Amethyst blankly stared at the machine, occasionally moving a small crystal she had placed inside the machine, saving the small metal ball from falling off into the "miss zone." It was a far more direct means of cheating than Emily's focus enhancements, but Amethyst didn't see the device as a game. The score now read 932184. It would be some time before it would return to the initial value.
"ETA until the detonation of the initial explosive device is now at 2.3 minutes. Analysis of Lutherion's casting methods has been interrupted and most likely will not continue. Analysis of Eximo Pulvis' data concluded some time ago, calculating him to be exactly as he appears. Analysis of this closed space also concluded earlier, confirming my initial theory of a looping structure. My personal intuition suggests the larger explosion caused by the unstable gravitational influence devices will occur within approximately 3 minutes."
Completely out of nowhere, Amethyst had spouted everything she had determined from her scans.
"And why are you telling me all that?"
"This information was beneficial to my assessment of the situation."
She looked down, somewhat disappointed,
"I was hoping it would be beneficial to you as well."
Nathan kept playing,
"It might be, if I could actually understand anything you were saying."
"I see, I apologize if my method of communication has been difficult to understand."
On the machine, the ball fell down into the miss zone, ending the game at 957271 points. Nathan turned towards Amethyst, slightly annoyed.
"But if I may conclude my explanation of the situation, the explosive device is in the near vicinity of the dragonness. In approximately 2 minutes, we will most likely be pulled out of this space, and 'Round 3' will begin."
