You turn toward the sound of a chuckle only to find Nynor standing alone. He looks pleased for some reason.

"Hey, you."

You obey his beckoning finger.

"I was thinking, I can't keep asking you to run off and speak with the Giga Crystal every time I have a question. It'd be better if I could speak with it myself, right? Well, I think I've found a way!"

"The Giga Crystal might share similar elements with the Spatial Crystal Spider and the Time Formed Crystal King, Odin.

Grinding up and consuming their crystals could grant me the ability to communicate! Well, in theory, that is." Nynor smiles optimistically.

"Hurry and bring me some so I can test it out!"

Nynor begins pondering how best to process the crystals. "Hmm...

Breaking them into smaller pieces should make them easier to grind up, right...?"

Now, where have you heard of this method before?

"Finally, you're back! Thanks!"

Without further ado, Nynor grinds up the crystals and downs the powder.

A few moments pass with baited breath when suddenly ....

"Urgh!"

"M-my stomach... Guess that didn't work!"

Nynor clutches his tummy and retreats inside his house.
