No matter what Faye Yardley asked, the system didn't reply. All she could do was punch the air in frustration.
She was completely helpless against a system that was playing dead.
She huffed in annoyance.
Faye Yardley angrily plopped down on the porch swing.
After a moment of thought, she took the mist-blue, pigeon-egg-sized object out of her backpack.
[Fog Blue Spider Egg Ore: This is an ore, but it is also an egg. It can be hatched into a Mist-Blue Spider.]
Faye Yardley held the stone up to the light, examining it closely. 'This thing is actually alive. How interesting.'
An ore that could be hatched… Of course, she couldn't figure anything out just by looking at it. She immediately called Franklin Yardley and told him to go to the lab, find Marlin, and ask if the lab was currently equipped to conduct research on ores and biological organisms. If not, she would have to find Zachary Pierce; he had a group of researchers stationed at his guild headquarters.
