That calm serenity of hers... it belongs to me, now.


Sharp listened to the ring of the phone for a few seconds before the call was answered.

"You've reached Dr. Fyrane." It was her usual greeting, meaning she probably didn't look to see who was calling before answering. She also didn't say anything more, as to give the caller a chance to say their piece.

"Dr. Remmington." Sharp replied, remembering how she preferred to be referred to.

"It's Agent Sharp. I have just sent you an email containing information that will be crucial to your research." he told her.

"I just wanted to let you know, so you could read it post-haste." he then said.

"I'll leave you be, now. Good luck in your research." he finished.

"Oh! Thanks." Kiah responded after a few seconds. He could hear her typing.

"And.... here's the confirmation I got it. Thanks, I'll get right on that." she added.

"Here's hoping it makes a difference."

"I hope so, too." Sharp replied.

"Again, good luck." he said.

He then hung up the phone, and sighed.

"Please let this be what works." he whispered quietly.

"Please... just... let this be what they need." he finished, before sitting back in his chair.

Kiah printed the email off before getting to her feet and leaving the room.

"Yo! Ilias!" She called as she headed out, wondering where the gorgon was. She had some information he may be interested to hear, although she was sure he had a suspicion of it, regardless.

"Where are ya!?" She called into the rather empty lab. At the moment there weren't many people in there due to how it was a case of it being the weekend, and she let most people keep weekends free. Plus they were kinda getting in her way for the research for the moment, anyway.

A few seconds later, she heard a door being opened, and when she looked down a small hallway, she saw Illias poking his head out of the coffee break room.

He looked over towards her and waved.

"Hello!" he called back.

"I'm making some coffee!" he told her.

"It's almost done if you want me to come see something!" he then added.

Kiah nodded before making her way to where he was and stepped into the room.

"Yo." She said. "There enough in there for me too? Or do I need to do up a fresh pot?" She asked as she was checking over the print out again. She wasn't looking to see how much there is, as she figured the inquiry would be good enough.

"And got some information regarding those stone statues that might help"

"Naw, there's plenty." Illias replied.

"I literally just made a fresh pot, so there's enough for a giant mug for both of us." he told her.

He then looked about to say something more, before he froze.

"Ah..." he stammered.

"You did!?" he exclaimed.

"That's great!"

"Oh, awesome." Kiah said as she looked up.

"Because I am dead tired." She admitted with a sigh before handing him the folder once he'd made up his coffee and had a spare hand.

"Take a look." She then said

Illias sat down at the table when she handed him the folder, and started to look through the contents.

"....oh wow..." he said.

"Woah..." he mumbled further.

"Oh, holy crap..." he then commented, stunned.

"Is.. is this...?" he said further, before shaking his head.

"Is... this for real?" he asked. "Because this is AMAZING work." he said. "This looks to be the work of a veritable genius." he commented further.

"But this could make all the difference." he told her.

"This is the break we've been looking for, Kiah!"

Kiah just grinned lightly.

"Not sure about that, but it may very well be exactly what he need, yeah." She agreed after a few seconds.

"There was one thing I thought was interesting though." She then said after a few seconds.

"Like how it seems that there is some gorgon venom involved."

"....I noticed that." Illias replied.

"That... may present a problem." he told her.

"But I won't know until we perform some tests, to see just how important the venom is." he went on.

"Which means we should get to work." he reasoned with a small sigh, before drinking some of his coffee.

"...wow." he said.

"Better than it usually is." he commented.

"We get a new kind in or something?" he asked her.

Kiah nodded.

"Of course. Tests are always required." She commented.

"As for your inquiry, yeah." She added after a few seconds. "Got some from a friend of the family."

"She can find the best blends anywhere, so I got some from her. Usually just keep it at home, but since I know it's just us here at the moment I figured I'd bring in the quality blend."

"Well, this is amazing stuff." Illias replied.

"I feel energized and ready to go." he told her.

He then sighed as he took another drink, and looked at the files again.

"....so... what first?" he asked.

"Where do we start with all this?" he asked her.

"Because... there's a good amount to sift through."

Kiah just sighed lightly.

"That... is a very good question." She answered.

"I'm... not entirely sure where to start. Then again, I haven't actually looked through it all yet." She admitted.

"I got the print out before heading out this way to find you."

"Oh." Illias replied.

He then handed the folder back to her, and sighed.

"Maybe take a look." he said.

"There's some revolutionary stuff in there." he told her.

"Some of those things could have changed the course of science and alchemy as we know it." he went on.

"...that might be a bit of an exaggeration." he then admitted.

"But you get my drift."

Kiah nodded.

"I do." She accepted the file back.

"I took a cursory glance, but admittedly I didn't see much." She added.

"IO just... have to wonder... how did Sharp get this information?" She asked, knowing he wouldn't be able to answer that.

"Because... there are some alchemical formalae in the mix."

"A lot seemed... missing, too." Illias replied.

"Almost a bit... disjointed?" he said further.

"I'm not sure how to put it." he admitted.

"But yes, this is strange." he agreed.

"We suddenly get this influx of information. How?" he wondered.

"This seems amazing, even for him."

"We'll have to ask him about that later." Kiah commented.

"But for now, let's try and digest what we've gotten so far. Even if it's not quite complete, it's at least something to work off of." She added.

"Anyway, I'm taking it to lab A. It's available and doesn't have anything going on in there - and isn't needing to be cleaned. Come help me go through this later, hey?" She asked after making herself a mug of coffee.

"Later.. sooner... whenever. Just at some point."

"I'll be there in 5 minutes or so." Illias replied.

"I'm going to clean up a bit of the mess here, and then make my way to you." he said.

"Make things a LITTLE easier for the janitorial staff." he added.

"But yeah, I'll make it as quick as possible." he then assured her.

"Is there anything you want me to bring to the lab when I head out to join you?" he asked.
