The two undead start ascending the maze-like library after their short rest, with most enemies already being eliminated the only difficult part is trying to find where they actually need to go... With the many revolving staircases leading to many different floors, door and dead ends it takes Reima and Solaire around three hours to reach the top where a Crystal hollow waits to shoot arrows at them. One lightning bolt later and the two spot the ladder on the side of the platform and slide down it, entering the secret room holding what seems to be many important documents as well as the switch to open the book case shortcut.

Solaire opens the shortcut while Reima checks the many chests lying around the room, one containing the Crystal Ember, while Reima doesn't think he'll ever need to enchant a weapon with this particular ember due to having a sorcerery that already does that maybe it'll be helpful for others? Crystal weaponry could theoretically increase someones magically capability, this is shown when Logan is corrupted by Crystal in the game and his staff is "upgraded" by being enveloped by Crystals. Reima gives the final suspicious looking chest a kick which makes it shudder and jump into action, this definitely isn't the first mimic Reima has killed so he immediately thrusts Arcell into it's mouth, piercing something important as it starts fading away and leaves an enchanted falchion for his troubles.

Reima looks around the room and spots another switch sitting next to a weird part of the floor, metal instead of wooden planks. He pulls it and the metal separates revealing an intricate staircase held together by some sort of mechanism, if only they had continued making technology like this, maybe they'd have found a solution to the fading fire that doesn't include burning your self to death. They walk down the steps, killing the lone Crystal hollow attempting to ambush them, half the room is entirely taken by huge mechanical gears and machinery giving Reima strong steampunk vibes due to the large brass gears. He opens the chest directly underneath the stairs and finds a large amount of Prism stones, he groans when he remembers what these are for, the only other part of Dark Souls he might hate more than Blight Town is that bloody Crystal cave... Invisible platforms that are hard enough to spot with the assistance of the falling particles, he hopes that he'll be able to traverse it a lot easier with his teleportation capabilities.

Solaire walks through the Fog-Gate and Reima follows, they end up on a raised platform that overlooks a large forest, with a huge cave entrance on the far end completely covered in Crystals. Reima's Medallion shakes violently for a moment before going silent... Perhaps it overloaded on the ambient magic present? You'd deffinitely never encounter such a place back in the Witcher world. Numerous Crystal Golem's are scattered throughout the forest, some hiding, some resting and some throwing themselves against tree's, rocks and the floor. Reima spots a glint of gold in his vision, when he focuses on it he sees a larger than normal Golden Crystal Golem... Is there something important inside of it? He'll have to check, no point leaving something important behind because he's feeling lazy.


Reima nudges Solaire's shoulder to get his attention, "Yo, you see that?" He points to the Gold Crystal Golem, He nods "Yes, is there something special about it, aside from it's colouration?"

Reima "There is, but we'll have to destroy it to find out." He climbs onto the nearby ladder and starts sliding to the grassy ground below, quickly followed by Solaire.

Once they reach the ground they are immediately noticed by a nearby Crystal Golem, Reima throws a fireball at it which causes the being to ignite and start rolling around on the ground in attempt to extinguish the flames. Their apparent weakness to fire is probably the most amusing thing about these creatures, Reima wonders why the entire Crystal cave hasn't gone up in flames if these things are so flammable? He knows his Crystal Soul spears aren't flammable but that's probably because they're so condensed... Perhaps if the Crystal is dense enough it's not likely to catch fire. He's drawn out of his thoughts by a glare from Solaire who seems annoyed at him day dreaming "again".

They slowly make their way through the forest towards the Golden Golem, taking out the nearby enemies efficiently, one by one. Reima is pretty good in these forest conditions, his experience back in Absolver assassinating the Bird Callers tribe means that he's got more than enough familiarity to make up for Solaire's bumbling steps, eventually the make it their objective, instead of the 8ft regular blue crystal golems this one is 15ft and slightly wider than it's brethren. The Sunbro's nod to each other, knowing the plan instinctively due to them doing it so many times in the past, they charge up their respective range attacks and launch them at the enemy before splitting up to flank the now enraged creature. The lightning from Solaire impacts it's body but Crystals don't seem very conductive as it only takes a chunk out of it's chest, Reima's Crystal Soul spear however blasted it's arm off like it was glass. Solaire remembering the previous Golden Golem's lethal shards raises his shield in time to prevent being blinded by the wayward shards. After blocking he grabs the blade of his sword to use a technque called "half-swording", he uses the blade as a handle and slams the pommel of the blade like a hammer into it's knee, the attack crushes it which causes it to fall to the floor. Reima isn't idle as he dashes forward and delivers a harsh Haki infused kick to it's downed head, the blow proves fatal as it's entire body falls apart and to the floor in a rather unspectacular manner... That is until they see a figure stand up from the rubble, their familiar Onion armour looking as pristine as ever.
