parents or anyone to truly take care of her, she couldn't understand the feelings of losing "family" members. In this case, Mizuki had a tiny bit of understanding, because she knew that the Elder had been the leader of the Village for many generations. It was like losing a father; but she didn't know anything about that. Therefore, she just stared at Fang, until he finally spoke up.

Fang: "Is he...?"
Mizuki: "You mean, dead? I should think so. But.. wouldn't they bury him?"
Fang: "Yes..."

A short pause, and then Mizuki spoke again.

Mizuki: "Why would the mages want the body of a dead person?"
Fang: "I don't know. How could anyone use a dead body?"
Mizuki: "Well, from my experience in reading, if you take the ashes from a really honorable persons body, you can make a potion with it that could save someone from dying."
Fang: "So you mean they could try and stop us from killing them?"
Mizuki: "Of course. If they have the body, then they can do whatever they want. Of course, they need the other ingredients to make the potion into what it's supposed to be, and only one person in the entire world knows where to get them all."
Fang: "Who would that person be?"
Mizuki: "I don't know. I think his name was... Marlin? Mevlin? Mclin-- something-lin."

As Mizuki trailed off into this thought, Fang looked at the dead body and thought about it for a moment. Why would the body be here, and not at the graveyard with the others..? Upon this thought (among all others), Fang looked up at the ceiling. It wasn't as if the Mages wouldn't want his body for something like Mizuki said, but the village would've kept the body of their diceased leader so they could honor him. Him being in the coffin in this very temple also didn't make any sense, partly because of the village, but mostly because it did not take him and Mizuki too long to get to the temples, and he never noticed anyone moving with something large being carried...

Fang: "Mizuki."
Mizuki: "Hm?"
Fang: "I'm going to go back to the village."
Mizuki: "What?!"
Fang: "I need to find out why the Elder's body is here, and not in the village graveyard."

Fang started to walk away, and just when he was about 10 ft away, Mizuki started after him.

Mizuki: "Then I'll go with you!"
Fang: *stops (which stops Mizuki), turns around, and shakes his index finger* "I don't think so, Mizuki....." *looks at Mizuki's face, which resembled that of a small, left out child, then softens up* "You'd only slow me down."

Fang ran off afterwards and Mizuki stood alone in the coffin room, dumbfounded, but with understanding. Mizuki finally turned around, and began to walk to the next room, only stopping to look at the Elder one last time, but not closing the door.

[ooc]I swear, I hope you guys (if you're looking at this AND reading it) listened to the music. [/ooc]
