they will shake their heads and wag their fingers
by daybreak we'll be gone
Rexanna's statement was met with a nod and a laugh as Bastien briefly looked back to her. "Yes. I feel like an ancient hero uncovering secrets of the Gods!" Well, maybe that was a little dramatic, but he'd always been prone to covering anything that happened with fanciful imagination. Life was just far more exciting that way.Kneeling by a battered box on the ground, the wood on it rotting away at the edges, Bastien gently reached out to flip the top open, revealing something that at first made him gasp, shocked; a glint of gold, just like he'd said, on a goblet inscribed with swirling patterns. "Cazzo santo!! It really is the Holy Grail...!" This was said mostly quietly to himself as he picked up the goblet (revealing another beneath it) and turned it in his hands.
Further inspection made it obvious the cup was actually made of something much cheaper and lighter; still he was pleased they had found anything at all and handed the two cups up to Ronin and Rexanna to look over as he dug further into the box. Other than scraps of unidentifiable fabric and dirt, there didn't seem to be much. "It is a humble treasure, but a treasure nonetheless my friends, ah?"
BASTIEN
