*the armor has a different set of runes flowing just above the pieces*
It seems something else is leaking the magic.

@Path

Tch, where is Lily when you need her? I'd have her unravel those runes.
*Sticks my hand into a void pocket and withdraws a black metal that melds itself around my fists like a glove*
I'll go in.

*When you look you see the path showing nothing from the surface, but further decryption shows the bottom of the path showing runes that create “movement”. The abyss and rest of the chamber is wild scatter of runes as decryption and translation of the runes.

@Path

This place is seeping with magic. We need to be prepared to be hit with any kind of spell.
*Focuses on the armor*
Here's hoping they don't use transmutation.

A simple spell that only takes a minute amount of my resources. And even less to upkeep.
*looks at you and a small beam hits your eyes from mine and you see the runes glowing in front of my eyes*
Whatever you want analyzed your eyes and mind will tell me and I’ll send the information to you.

@Path

You shouldn't waste magic when it's not called for. You never know when you'll need it.
*Gazes into the path leading to the creature, the abyss, and the walls and ceiling of the chamber*

Yes, I can grant you the ability to translate my identification magic temporarily.

@Path

Are you sure you want to waste the magic on such a simple spell?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

You are team leader.

@Path

Hm, fine. Since Lily isn't here, do you have an identify skill of some kind?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Or take the armor.

@Path

Do you want to play offense or support?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Sometimes magic bleeds into its environment due to the magic energy itself is unstable. It can warp the surroundings. Most of the time it creates wild and complex environments, but sometimes…sometimes.
*walks inside and looks around*
It creates rooms like this.

@Path

Which means we have to take it out? Won't the magic become unstable?
*Steps in beside you, checking for any sudden vibrations in the world around us*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

And it appears to be the artifact too.
*stares at the space*
It completely turned this room into its own realm. Or at least, the magic that was used bled through for an extraordinary amount of time.

@Path

What does that mean? That the magic artifact is its own guardian?

Myriad Reality

*points inside*
This may take some time…
*when you peer inside the room expands immensely, and you see a suit of armor sitting in the middle with a bridge reaching out towards it and nothing but blackness and void surrounding it*

@Path

*Pulls back*
What is Lily even doing right now..? Anyway, looks like our first monster.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*steps to the main door and stops*
Huh, this may be complicated.
*waves you over*

@Path

*Looks it up and down*
What's the problem?
