Video | From the Tower! | UN: Stardust
We made it to the tower.
[She sounds plenty winded, and much like the others involved, the terrain and creatures haven't been super kind to her. But unlike poor Natasha or Yujin, she at least has smaller, less concerning injuries; scrapes and scratches, with the worst of it being the shallow cut left by one of those annoying desert devils that has been haphazardly wrapped in bandage out of the Qiankun bag that Wei Wuxian gave her so long ago.
Also, she is very clearly sunburnt.
Nobody should have let the ginger run off without sunscreen.]
It's hard to doubt now that one of the orbs is definitely in there; I'm pretty sure we heard its voice. Their voices? There were overlapping voices. Usual orb bullshit. It said 'You will not have me'. I suppose it could've been voices that belonged to the people involved, but the orbs have a habit of sounding like that, so...
Anyway. The place is totally impenetrable from typical weapons from the Ximilia. I used the biggest gun in my arsenal and didn't even leave a dent in whatever the tower's supposed to be made with. Actually, the shot kind of just... shimmered? Like there was some weird magic coating, or something. Ergo, orb bullshit, or maybe someone involved who has some crazy strong s... park energy?
There's no doors or anything to get through, either... so what or wherever the true entrance is, it's gonna be annoying to find it.
... We might have seen the person who made the deal, too. At least, I feel like it could be them, since deal-makers aren't usually far from the source. It was a lady with curly hair and dark skin, in a green dress — just a green dress, actually. It definitely wasn't something you could just run around in the desert wearing without getting yourself killed. We're pretty sure she was really there, because the others found a footprint where she'd been standing.
[She shifts, looking a little concerned.]
I swear, I think I heard her say 'help' — when the voices spoke. I mean, it might have been someone else talking, but... I don't know. I just think whoever made a deal, they must be really, really stuck in it. Hopefully you guys in the Roof have been finding some stuff out for the other orb, too? I think we're all getting pretty close...
And — Yujin and Natasha, are you two doing okay? The others got to you to help, right?
[YOUR SAFETIES HAVE BEEN A CONCERN.]

A birthday s'more is possibly the only thing plan that can come to fruition at the moment, so if you insist, I will.
