"Really interesting. It's actually alive?"
Barnil said, having heard the luminous orb jingle in reply to his question. Even William who had been calibrating the portal coordinates turned in curiosity, and studied the milky-white warm orb in Joshua's hand with significant interest. "To think that the Bloodmoon Abyss has such local lifeforms," he said. "Never heard of that before."
"Joshua, where did you get it?"
"The sky."
Joshua's reply was simple and direct. He never lied to others, and therefore simply answered even when it was a question from two rather neurotic mages. However, the warrior was now positive that both Barnil and William did not realize the source of abnormalities in the Blood Moon.
Lowering his head and slightly tightening his grip over the orb of light that was throbbing excitedly and trying to free itself from his hold, Joshua stared solemnly once more at the mysterious spherical being.
