Belle carefully searches the sleeping Mage, but there was little of use stowed away in the practical clothes of the man. She found a steel coin marked with a complex rune and a cheap phone in the one pocket she had easy access to. His hair is kept rather short, but Belle manages to cut off a 'strand' of about 3 inches. It isn't much and without a sensible way to keep it in she might as well throw it away right away.
Rushing over to Aurora there seemed to be no immediately visible wounds on the owl. Has something else brought her down, maybe something guarding the Artifact? Did she overstrain herself? She probably didn't have the proficiency in Life to attempt to heal her, but maybe she could help the Thyrsus some other way - maybe she could get her out of the frail owl-form?

meanwhile was working overtime, giving orders assessing the situation and getting right to chanting. Picturing the barrier between the Fallen World and the Abyss, once could almost imagine it being paper thin already. Drenched paper, even. But still, things needed to be done and despite knowing full well what a 'sunk cost fallacy' was, they came too far to turn around now. He pictured a way to re-shape the wall to make it climbable and despite black pain surging through his body he maintained enough focus to bring the Imago to this reality. It wasn't the most comfortable way to get up there, but it was certainly better than nothing.
Once up there his weight made more and more of the alcove glow slightly and little by little the stone coffin Aurora already saw revealed itself. Indeed the top of it was something transparent, a pane of glass that was worked seamlessly into the stone. Inside he could make out the nearly skeletal remains of someone. He couldn't know for sure that this was a woman's corpse, but Corn had some context clues to go off of.
For instance the ghost of a woman that sat at the far end of the coffin and looked at the Moros longingly.
"Added to Inventory" sounds real swell - but I'm afraid I'm going to ask exactly how

is storing the hair. To clarify: it is not impossible to just put it in your jeans pocket but it'd be nice to know how she's going to go with this. Just in case her pants catch fire. Bonus points if it's not a conveniently appearing plastic ziploc bag.
If Belle wants to look in other pockets she will have to move the man, which brings the possibility of waking him up.

when updating the health-boxes to add damage, you'll have to reduce the last number (signifying empty boxes) by the same amount. In other words: you're now showing 9 boxes of health - 1 wounded and 8 empty.
