Onwards. They do indeed have a pilgrimage, marriage or no marriage, thunder or no thunder.

(Thunder. Lots of it.)

(Thunder is annoying and it should stop.)

(He is in the wrong place for this request.)

After a couple more fiends, a faint glow can be seen in a secluded corner, apparently attached to a stone.

"… Are glowing stones normal around here?"

"Glowing—oh," says Kaede who had not noticed it. They walk up to the rather weird... thing.

"… I'm gonna hope this isn't normal around here?"

"This in particular?"

"Hey, that looks like a cactuar!"

"What's a cactuar?"

"It's—" She screams when a lightning bolt hits a spot particularly close to them.

"It's a fiend typically found on Bikanel Island—the desert. It's... very strange to find a rock with that here."

"… What element does it typically use, or is it weak to? I mean, is it related to thunder or lightning?"

"No, it is a walking cactus."

"Cactuars aren't really fiends," Rikku says when she's recovered her voice. "They're—something else."—thunder—" Aaah! Can we talk about this away from the thunder?"

"… Is it important that it's a cactuar statue, do you think? Because if so we might want to, I dunno, check this out in some relevant way, which we can't do further away?"

"I don't know, there shouldn't be any cactuars here, they can't survive when it's this cold and wet." Thunder. "Aaaah!"

"I think I'm gonna go poke it," says Theo. "But feel free to, y'know, not."

Poke?

It feels warm-ish.

Consistently warm around or does it vary?

It varies; the light is warm.

Can he see anything behind the light if he tries looking through it?

A large rock with a cactuar on it.

So, no, okay.

"The light is warm, rest of the rock seems normal, no idea what it's for."

"Okay. Can we go now?"

He shrugs. "Sure?"
