"Ummm…. I think this stuff started happening when the priests put that monument of Ave María in the plaza four days ago. She was very pretty with that shiny, glowing, green, square jewel in her crown. Are you going to visit her, Mister?"

"Green stone, eh? Yes, I think I might visit her. Thanks kid, here's some money, and go buy yourself some candy," Eric whispered to the little girl and slipping her some money while Lavi wasn't looking. "Hey Lavi! Let's go look at the statue of Ave María!"

"What? Why?"

"Because that's the only the thing that's changed in this city, and my "informant" told me there was a little, glowing, green jewel in her crown."

"Quick! Let's go find Allen and Lenalee and find that statue!"

In his excitement, Lavi didn't notice that in the nearby alley, Tyki and Rhode had heard their whole conversation.

"This is going to be fun, won't it, Tyki?"

"Hmm, we may need to look out for the new Exorcist though, I don't see him holding any Innocence or sense any on him, but his aura seems to match ours."

"Does mean what I think it means?"

"Yes, we may have found another brother, Rhode," Tyki replied with an ominous chuckle before they faded into the shadows.
