iolite

[ You're in a stucco-walled white room, lit by a too-high-to-reach (no matter how hard you try!!!) skylight showing a beautiful blue sky. Unfortunately, the room has the same weird patches as the Ring all over the walls and floors...

At the center, there's a rough-hewn wooden table, some wooden chairs, and a load of pens and paper. Chesh's voice floats from all the dark patches at once. ]

You know all about filling in the blanks... give me a word for every type of word I've given you, make a few guesses, and you'll be well rewarded.

There are two that make mention of Lloyd. They are likely to be from the same team.

I believe he was on Jasper today. That's helpful.

However, one of them overlaps with one that I had thought was Sapphire. The one with "Rush 3" in the title.

Lloyd seems to be a very outgoing knight; it's not unheard of for others to mention him. If you're sure one is Sapphire, then perhaps the other is Jasper.

It is more likely to be Sapphire than Jasper, looking over it again. There is mention of a pharmacist, and Apple has offered me medicines before.

So that's three for Sapphire, leaving one more apiece for Emerald and Ruby, and none for Jasper.

Is there anyone called Cecil on either of those?

Not that I'm aware of. There was a bird on one of the teams, right?

Jasper has a bird.

I would suggest that one for them, then.

Which one? Your part is the only that uses the word "bird" explicitly.

The Devious Designers one -- it mentions elegant tail feathers, which I assume a bird would take pride in.

Oh! That does make sense.

If you have an attractive feature, there's no shame in taking pride in it.

I quite agree.

I'm glad that someone understands.

But still, what should we do with the last of the phrases?

At this point, I suspect we're stuck with just making wild guesses.

We may as well. We have the majority of them puzzled out.

Then I'll just go down the list and fill in wherever a blank is?

[nods]

That should do.

[FOR BETTER OR WORSE, IT IS DONE]
