                            -The group stare at him in wonderment at this statement...-

Jade then asks "So you can't go? Don't you have soldiers or weapons?", Stryx replies "Yes, the knight academy I mentioned DOES have trained-fighters: in spite of how peaceful Eden is. But our knights mostly fend off against creatures from below or sometimes above... both have always had vile-intentions for Eden; we only fight because we have to, not because we can. This is why we never looked for something we don't necessarily need to pray to the Almighty.". Percival glared "So you're saying there's no progress made unless needed: therefore, where your ancestors WERE praying and their means of sacrifice are probably un-recorded and there's no way you or anybody else would be able to find out, because you're too soft to go into the overgrown forest area?" he asks angrily, the Engle-professor replied "Yes... though, you seem upset about this? I understand your position, but there are ways to find out how.". Lancelot smirked "Yeah, chillout Percy!" he says, then looked at Stryx and asks "How DO we find out how ta talk to th' Big Guy?". The professor explains "You'll have to research it in our library: as of now, we should have some hint of what happened before. But most books are filled with current instructions, information and stories: there's no need for a religious or spiritual-section, because of our way of life, so...", Lancelot frowned, Percival scoffed too... Ron then says "So... we'll have to find out ourselves, right? You're saying that there IS a way for us, our race to contact Him. But we'll have to find out how your ancestors did, so we can too?". Stryx replied "Yes, that's exactly it: there are some elder-people here they might remember by word-of-mouth via their parents. But my generation... no sorry, even from my parents' generation: nobody has any idea how to contact the Father through anything else, except normal talking. Whatever our ancestor's used or sacrificed is long lost and forgotten...".. Some of the group stares in awe still, while others are annoyed at hearing this...

Stryx stands as he finished "As I said, the library would help. As will seeing who else would know about the past. Me myself, I'm more of a Zoologist: I couldn't help you anymore in this area. But there ARE many other professors in the academy... I only beg that you don't go into the deeper-part of the garden.. Good day, I must get back to work." he gives a slight-bow and leaves... Lancelot scoffed "That wassa waste of time!", Gawain smiles at him "Now wait, don't you feel like we're being unfair here? We're the ones coming into their home, drawing blades and expect service!" he explains. The other-two men scoff and shrug... Jade then adds "Gawain's right: Stryx and his answer were annoying, but we came here because we screwed up, we can't get too angry...", she then stands and orders: "Now let's split-up and search!"
