"O-oh." Iist bowed to the Djinn. "Thanks."

She picked up the bottles again, feeling the bottles and keys. Her face was perplexed, trying to think of how they translated to her surroundings. "So there's a soft bottle, a light bottle, and a bottle that is between the two..." She then looked at the keys. "And there's a cold, strangling key, a warm and prickling key, and an ice cold key that doesn't feel like anything at all."

She tilted her head. "I mean, if in terms of weather, cold would kill the plants, no? And the bottle didn't feel like anything special." She looked at the two other bottles that had the prickling and the strangling sensations. "On the other hand, the prickling feeling felt like something illusory, a feeling that I don't think any real object would give me. The strangling key...I'm sure vines or something could strangle me, but its more of a physical feeling." She sighed. "I don't see how the smoothness or lightness of the bottles relate...or how these things are illusions. The temple's illusion seems so different."

She looked down, feeling sullen. "Am I thinking about this too hard?"

"The illusion would pulsate is what your spirit is getting at." the Djinn spoke up.

"Pulsations?" She felt the keys again, assessing how they made her fingers feel. "I suppose the strangling key would make something pulsate rather than the prickling key." She tilted her head. "Pulsations are much different than these keys..."

She turned to the Believe bottle, which had the cold key and no feeling at all. "But then again, if something really cold were to come to the living things in this temple, wouldn't they stop pulsating..?"

"Did i say you couldn't move them?" she mused, touching her bandanna as she thought about it. Connie opened her mouth, closed it, waited for a second before adding, "if the illusions are least strong where you rest, it wouldn't drain your energy, Djinn."

Iist looked at the Djinn. "I wouldn't think to take them out of this room, if that's what you mean. But...I wouldn't think that shattering them would harm you or affect you or anything."

Her eyes glanced towards the vines and lilies in the room. "Draining energy...I'd imagine being strangled would drain one's energy, that or being frozen cold..."

Connie looked at the Djinn, "Should I give her the answer?"

_{(This is now your choice. Would you like the answer or to keep on trying? i've ran out of hints to give you but can run you through everything again that i've said after the feelings of the bottles)}

((Sorry, I'm utterly hopeless with riddles LOL. Lemme see:

Dream bottle: lightest in weight
Love bottle: softest/smoothest
Believe bottle: weighs same as love, feels like dream

Dream key: cold, strangling
Love key: warmest, prickly/stabbing
Believe key: coldest, no feeling

-one is an illusion, other two aren't
-bottles have to do with the environment in the room
-Cannot shatter/open them other than using the key.
-Pulsating plants in the room, pulsating is the temple illusion
-Can't move the bottles
-Illusions aren't as strong in the room compared to outside

Did I miss anything? I'm mainly confused on how the clues relate to each other. ;w; ))

(You can move the bottles as long as you do not shatter them. The steps/ dome the Djinn was in with the table the bottles are on nothing is pulsating, while everything else is. All illusions the other pulsate, however none of the bottles are. The illusions are not strong in the dome only.)

((I...don't get how everything connects, but I don't want to ask for the answer either. ;w; The bottles seem so unrelated to the other illusion. Is there a penalty for having my spirit help me more?))

(It's not the answer as such, but you may find it helpful. You must get the illusion bottle to pulsate you will not claim as much loyalty if your Spirit helps too much. You can highlight the white to see what you need to do, but not how to do it.)
