Dr Blight wrote:"His crown, his scepter, his greaves. his armor, and his mantle all contain a portion of his power. And I have been bound to the necklace for one thousand one hundred and eighty six years. Ever since the ponies took it from my grave and placed it around the statue of me in their shrine." She said with a little smile, she stayed silent for a long while before admitting sheepishly. "I haven't had much to do but watch the goings on about the island and count the years. Did you know ponies without wings can fly now? Using these strange blankets filled with air attached to a basket!" She says this with excitement obvious in her voice as if it were a marvel.
A loud crash interrupts the conversations as Stone Force finally gets bored of using the guards battering ram and simply punches the doors to the museum down with his bare hands, finally allowing guards inside.
"Do they need to bring the pieces to a certain place to awaken the Windigo King, par hasard?" Halynn inquires, ignoring the crash. This seemed to be more important at the moment.

"Do the artifacts have any magical qualities on their own?" Healing Torch says, "And if we bring the necklace you're haunting with us, can you accompany us?"Dr Blight wrote:"His crown, his scepter, his greaves. his armor, and his mantle all contain a portion of his power.

"Would you know where those relics are? Please do not say that they were kept on this island."

Re: The Rise of the Windigo King
"They would need to gather the relics where the windigo king fell to return his powers to his body and revive it. As to them having powers of their own I do not know. I died too soon after the battle to test that. They are saturated with his power though, they could be used as catalysts for incredibly powerful magic I assume."
She turned to look at Ragnarok. "Not...exactly. They were each taken by various tribes to be guarded. I know where those tribes intended to take them initially was within this chain of islands. But it's been over 1000 years. In that time, the tribe that kept my necklace died of illness. I do not know how the other tribes fared or if their relics were not found and moved already. But yes, I cannot stray too far from the necklace. If I am to aid you, you must have it in your possession." She said turning her attention towards Torch again.

"...Tartarus!" Halynn swore. "So much for my idea of just finding one item and staying there to guard it. If we do that, they might just gather the others and use them against us. But if we collect them all, we're practically asking them to snatch it away from us at the last minute, since I'm pretty sure none of us are going to use that magic. Too risky. And we obviously can't leave them where they are." She turns thoughtful. "I suppose we could get one of the pieces and throw it into the ocean. Unless they have seaponies, that should keep them from getting it."

"A large amount of lava or magma would be a better solution. Also we must consider the option that somepony has already taken the relics.

"I think our best bet is to ask around the island and see what the locals know, or maybe interrogate one of the cultists."

"True, but I don't think any of us can get that close to lava without being incinerated," Halynn replies. "Also, even if they've been taken, the only way we're going to find that out is by going there, no?"

"I could originally create or clear great storms with a thought when I was alive, in death my magic radiates out wildly from my resting place causing the unnatural weather this island experiences. I would imagine his relics would affect their surroundings in some similarly unnatural form."

"Venez pour penser à elle, that can tell us if they've been moved," Halynn muses. "Odds are they'd be in a museum, so we can look for museums thaat have had drastic weather changes in the past... millenium... or so..."

Re: The Rise of the Windigo King
"Weather is just one form it could take, he had the power to bend the mind of others, as well as manipulate the spirits. But yes, that sounds like a good plan to start with." She was silent for a long moment. "I have not heard that word before: topography. What does it mean?"
Re: The Rise of the Windigo King
When the Lantern had called him a super-hero, Dr. Death Ray had thought it best not to correct her, Well, at least she got it half-right... and when she mentioned,
He hadn't known quite what to say. He kept thinking, Wonderful? She thinks my robots a wonderful? GREGG, did you hear that? SHE THINKS MY ROBOTS ARE WONDERFUL!
Then, as he slowly came back down to Equestria, he began listening to the spirit of summer, and as she described the Windigo King and his artifacts, the Doctor began to grow more and more interested by the minute.
Artifacts? ...Great magical power? He'd begun ringing his hooves together and grinning. Perhaps one... or all... of those artifacts were just what he need to power the Dark Horse indefinitely?
When the spirit had mentioned topography, GREGG's eye had flashed and he zoomed up beside her. "Topography is a field of planetary science comprising the study of surface shape and features of the Earth and other observable astronomical objects including planets, moons, and asteroids. It is also the description of such surface shapes and features, especially their depictions on maps. The topography of an area can also mean the surface shape and features themselves." The little robot paused for a moment, "At least, that's the quote from Ponypedia that I'm bringing up on my web interface Ms. Verana."
Then something occurred to Dr. Death Ray...
"Wait a sec..." He looks up at the others, "Didn't a big fancy-looking Griffon... take the Mayor hostage... and run into the museum?" the Doctor facehoofs, "Why didn't I see it before? Send the henchman out as a diversion to distract the law enforcement... Then go into the vault and steal the riches... It's a textbook heist..."

Halynn facehooves, berating herself as she follows the group towards the museum. "I should have guessed that. I really should have. Been doing this for a good couple of years, one would think I'd know the ropes. But nooo. Négligent, that's what I am." She turns towards Dr. Death Ray with a rueful smile. "Good thinking on your part, though. You've clearly done this for a long time. I look forward to comparing notes in the future, si vous ne me dérangerait pas."

Land Lobber looks around for the amulet, noting its general safety. "I guess that's part of the contract, even if mayors bein' innocent be debatable."

"Innocent is henceforth being defined as 'not a murderer or rapist'," Halynn informs him.

"Oh it comes pretty naturally," Dr. Death Ray smiled, "Just gotta think of what I would do-"
The Doctor stops there and grins, secretly cursing his luck, "Yeah... I uh... would love to share my... secrets... some time... with you... Sounds like a..."
Date, sir?
Dr. Death Ray froze. "DATE?!"
The Doctor remained silent for a long moment. He glanced around nervously. Coughed. Laughed awkwardly, "Uh... I said... sounds like a... A RATE! Yeah... As in, a first rate idea... yeah..."
The Doctor continues trotting along swiftly after the rest of the group, falling silent as GREGG zips through the air after him.
GREGG...?
Sorry Doctor.
You better be.
Then when Dr. D hears Halynn's definition for 'innocent', he mutters quitely to himself, "Huh... Guess I'm innocent then... Go figure..."

Though her smile is hidden behind her mask, the smile's clear in her voice as she says, "C'est réglé, alors! I look forward to it, then, Dr... Death Ray, was it? A very interesting name. I look forward to hearing the story about that as well."
Truth be told, she was beginning to have suspicions about his "heroism". The color scheme was the generally villainous sort, robots were usually used by villains, and his name was Death Ray. Nonetheless, he didn't have that general... maliciousness that many of the villains she had faced did. Perhaps, with a little persuasion, he could be brought to a more lawful perspective.
She grins behind her mask. It definitely didn't hurt that he liked her. Definitely made things easier. And he did have a sort of awkward charm about him, so it wasn't going to be a painful task. Une fille peut faire pire, non?

At the base of the stairs of the museum, Healing Torch spots the necklace and grabs it, putting it in his saddlebags for safe-keeping.
