  “What are you doing?!”

  The bat turned around at the sharp question, spotting the island guardian standing primed to strike. He must have thought she was looking for the Emerald -- which, to be fair, she wouldn’t mind seeing.

  Knuckles raised an eyebrow, not dropping his posture. Giving up, Rouge walked to one side of the rock face she had been observing and pointed, tracing her finger along a convex curve of the rock layers, visible off the side of the mountain.

  “ᔕᕮᕮ, Tᕼᕮ... I ᗪO ᑎOT KᑎOᗯ Tᕼᕮ ᕮᑎGᒪIᔕᕼ ᗯOᖇᗪ, I ᗩᑭOᒪOGIᘔᕮ, ᗷᑌT Tᕼᕮ ᗷᕮᑎᗪ ᕼᕮᖇᕮ ᗩᒪᒪOᗯᔕ ᗰᕮ TO ᔕᕮᕮ Tᕼᕮ ᖇOᑕK ᒪᗩYᕮᖇᔕ TᕼᗩT ᗩᖇᕮ Oᒪᗪᕮᖇ ᗯITᕼOᑌT ᗷᕮIᑎG ᖴOᖇᑕᕮᗪ TO ᗪIG TO ᖇᕮᗩᑕᕼ Tᕼᕮᗰ. I ᗯᗩᔕ ᑕᑌᖇIOᑌᔕ Iᖴ I ᑕOᑌᒪᗪ ᗪᕮTᕮᖇᗰIᑎᕮ ᗯᕼᗩT YOᑌᖇ Iᔕᒪᗩᑎᗪ ᗯᗩᔕ ᗷᕮᖴOᖇᕮ Tᕼᕮ ᗰᗩᔕTᕮᖇ ᕮᗰᕮᖇᗩᒪᗪ ᑕᗩᑌᔕᕮᗪ IT TO ᖴᒪY.”

  By now the echidna was no longer hostile and now actually rather perplexed looking, walking to the cliff-side before kneeling down and looking carefully at the lowest visible layer.

  “...Did you get an answer?”
