A Broken Lantern

Hmm, there are a few Pixie Dust Orbs flying around the area. They seem to be casting shadows on the wall, but that’s not what you saw when you first entered. At least that’s not all that you saw.

Continue looking around the inside of Skull Rock. A broken lantern is buried in the sands. Hmm. perhaps this can be used to catch the Pixie Dust Orbs. They are sure to come in handy.

Trapping a Shadow

As the light hits the wall, a moving Shadow flies by. Ah, this is progress.
