Episode 2-2: Something Sparkled!

The Other Dimension - Hollow Graveyard
Riddle Riddle	O Fire, come forth!
Ghost Ghost	Eeeek! That's hot! I'm being burned to the depths of my souuuul! Oh, please do save meeeee!
Riddle Riddle	Hmph. Running away already? All bark and no bite, I see!
Ruggie Ruggie	Can you blame him? I'm pretty sure most people going up against you when you're serious would have no choice but to turn tail and run.
Riddle Riddle	Back to the topic at hand, that ghost said something about taking us to "Their Greatness"…
Ruggie Ruggie	They ordered the ghosts to bring living humans to them. Practically reeks of the big bad, doesn't it?
Riddle Riddle	Honestly, I wanted to capture that ghost and question them about all this, but… As one would expect, they are quick to disappear.
Ortho Ortho	…
Riddle Riddle	Ortho? Is something the matter?
Ortho Ortho	Fog, a full moon, graves, time coming to a stop, and ghosts that we can see clearly… Putting those words into the search engine of my database brought up one single place. This is likely…their world! The Land of Ghosts!
Ruggie & Riddle Ruggie & Riddle	The Land of Ghosts?!
Ruggie Ruggie	Y-You don't mean the afterlife, do ya?! Did we somehow make it to the land of the dead while still alive?!
Riddle Riddle	…I see. That would explain why the Enchanted Mirror refuses to work. It may be a magic tool, but I imagine these were not constructed with the idea that it would be used to communicate with the afterlife in mind.
Ruggie Ruggie	Is this really the time to just accept that fact like it's nothing?! How are you so calm?! Man, this is the absolute worst. I know I wanted to go along with this to make sure we'd get our winter vacation, but I was some idiot to shove my neck in to trouble like this. They even say all the time that dead men tell no tales...

Ruggie Ruggie	SOMETHING SPARKLED!
Ortho Ortho	S-So fast! He just pounced straight at the ground.
Riddle Riddle	He suddenly seems so more agile than when he was fighting the ghost earlier.
Ruggie Ruggie	…Oh what, it's just a piece of a mirror? I thought it was like a coin or something.
Riddle Riddle	Despite what you just said, this situation clearly hasn't swayed you enough to remove your sticky fingers… Could you show me what you picked up?

Riddle Riddle	Ahh… I see how you mistook this for a coin now. It's about as large as the tip of my thumb.
Ortho Ortho	I wonder if the ghost from earlier dropped it when he ran.
Riddle Riddle	Hm? There's something else down there. A scrap of paper…? No! Th-This is…!
