> Duximas: Ask Tukha about the door.
"Hey Tukha, I've never been too clear 'bout that door a' yours," you say.
"That's for a reason, friend," Tukha says with a smile. "I never told anyone much of anything about it. I suppose it scarcely matters now, though, so ask me anything you want."
"Is the door a one-way kinda thing? Like, could ya go back from the afterlife to the Centrality?"
Tukha laughs. "Thankfully it's not! I can't imagine what kind of chaos we'd need to deal with if spirits could come back into the Centrality after going to the afterlife. No, I'm sure you know this already, but how it works is as follows: When someone dies, their spirit is severed from their body by Tzarth, then I escort them to Diza and Dia's courtroom for judgment. Then, after Diza and Dia are done, I take the spirit to the door and usher them into the afterlife. That door only opens for me, and only in one direction." He pauses. "Or at least that's how it used to work. I have no idea how that usurper is running it now. I do know that my door has not been opened since we were ejected from the Centrality."
"Hm." You frown. "Sounds like we wouldn't be able to get into the Centrality that way, then."
"Likely not, friend."
> Duximas: Ask Krytikas about her void cloak ability.
"I remember ya told me ya could stay under th' notice a' most people, right, Krytikas?" you ask.
She nods curtly. "That's right."
"'Zat apply to people around you too?"
"Unfortunately not," Krytikas says. "And it's not 'on' all the time either. Just so you know."
You cross your arms. "No luck there, either. I don't suppose ya know some kinda secret entrance into the Centrality, either."
"Actually..." Krytikas stops and looks upwards, thinking. "I do. Come to think of it, Meion was keeping a secret about an entrance to the Centrality in mortal lands. Let's see... apparently it was a door, walled up inside a monument on some forgotten island."
Ah. That island.
"Believe it or not, I know where that is," you say. "How do ya get into th' monument?"
"Two stone spheres," Krytikas says. "One light, the other dark."
"Hm... anything else?"
"Yeah, maybe you know some mortals or something with secret plans?" Breza asks.
Krytikas arches an eyebrow, but considers the question anyway. "Actually, yes. There's a trio of mortals who are trying to... Huh."
"What is it?" Tukha asks.
"They're trying to kill the goddess."
