<span class="mu-b">"...I wonder how old these caves are."</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Hmm? Caves? Jon- they are just as the Gods left them at the creation of the world. I think you should know that."</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Yeah!"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Well, yeah, but... what Age are we talking? The Age of the Stars? Age of the Moons? or the Age of the Sun? The world was not always the same since its founding. And there are even those, in some circles, who believe in a time before the Gods themselves..."</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Blasphemy!"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"I didn't say I believed it- it isn't a curse to speak a theory."</span>

With a violent speed, Jon clapped his hand over Elly's mouth, a wide-eyed expression over his face.
<span class="mu-b">"Shhh! Elly- don't speak that name- if you speak his name, it may... summon him."</span>

<span class="mu-r">"Look at that glow- that looks like magic!"</span>
"...Maybe we can eat 'em? Who wants to try?"
<span class="mu-b">"Well- I can say that some cures and poultices call for rare mushrooms as ingredients for healing recipes... as well as stew recipes."</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Should we take some, Jon? I could give them a look."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Perhaps, but we'd need to collect a bunch, and it may weight us down from carrying something more valuable..."</span>
