[Roll of 1 versus roll of 8, critical success for Rikku, success for
resistance, minor victory]

Rikku's eye take on a thousand-yard stare... "The normal runes of the
Eastern people are not abound here... Strange, I see many runes of
Mostal The Maker. Indeed that is dominant. You, me, us.. We are all
carrying the rune of Mostal!"

"But the other runes here are old, unrefined. The tower of the general
carries the cross, the rune of the sword, of death, and of mastery. That
howling tower has spirit and magic. Almost redundant."

Then Rikku's face drains of blood.

"Interesting", he says, with a stutter. That runes of that fabric,
they're draconic. But the gap... Nothing."

"No, I really mean nothing. Darkness I could understand. Even, although
it would be cause for alarm, Chaos. But there is *nothing* there."

"I haven't ever seen anything like it."
