Shiva gently nudges Spira and whispers a questioning and worried "Does that mean that, whatever is BEHIND that door and possibly with the Artifact, is even more scary and dangerous than this Cofagrigus?" to him. Cold shiver run down her spine at the though of WHAT it could possibly be, ugh.

Spira shrugs; "It's highly possible." he cracks his knuckles, "But if it comes to a fight, I'm sure we can handle it!"

She faces the spectral coffin once more, the fire and determination within her eyes rekindle. "Noble Cofagrigus, what would you say if we all...would challenge whatever lurks behind the door?"

In response he opens one spectral palm, face upward, revealing one golden key. He quickly puts it away again, waiting for you to fulfill your end of the bargain.

To say Terra was surprised by Shiva's response was an understatement - he was visibly taken aback by it, caught completely off guard as he instinctual took a half step back and looked at her with a wide eye, dulled gaze. He had known that the mystical lass had been growing increasingly confidant and brave over the course of her journey, and had seen her demonstrate such improved qualities on multiple occasions, but.....not to the extent displayed right in front of him now. Were it any other person suggesting what she did, he'd consider them reckless or brazen fool (As one does not openly challenge something as dangerous looking as that Coffin Ghost and their cohorts), but from her....

The sagely monk couldn't help but smile a moment later, and let out a light chuckle.

"Heh.....bold spirit. Happy to see that, and you becoming so fierce. Very happy and proud to see such......improvement, Shiva." (...)

In respone to the spectral coffin, Shiva gasps sharply as they reveal a single golden key, she immediately understands that this one is holding some highly significant meaning and importance. Which this is in particular, she's innocent about though, but one thing is as certain as the creepyness of the Odd Keystone: Shiva wants to obtain and earn this golden key, regardless the cost. Regal Reshiram knows what secrets lie behind the door that matches this key!!! "Noble Cofagrigus, leader and caretaker of this Fossil Garden....", she adresses them reverently, "Are you telling us that if we deal with WHATEVER is behind the door down the path *points to it*, you'll let us have this key, yes? No tricks or lying on that?"

In response to the spectral breeder, the fire and willpower dormant within her starts to flare up even more fiercely. THAT is the determination and encouragement Shiva wants to see! "You.... You're right, I'm all willing for a good fight against the Ominous and Unknown!" Senpai's so cool!

In response to the mountain of a man, Shiva's pretty startled at first as he backs off of her, fearing that she said something innacceptable without realizing it. But just as her inner voice atarts to scold her for her mistake, Terra smiles and chuckles, which causes her give him a confused look. His words of praise however - they make her blush faintly and lightly punch his massive shoulder as if to say 'Stop flattering me like this, you...!' (>///<) Still, she gets the feeling that Ventus would be proud and impressed by his fae fancy if he'd be to see her now.
