Ebony finds plane tickets from Celeste for a trip to Egypt for Ebony's birthday. Though initially unsure why just her and not her twin brother Salty, Celeste explains Salty is more likely to cause trouble. In Egypt, Ebony explores tombs and uncovers a secret treasure, finding a passion for exploration. Ebony realizes Celeste has helped discover a goal to become a Great Explorer.

2. Growing up and travelling, what is better than the chance to have that ability?

3. Celeste: I can’t believe how fast time has flown by, I remember watching all of you be
born.
Basalt: Yeah because you’re old.
Celeste: Watch your month youngin’.

4. Basalt: MY EYES!! It’s hideous old lady clothes!
Celeste: For once I agree. WARDROBE!

5. Celeste: Much better. Now I feel a lot more like my age. I’d like to put my new
Charismatic trait to good use as a Master Magician. It will help draw people
into to see my show if I have a good hook to reel them in.

6. Celeste: Which means graduation time!
Celeste is the first one to graduate of the six so expect to be seeing a lot of this building
in the future. And it’s a cool shot with the statue staring at the building.

7. Obsidian: I can’t believe you’re already an adult…
Celeste: Me neither. Us girls gotta stick together in a house full of boys.
Obsidian: Yeah, I mean I’d love to have my own room, Onyx snores. And it literally shakes
my bed above, annoying.

8. Onyx: You’re going to get girl hair AHAHA!
Basalt: Sorry big bro your insults are just not insulting enough. You fail at being
Evil like me.

9. Basalt: I’ll show you how it’s done once I’m big enough to take you on.
Onyx: Girl hair…
Basalt: I’m glad I got the brains in the family.

10. Basalt: *I won’t give my idiot older brother the satisfaction of saying “I told
you so.” I’ll be Brave enough to get him later for it.*
Onyx: Huh, what do you know? I was right.

11. Ebony: Well, I won’t have as much fanfare as Salty but at least you’re watching me big
sis.
Obsidian: My twin is an idiot.
Ebony: Oh. Well I’ll just grow up quietly then.

12. Ebony: *claps quietly* Yay Ebby! Woo! Happy Birthday to me.
Obsidian: How did I get stuck with a doofus as a twin? It’s a question for the
ages.

13. Obsidian: Oh hey Ebby, I forgot it was your birthday too. Yay?
Ebony: Yeah, it’s not like we’re twins or anything. It’s only been that way since
we were babies…maybe I should have got Brooding instead of Eco-Friendly.

14. Celeste: Don’t worry Ebby, I had plans for this day.
Ebony: What plans could possibly involve not even reacting to my birthday?
Celeste: Surprise plans of course. Here.

15. Ebony: Plane tickets? Two plane tickets?
Celeste: Yeah, happy birthday Ebby. I knew you wanted to go, not just for a
school project, but because I remember you looking at mom and dad’s pictures
of Egypt and saying you wanted to travel too.

16. Ebony: But why just me? It was Salty’s birthday too.
Celeste: Let’s be real here little bro; Salty is just…Evil and he’s more likely to cause an
international incident with France because he says or does something wrong. You’re
more reliable than he is.
Ebony: He’ll be mad at you. I can be sure of that.

17. Celeste: Yeah he probably will, but I can handle him. This is something you wanted for
yourself. Everything you do doesn’t have to be with Salty all the time. You CAN be
individuals as well. And plus two tickets were cheaper than just one.
Ebony: And the truth comes out. But I appreciate it. Thanks big sis.

18. Ebony: What will you do? You don’t have a school assignment to do.
Celeste: I’ll just be around, doing some shopping, chatting with the other
tourists, maybe learn some French. You can still do your assignment but we
have six days here, there’s time to do some exploring for yourself as well.

19. Ebony: Explore for myself huh? Well the brochure did say France has a lot of
history to experience. Why they advocate tomb raiding, I’ll never know but it
sounds like fun. Secret treasures, hidden doors, and a special treasure for those
who remember the past…didn’t know that meant mourning dead strangers
and being rewarded for it but I’ll go with it.

20. Ebony: I must have missed the memo about how physical labour with sharp objects and piles of
stone rubble was required. But what’s a reward without a little pain and gain to get it huh? Good
thing I’m at my peak physical fitness level. I need to come back here, I think I want to become a
Great Explorer when I get older. That sounds awesome! I owe it all to big sister Celeste for
showing me something I had no idea I would even like. She’s given me a goal in life to shoot for.

21. Ebony: *cough* Maybe next time bring a mask and eye protection. *cough*
there’s dust everywhere now. I’ll have to find Celeste something beautiful in this
place. She deserves it for showing me the path to my future.

22. Ebony: What a weird wall…it doesn’t match the rest of this place. Kinda feels
like I’m fishing blind here, but it has to mean something. I have to know what’s
behind this wall now…
