[OOC:] Sure. Madden was examining a painting on one of the walls, that had been chipped and worn away before their test. It was...strange to say the least. And reminded her of the tablet outside that she and Kuro had shared a kiss over.

Kuro smiled some, looking over Madden's shoulder at what she was looking at. "What is it Madden?" he asked, gently grabbing one of her hands and looking to the painting as well.

Madden shrugged and smiled over her shoulder at Kuro. "Not sure. I think it has something to do with the tablet outside, though."

Kuro looked to the painting, thinking back to the tablet. "Should we go back and try to read it?" he asked, kissing her cheek.

"Sure," she responded, smiling at Kuro and taking his hand. She led him out of the temple and to the tablet, which now stood upright as though it were a sign. It also had translations standing beside it in a couple different languages, including theirs.

Kuro was surprised to find the tablet repaired and standing. But it had also been translated. Was it from their 'test' from earlier? "It seems... This temple was built for two gods who fell in love. Coincidentally both were love gods."

Madden tilted her head and finished reading the love story of the two gods. "The other gods, in doubting the two, decided to test them to see if their love was true. The test was impossible, though, and they failed. They were forced to repeat it over and over again, only to be free when they finally succeeded." She frowned. "It doesn't say if they ever did succeed."

Kuro thought some. Then it hit him, though he didn't believe. "What did that lady say? That we passed some sort of test or something?" he asked, looking to Madden over his shoulder.

Madden nodded slowly. "Mhm, she said that. Then the temple restored itself... she shook her head, convinced there was no way...

Kuro got to his feet, brushing himself off. "Let's head on to our next stop, shall we?" he asked, smiling. Their carriage was still there, Kuro having let the driver go back. He could drive a carriage. How hard could it be?

Madden nodded, shaking her head and smiling. The horses at the carriage were falling asleep, having been napping while they explored. She pet their snouts, waiting for Kuro to figure out what he was doing. "Take it easy on him, all right guys?" she whispered to the horses.

Kuro smiled and opened the carriage door for Madden. Once she was inside, he climbed up to the top of the carriage and started the horses off. Well so far so good. And Kuro drove them across the countryside, taking in all the view until it was dusk, them reaching the next set of ruins. "We're here."

Madden hopped out, waiting for Kuro. She took in the ruins, and had the feeling she'd been there before. She didn't know why, though.
