Aurora found a wide open spot on the bow, where she could keep an eye on the boatman's men moving about loading supplies and the odd little old guy meticulously painting the name of the ship on the side.  She sat down and started thinking about what it was she wanted to do, what would be the best way to find out how she could fully sate her swords and bring them to their full power.  She wondered if perhaps she might be able to siphon some darkness off of Shoal, perhaps if she could reverse engineer the crystal the Elder had given her, or better yet, improve it so that it could siphon as well as direct the stored power into the swords, perhaps it could already do both and she just didn't know how to utilize it that way.  Perhaps her Djinn knew something, it couldn't hurt to ask.  She fished out the bottle holding her Djinn and pulled off the stopper.<br/><br/>"I don't suppose you know what the crystal in this necklace" she held out the crystal, "is made of?  Or what its full capabilities are?"
