[Setting: Middle of the desert, seemingly in the middle of nowhere.]
Ryuko: We're going to be in so much trouble. You do realize that, right?
[A large doorway greets them as they are walking.]
[DESC - Doorway: Made of sandstone with granite doors. There are intricate, forigen runes all over the tomb.]
Kiyo: Oh, well. Come on! [She drags Ryuko to the doors.] I was exploring yesterday and I found this. [She motions to the tomb]
[Ryuko walks up the the door and starts reading out loud]
Ryuko: Huh, it says something here... "Six gems, each a pilliar of this world. A power, gifted by the gods and bestowed to each of the human leaders. They abused the power and the gods placed a curse on the people. Six children, every 60th generation would be cursed to forever hold another immmortal within them."
Kiyo: I honestly don't see how that can be bad.
Ryuko: I'm not done. It goes on saying that at a certain age, the essence will take over and the child's soul will be lost forever.
Kiyo: [paniking] HOLY CRAP! SO AS FAR AS WE KNOW, WE HAVE A PARASITIC DEMON INSIDE US, WAITING TO TAKE OVER AND WRECK HAVOC?!?!?!?!?
Ryuko: [anime sweat drop] Kiyo, relax. I don't think that you have demon-
Kiyo: [cutting Ryuko off and still paniking] I COULD! I'M NOT RELATED BY BLOOD AND - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Ryuko: Calm down, Kiyo. Now, you were saying about a map?
Kiyo: [distracted] Oh, yeah!
[She pulls out a weathered parchment with similar runes.]
Kiyo: Long story short, I went into that tomb, found the map devoid of traps, took it and found you. I can't understand a word of it. How do you?
Ryuko: [annoyed slightly] [sighs] You remember NOTHING from the lessons, do you? We learned this. You never listen to the High Priest, do you?
Kiyo: Not really.
Ryuko: [sighs again] [notices something] Hey, look at this.
[He points to a group of runes in the top left corner of the map, thinking Kiyo can read it.]
Kiyo: Can't read it.
Ryuko: Right. Anyways, it says that if you find the crystals, you will be able to ask the gods to pardon the generations.
Kiyo: Then all we have to do is find them!
Ryuko: It's not that simple, Kiyo-
[SFX: a woman's high-pitched scream]
Kiyo: [sniffing air] Smoke.
Kiyo and Ryuko: The village!
