Golbez was staring into the distance, examining the strange lights.  "What do
you suppose those lights are?"  Nobody answered.  Everybody was working on
something.  Edge was taking care of Rydia, FuSoYa was studying magic for
some kind of answer, and all of the other Lunarians that were conscious were
working on rebuilding the crystal palace and the Lunarian sleeping chambers.
Nobody had time to look at the various colors that moved about the landscape.

Long after it had disappeared, FuSoYa spoke.  "I have been studying for a long
time, now.  There is much that I have learned of magic, but recent news
baffles me."

Golbez was relieved that someone had finally spoken.  "Oh?  And what news is
that?"

FuSoYa looked at the stars and sighed.  "People say that magic is gone.  I
have seen twelve magic users from four planets and moons attempt different
spells.  Weaker spells seem to work for now, but others won't.  I'm worried
that magic is fading away."

Golbez knew that this would be a cause for concern, but proved his magic was
all right.  He waved his hands and all of the creatures within sight busrt
into fire. "My Fire3 is fine.  I think you're just imagining things."  Golbez
laughed and turned back around.

"Golbez, I'm serious.  I've heard of a few legends concerning this.  One
planet says that the center of all magic was destroyed, therefore magic is
slowly fading."

Golbez looked back at FuSoYa.  "And you believe this?  Why is our magic so
strong?  I've got ya there, haven't I!"

FuSoYa stopped reading.  "I have an answer to that.  The crystals are
independent of the statues.  The statues created them, but once they were
created, the crystals became their own source of magic.  Just don't use too
much magic; the crystals seem to be running low on magic lately."

Golbez looked up at the blue planet overhead. It had been a long time since
they had orbited it and Golbez wanted to see how it had changed.  "FuSoYa, if
I left the moon, according to your theory, I'd lose my magic?"

FuSoYa was getting tired of answering questions.  "It is only a theory, but
it does seem likely.  Are you planning on leaving?"

Golbez thought for a minute.  All of his darkest memories were from his trip
to the blue planet, when Zemus had controlled him, yet something seemed to
call him there.  "I just... wanted to look around on that planet one more
time."
