As the group approaches Discovery Park, Animus looks for the runed stones and scans the area for anything else unusual. _________________ Matthew Greene

Discovery Park is absent an "talkative" spirits. Most of them seems to respond poorly to your presence, most retreating away or into themselves. You get the distinct feeling that though they aren't hostile, they are probably scared or unhappy about your presence. You easily see the active stones.

Fiddler focused on the area, scanning for anything interesting.
"Hey guys, do you see the other stones? I can see 10 total. They are laid out like the Atlantean pentagram, and the Mind and Fate stones are where they would normally be. This looks like it was arranged by something... we should be careful not to activate the other stones" _________________ Fiddler: Active Spells- Twisting Threads, Steel Trap, holding magic wand, mana =9/10, spell tolerance -1

Animus studies the scene. Ten stones, ten arcana. And yet, only two of them show any overt ties to an arcanum. Perhaps one of the others will yield up some of its secrets.
He begins to study the resonance of the nearest inert stone.
03-13 12:19:32 Animus rolls 6 dice to Int + Occ Failure

03-13 12:20:06 Animus rolls 5 dice to Int + Occ - 1 2 successes
9,5,6,9,3
03-13 12:54:59 Animus rolls 6 dice to Int + Occ Failure
3,4,2,6,5, 5
((Ouch.))
But something seems to be distracting him, and he attains only marginal success in analysing it. _________________ Matthew Greene

As far as Animus is concerned, there is nothing special about this stone, other than it's darkness (like onyx). _________________ ________________________

"I used life sight earlier. Just now I investigated one of the stones with spirit sight, but I couldn't make out anything unusual. Then again, I missed the fact that these stones form the pentagram. Perhaps the stone in the position of spirit ... His voice trails off as his attention focuses on the stone placed where the spirit arcanum should be.

Animus gets the faintest aura of some sort of minor resonance, but he can't place exactly what it is, as opposed to the stone before, which showed nothing at all. _________________ ________________________

Blackfire is not really liking what he was going to do but what the hell.
He opens his Prime sight.

After about ten seconds of silent concentration, he shakes his head. "The stone definitely has some sort of resonance, but I couldn't quite pin it down."

He looks back across the gauntlet, attempting to discern what effects the stones are currently having in the material realm. _________________ Matthew Greene

Invictus picks a stone at random, and kneels down next to it. He opens his mouth and chants something in High Speech and pulling down Stygia to Know what the stone is.

The stone is made up of something like Onyx, but it's structure is more solid than diamond. Though Invinctus can't discern any magical properties, he's never seen anything like this before.
Animus peers across the Gauntlet, but it's almost the same as it was before, except the lack of bodies and police cars, and very few people lurking about at this time. _________________ ________________________

Animus turns to his familiar. "Guardian, try to talk to some of these spirits. See if you can find out how the stones came to be here and why the spirits are so fearful."
Animus drops Peer Across the Gauntlet and casts Spirit Tongue.

The only spirit even willing to speak is the earth beneath you.

I had hoped that they would be willing to speak to another spirit, but I will have an answer regardless. He singles out a spirit that looks likely to have been aware of its surroundings, and commands it to answer clearly and truthfully.
