Onward to Zanarkand? [audio]
[After being carelessly dropped against the wooden floor, the video flickers on with bits of static filtering into it. However, any onlooker wouldn't be too impressed with the video of this message since the sky phone is tilted towards the ceiling of this modest little shack.]
Honestly, where did I put that map? [Doesn't this man sound vaguely familiar to you? Without that phony Rozarrian accent, dear ol' Doctor Cidolfus could he heard fishing about within his study in search of that said map. Between a few curses and swears based upon the Holy Father's name until he finally finds it.]
Ah, so I didn't lose it after all. Fate must be smiling upon me.
[A rustle or two could be heard here and there as he unfurled the map.]
There! This map truly does lead to Zanarkand's Ruins but I wonder if that treasure the moogle spoke of is real. I would be a fool to head there on my own but I cannot pass up such adventure.
I wonder, what truly lies there? Probably fiends. I doubt there is anything worth treasure in Zanarkand, but then again…perhaps I could find another piece of stone like this one.
[The audio goes quiet here but only for a few seconds before the doctor lets out an sigh.]
Auracite, was it? More like a mere trinket if you were to ask me, milord. This thing is useless; it cannot recharge itself like the nethicite, so its powers drain quite easily. However, he did state that he figured the auracite to similar to nethicite in some ways…
[The audio times out with the doctor muttering to himself, all too low to be captured by the sky phone’s recording.]

[voice]
W-who's there!?
[voice]
[Searching for the origins of this voice, the doctor nearly steps upon his sky phone with a loud 'CRUNCH'.] O' dearest me, if this damned thing broke--[The audio goes dead for a few minutes before clicking on once more.]
Ah, I think it works now. [Ahem] What is it you want, Larsa? You usually don't make social calls.
[voice - filitered line]
So I take you heard all that, little emperor? [Groans!] I hate these blasted phones!
[Grumbling something about the lack of privacy, the doctor finally gets on cue.]
Yes, yes. I spoke of auracite, but why the interest? Its a useless stone, one that seems to be a remnant of your brother's fondness for research. It was Vayne who given it to me.
[voice - filitered line]
I suppose my days a researcher might be numbered if I cannot solve such a riddle now.
[voice - filitered line]
[Taking a moment to glance at the useless stone, Cidolfus finally gives his answer to the young chemist.]
Suit yourself! I'll send it to Narshe right away.
[voice - filitered line]
I hope you'll be more prosperous than I.
