*Marianne: Aaand...that should do it.
 	
*The last crystal creature gives a satisfied hum, seeing its color change to match the rest of its kin.
*As Marianne takes a step back to survey the scene, the creatures begin to chant in a joyous tone.
*Crystal Creatures: Harmony! Harmony!
 	
*Marianne: A-Again?!
 	
*A blinding flash of light engulfs the area, and Marianne puts up her hands to shield her eyes from the brilliance.

*A moment passes before the light fades enough for Marianne to open her eyes.
 	
*The orchards were gone. It was as if she'd been transported to the heavens.
 	
*Scintillating colors filter through the clouds, while the creatures continue singing in their strange tones.
*A larger shape, similar to the crystal creatures, comes into view.
*Unlike the others, its body mirrors a perfect rainbow of colors.
 	
*Too awed to speak, Marianne could only stare.
 	
*?: *gasp!*
*?: Could it be? The Rainbow Crystal?!
 	
*A girl bursts in from out of nowhere, startling both the creature and Marianne.
 	
*Rainbow Creature: *?!*
 	
*Marianne: Aaaahh!
 	
*Excited Stranger: Wait! B-Be quiet, please! 
*Excited Stranger: Or you'll scare it off!
 	
*Marianne: What's going on?!
 	
*Excited Stranger: Umm...!
 	
*The rainbow creature seems rather aghast at the noise.

*With another flash, it was gone, along with the rest of its brethren.
*The clouds dissipate, revealing the orchard grounds.
*Was this an illusion all along?
 	
*Marianne: Ow ow ow...My eyes...
*Marianne: Wait, who are you? Where did you even come from?
 	
*The stranger bends down and retrieves a small shard from where the creature was floating.
*She seems rather upset as she turns the piece over and over in her hand.
*Excited Stranger: ...It left before I had a chance to speak!
*Excited Stranger: This might be what I'm looking for. 
*Excited Stranger: The colors, the sheen...Unmistakable!
 	
*Marianne: Hey! Are you even listening?!
 	
*The girl jerks out of her reverie, embarrassed at her behavior.
 	
*Excited Stranger: Oh...Terribly sorry. Where are my manners?
 	
*Auberi: My name is Auberi. I'm an inhabitant of the castle.
*Auberi: Who might you be?
 	
*Marianne: Marianne. Member of the royal guard.
*Marianne: You live in the castle? Can't say I've seen you around...are you a guest?
 	
*Auberi: No, I've lived here my whole life. I just occupy a quiet wing, that's all.
*Auberi: Most people don't really know about me.
 	
*Marianne: Oh.
 	
*Auberi: Anyway, could I ask you about the Rainbow Crystal?
*Auberi: How did you manage to summon it? They're extremely rare!
 	
*Marianne: That's what they're called? I...uh, I really don't know...
*Marianne: I was out on a stroll and then they sort of just appeared.
 	
*Auberi: Hmm...Oh, I know!
*Auberi: Shall we talk in my room instead? I can make you some tea.
 	
*Auberi: You look a bit shaken. I must apologize for scaring you so.
 	
*Marianne: Uh...Sure?
*Marianne: (She seems nice enough. Maybe I should ask her about the creatures.)
*Marianne: (At least I'll know what to write on my report later!)
 	
*As Auberi leads the way, Marianne throws one last look behind her.
*A hint of rainbow continues to shimmer over the courtyard, as if something were waiting and watching.
