Have you tried doing anything with one of those shells?
[Oh? That's a curious pivot.] You mean the ones to contact Lobelia? A few times, if it isn't worth finding him in person. I keep it in a drawer in the boarding house room.
He told me after Amaya died that these shells are incapable of recording sound. They won't be able to store anything...but they may be used to pass sound regularly, as a communication device.
[So if people are in two places at once to explore, or if they find something else capable of recording... Both are inelegant solutions, but she believes in making the most use out of the technology they have.]

[Certainly possible if they all connect together, and it may be easier for Lobelia than Y'shtola.]
Yes, I think that staying in touch will only benefit us, especially as we're trekking into parts unknown. We can't all go into the museum, even if it deigns to open its doors, but why let a morsel walk into the belly of the beast without teeth?

Have any of them talked about how they got there?
