🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

Today, the alien artifact brought Erika some luck (?). She met not one, but two women – both of whom she knew: these were Etto and Snafghoria from "Mania of Research."

Oh yeah, damn... well, "lucky"... but what good is this luck? - Erika would think, if she were a Jerboa...

Still at a reasonable distance from the women, Erika quietly whispered to the mushroom, "Jack, look around carefully. Maybe you'll notice something unusual and/or interesting."

Then she approached closer.
"Good evening," Erika greeted.
"Is this thing still proving difficult to decipher its 'secret'? Or are there any developments?"
