You had taken a well deserved break. You sat on the mossy cobblestone, sighing as your butt hurt from the metal of your armor and the cobble. You gave your body a quick moment to regain its homeostasis, sighing as they hesitantly got off your feet.

You walked through the passage that had been opened, seeing a block man of sorts that looked remotely similar to Broque Monsieur. He noticed the three of you immediately.

"Wait, they told me that path from here was impassable! That no one could go in!" He gasps. "How in the... how did you guys come OUT from the area back there?"

Mario held up the pillow looking thing happily as Luigi did large jazz hands and you did them too, just lazily. You wanting to take a nap was an understatement. Today had been tiring from the normal patrolling the castle.

"Wow! Could that be...it?" The block man asked. You sighed, rolling to wrists as if telling him to elaborate. "The thing people whisper might be in the castle? The...treasure!" He yelled.

Mario put the pillow back as the block man stared in pure amusement and amazement. "Nobody ever even SNIFFED it! How'd you get it?! And where?!
Amazing! Just crazy!" He wouldn't give a chance for to the three of you to speak. "Well look, hey, you ought to just scoot on to our collection room!"

You sighed, the bags under your eyes feeling almost like a ton of bricks hanging below you. "That's the perfect place to display that treasure, know what I mean?" He chuckled. "Just keep going thisaway, and you'll find the collection room! Although there might be a monster or two around. Sorry about that."

You mumbled to yourself as you began to walk without the two brothers. They quickly jumped after you, smiling and talking amongst themselves in Italian. "I really don't mean to be rude, but could you kindly talk where I can hear?" You had a hearing problem from the constant explosions.

"Sorry," Mario smiled over to you, waving his hand as Luigi nodded alongside his brother. "It's just-a, we don't know you very well." His nice Italian accent made you smile inside of your head.

You nodded before walking down the stairs and to a nice, maroon carpet leading off into another room. You walk into the circular room, seeing a stature of a bird-like creature.

"Reminds me of Hylia..." you mumbled to yourself, touching the stagnant water that laid around the beautifully carved stone.

"Who?" Luigi said, looking over your shoulder. You sighed, an uncomfortable shiver going down your spine. You didn't do well with touching people either. You were like a total hermit.

"Nobody. Let's move on." You stood up and walked to the next room, one that had another maroon runway leading to it.

You walk into the room, slightly amazed by the artifacts held into the space of a room. Before you could think, your body moved on its own. You looked around, careful to not move past the velvet barriers to keep people from touching.

"So many old-looking artifacts in here..." Starlow appeared, humming softly to herself as she looked over Mario's shoulder. Luigi had began to join you in your looking, the two of you smiling softly as you looked. "What is this place?"

The tapping of round shoes had caught the attention of Mario and Starlow. They turned around, looking at the person who turned to be Broque Monsieur.

"Zis is well done!" He said, raising a pointed finger. "You bring back zee treasure from the castle depths, hohn? Incroyable! Zis is zee collection room. Oui, where we keep zee items excavated from zee island!"

"Collection room?" Starlow asked. Mario looked over to you and Luigi, watching as the two of you had to force eachother to keep your hands off the artifacts. He chuckled, turning his attention back. "This isn't just junk?"
