[Level 2]

[That smell. Its brimstone and fire. And its where the plants are! Oh dear, oh dear.

There is indeed a row of plants that are now on fire when you come to see what is happening. Its quite thick and hot, and there's nothing nearby to put it out. Indeed, it seems that whoever caused this put all watering implements as far away as possible.

Which makes no sense, except...is that flower blooming? In the fire?]

[Kitchen]

[There is a brand new item hanging around in the cabinets. There are three small jars filled with a viscous golden substance. Upon popping open the jars, you find that it's honey!...very lovely-smelling honey. There is a small note on each jar that says to help yourself, so...maybe you will. You do find, should you eat it that it is delicious...

(Eating this may have effects. Not that the person who put the honey there will tell you that.)]

[Magic]

[Letitia is in the Lab, working on....well, Astolfo and Akira will definitely know. Its the same type of strange inscriptions from when she was trying to heat her food up, and yet they are different from before. What could they mean?

Whatever they are, the lady is concentrated on them, perfect brows furrowed deep in thought. Perhaps she could benefit from help.]

Threaded | Flat

[The smell is incredibly heavy and overbearing to Kurama's keen nose. He bolts the rest of the way down when he catches it. It's only when he sees that the row of burning plants is isolated from the rest that he relaxes a little.

But...he does notice the careful distance of all the watering implements. Curiosity draws him closer despite the smell, close enough to see the blooming flower within the flames.

That's...fascinating. He's familiar with some plants that are resistant to fire, even drawn to it, but they aren't usually flowers and this looks almost like it needs the fire.

He extends a delicate thread of energy to the bloom, encouraging its growth.]

[What the heck is up with these people and their honey?

Ok, so yes, she is willing to more or less accept the explanation she'd been given when the beehive in the agricultural floor had been introduced, that earth's bees produce honey that's actually totally safe to eat. Jetshard's still seen enough cases of mind honey overdose in her day to be cautious of a substance that bears such a strong resemblance to the stuff.

Not to mention that, when the general assumption is that the contents of the pantry are for public use, the fact that whoever left this here felt the need to further encourage others to partake... seems a bit dicey to her. Just a bit.

So here's a troll, frowning thoughtfully into an open, but otherwise untouched, jar of honey.]

[Oh, Astolfo definitely knows what's going on here: nothing good. He marches into the lab, hands on his hips disapprovingly.]

What are you trying to do now?!

[Cori does her best to loom ominously over the inscriptions.] So what are these for?
