For as far as the eye could see, there was nothing here. Nothing but pain, regret, and sadness. What then would draw someone here? What could this ancient place of war hold for one like him? Knowledge of course. There was so much the ice-wielder could learn from this place. So much he could find out about the war that raged here, and the many other events that may have occurred. Though most would be able to see it, he had a gift. A gift of extra-ordinary intelligence. With it, he could tell what had happened here, just by marks on the ground, or odd formations. Every little thing had meaning to him, and he took notes on it all.
Slowly, the blue-haired man made his was into Twister Trench. Adjusting his glasses, he examined the ground, running his hand along the groves. "I understand now where the trench got it's name." He said aloud, writing down his finding in a journal. "There must have been at least 5 twisters here at some point. Who knows what those twisters were capable of." He started to move on, but he sensed there was something happening behind him. Cautiously he turned back to investigate.

Zack looked around at the barren environment. "Sheesh. This place... it has a little bit of an ominous feel to it. Still, there might be something worth exploring here," he said to himself. He looked over at a giant trench. "Like that." He walked inside the trench. Its darkened passage began to make him feel uneasy, so he summoned Sleeping Lion. Soon after, he saw a man just a little deeper. The man was looking toward him, so Zack just gave a little smile and waved.

The man relaxed. Whoever this was, he was friendly. Calmly, he made his way over to the newcomer, curious about him. "Hello." He said, his tone unintentionally a little harsh. "Who might you be?"

Zack was a little taken aback by the harsh tone, but the man didn't seem to mean any harm, so he relaxed. "I'm Zack," he said, extending his hand for the man to shake. "Who are you?"

"Elroy Cross." He stated simply with a smile. "What might you be doing here, Zack? Though the war has long since passed, this barren land of sadness is still dangerous." He never realized what a pompous know-it-all he always sounded like on a first meet, that's just how he was.

"I'm just exploring the worlds," Zack replied, laughing a little. "Why are you here though?"

"Researching." Elroy returned, walking off and motioning him to follow. "I travel the worlds, helping those in need and learning all I can."

"Sounds like a good cause," Zack commented. He followed Elroy, curious about what he was going to show him.

Elroy knelt back down where he was and put his hand at the edge of one of the grooves. "See these? You can tell where something tore through here. Judging by the name and number of grooves, we can guess that there used to be five or six twisters here."

Zack knelt down to examine them as well. "Do you think twisters are common here?" he asked.

"No." Elroy said with a smile. "Weather conditions aren't right. Which tells you what, Zack?" Of course, he already knew the answer, he just wanted to see if he did.

Zack thought about it a little. "The twisters were caused by some other force. They weren't natural. Possibly... darkness?" Zack guessed, thinking it might be a long shot.

"Correct." The blue-haired hand said, standing up and adjusting his glasses. "The dreaded twisters that once rages through here were created from Darkness. And by one man from the Silverlake family. I don't know if she still survives or the Darkness has killed her too, but there is one member of that family supposedly still alive."

Zack's eyes widened a little. "Kaylee!" he said. "She had told me about her brother Terra. Do you think it was him that caused the twisters?"

"No. I don't think it was Terra. Perhaps their father." The blue-haired man said with a smile. "But yes, I do refer to Kaylee. You know her I'm guessing?"
