Eliza grinned walking onto the second floor of Chronos castle. She wanted to explore a bit more and find more to help with. She been playing the whole time she was there, cleaning floors and moving debris and while other's might not think it to be fun Eliza made it as such.
There was a big room right in the middle and Eliza decided that was the room she would start with. Pushing the door open her jaw dropped. There were pedestals that had things on them, but a few were knocked over there trinkets on the floor. Eliza eyes were wide as she looked around and she wondered what it was that she had found.
It seemed to be some sort of treasure room. Eliza grinned, eyes shining and stepping into the room. She lifted the hem of the dress she wore to walk across the floor not wanting to dirty it. The white and gold dress had been found in a bedroom at Leo and made her look quite elegant as if she belonged here. Unfortunately her hair which she hadn't deemed necessary to brush since she put the dress on, no longer fell in elegant waves, but stuck off wildly in very which direction, tendrils of straight hair and random curls falling over her shoulders.
"Wow," she said softly before attempting to right a fallen pedestal.

Valhalla hadn't been to Chronos's Outpost yet. In fact, he hadn't been outside of Virgo's place. He'd been taking care of the injured, but now that it seemed as though there were enough people helping out, well, he was basically out of a job. For now, at least, because with so many civilians around, he doubted there wouldn't be any injuries.
But for now, he'd taken to trying to explore a little. The castle was beautiful and Valhalla had already been distracted by the intricate architecture of the place, and he wished he would have brought his sketch book with him, if just to jot down notes about how things were constructed. Unfortunately, if that sketch book fell into the wrong hands... well, he didn't want to run the risk of having outsiders find out about such a place, even if he could probably claim that he'd come up with the ideas on his own, if just to protect them.
He'd made his way up a fight of stairs and barely saw a girl go into one of the rooms ahead. Thinking it might be one of the Zodiacs, he quickly followed and upon entering the room, he had more or less the same reaction she'd had.
"Wow... what is all this...?" he said out loud, knowing the girl could hear him. It appeared as though she was just another civilian, though. With the gown she was wearing he'd though she might be someone else, but no... Not that it really mattered.

Eliza turned at the voice gazing over the other that walked in with her crystal blue eyes. He was definitely not a civilian, not dressed as he was. "It looks like some sort of treasure hall," she said softly still attempting to right the pedestal.
She looked to him again,"could you help me with this one. It fell over and I bet Chronos would be happy if we sat it back up. Not to mention I think the trinket just there goes on here. Do you see it? It probably rolled away when it fell."
Eliza probably looked rather silly dressed in gown of white and gold trying to lift a pedestal that was just a bit to heavy for her. Still that would not stop her, she did not think that Chronos would want her beautiful treasure on the floor.

A treasure hall was definitely a good way to describe it. Or at least he didn't know how else to explain what it was.
"Yeah, here..." he said, making his way over to her to help her get the pedestal up. It wasn't much problem for him, but he was used to lifting weights and Eliza didn't seem to be a heavy weight champion of Destiny City. He made sure to keep a hold of it as it was righted, letting the girl turn it if she wanted. He was just trying to get it to stop from falling again.
"Do you, uh... usually dress like that?" he half joked, looking around for what could have been on the pedestal, expecting it to probably be in pieces, depending on how it had been knocked down and how long it had been sitting there. "I'm Valhalla, by the way," he introduced, pausing to be able to hold a hand out to the girl to shake. It was only polite, after all.

Eliza turned the pedestal until the name plaque was facing forward. She looked closer at the plaque reaching out to wipe it off. "I found this dress in a wardrobe in Leo's castle. I can't wear the same thing everyday and it seemed right to wear the clothes. I don't know I feel like I'm really suppose to be here in them."
The whole time she spoke she did not look at Valhalla, instead at the plaque which she swore had words be she couldn't read. She wiped it once more with her fingers. "I'm Eliza, nice to meet you .. uh can you see what is written here. I can't quite make it out and I don't want to wipe it clean with this dress, doesn't seemed like a very polite thing to do."
Eliza stood turning and smiling at Valhalla only just then realizing his hand was extended to her, she took it but she did not shake. Instead she gave a curtsy, crystal blue eyes shining with amusement.

Valhalla stared at the girl as she curtsied to him, before smiling in amusement. When in Rome, right...? As for the plaque with the missing item...
He moved closer to it, using his tunic to try and rub off some of the dust. "It looks all scratched up," he mumbled to himself, glancing up and looking around at the other 'treasures' around the room. "I don't even see what used to be on this..." It might have been moved or just... knocked around so much that it got lost. Who knew! There was so much stuff around the room that anything was possible.
While he was trying to decipher the plaque though, something else caught his eye, and Valhalla glanced up at what looked like a wooden box sitting not too far. "Huh, look at this thing... If whatever was on this," he motioned to the pedestal that had been knocked over, "Had as much glass as this thing, it's probably in pieces somewhere..."
The page moved around the one that had been picked up to see the box a little closer, blinking in surprise at the name that could be clearly read on the plaque. "Maia... I know her... At least the present day Maia," he explained, glancing over at Eliza in excitement. "I wonder what it is..."

Eliza frowned at the thought that it couldn't be read and tried to find what may have possible been sitting on it, but just as Valhalla hadn't been able to decipher what could have once sat there neither could Eliza.
She turned when she told her to look at what appeared to be a box and walked over. He was right it had a lot of glass on it or maybe it wasn't glass, "Wow, it very pretty and it glowing." She reached out to touch the box and her face made a surprised oh look. "Its wood, it's silver and shiny and glowing but its wood."
The box was enchanting and as well extremely confusing to Eliza, she'd never seen a music box that couldn't possible have batteries glow, hell she'd never seen one glow period. "Do you think you can open it?"
*Remember its locked, it has to be unlocked like a puzzle*

Valhalla frowned curiously at the object, turning it around in his hands. "I'm... not really sure if it can be opened... I don't see any latch..."
Either way, he gently tugged on the box, wondering if he should just call for Maia to see instead of him trying to open it and maybe break it. That would suck. What would he tell her, then?? Oh, sorry... I broke something that your past self might have given to the Zodiacs as a gift. Or something along those lines.
He wasn't really sure how it was managing to glow, but he would agree in that it was enchanting. "That's magic for you," he said with a small frown, getting a little frustrated that he couldn't figure out if it opened or not.
"Here, you wanna try?" he asked, offering it to Eliza to test out.

Eliza grinned at the magic comment and gently took the box when it was offered. She held it closely to her face examining it. "It's so pretty and it looks so delicate. I bet it only survived so long because of the magic."
She pulled the thing close to her and tried to pry it open, failing as it was hard to get a grip on the lid. She frowned, "I wonder if its just a pretty box. Do you think she would just give her a pretty boy."
She held the box up again looking it over before spying the ruins, "Oh look, its got strange writing on it. Can you read it?"

"She's the Senshi of Music," he explained rather fondly as he watched Eliza look over the box. "I bet it has something to do with that... Or maybe not," he added with a small shrug.
"The Valhalla of the past gave the Zodiacs some kind of astronomy based map or star chart... or something like that. I'm not really sure what maps have to do with Valhalla, but... I'm guessing this is probably something to do with music."
Not that he knew for sure, but... it was an educated guess.
He shook his head lightly after squinting carefully at the runes. "No... I don't think I can..." he mumbled, "Maybe if you put it near your ear, you'll hear something?" He couldn't help but laugh at his own suggestion, not thinking it would do something like that.
