Welcome back to Uncharted Beyond Realms. Last time, Spyro, Cynder, and Nathan Drake all reunited, made up, and ended up being blackmailed by the Malefic Order, who we now know have captured Sully and Elena. Under threat from their leader, the remaining trio is forced to find out where the pendants lead. So, where do they lead? Read on to start discovering...

(The scene opens on a view of the seven pendants sitting on the table, before zooming out to see Spyro, Cynder, and Nathan Drake looking at them, trying to figure out what to do now)

Spyro: Okay, we've gathered all the pendants, so... now what?

Cynder: This is where the legends go a bit dry. All we know is somehow these pendants, when brought together, are somehow supposed to "Put the Ancestors' power in hand" or something like that. There's nothing about how we get to that point.

Nathan Drake: Well, we've got to find something out, since the enemy is breathing down our necks about it.

Spyro: Good point, we'd better get working at it.

(With no idea what they're looking for the trio set to work on the pendants. Spyro grabs one and starts looking through the rose quartz gemstone, Cynder examines the metalwork. But Nathan Drake starts looking at the thing in a 360 view, and soon he notices something on the back, what look like scorch marks. Acting on a hunch, he picks up another pendant and turns it over, and sure enough, more scorch marks, but not identical to the last one. He sees the one Spyro is examining, and on the back, there's more scorch marks. And in that moment, he sees it)

Nathan Drake: Hey guys, I think I've got something.

Cynder: Well don't keep us in suspense. What is it?

Nathan Drake: There's weird scorch marks on the back of each of them.

(At this point, Cynder turns the pendant she's working on over and sure enough, more scorch marks. But she notices something specific about the scorch marks)

Cynder: These aren't just any markings, they're Runes!

Nathan Drake: Runes?

Spyro: (Seeing the Runes on the back of the pendant he was working on) The ancient alphabet of dragonkind. It's still used in artisan circles.

Cynder: One problem with these Runes though, they make no sense.

Nathan Drake: So much for that idea.

(But as he sets the pendant down, Nathan Drake realizes he placed it close to a compass, and that the compass needle is now pointing at the pendant)

Nathan Drake: (Realizing it) Maybe they don't make sense individually...

(With no hesitation, Nathan Drake grabs the seven pendants and starts aligning them, and sure enough, they do eventually stick together in the following configuration: Violet surrounded by White, Red, Yellow, Black, Green, and Blue in that order)

Nathan Drake: (Flipping the combined pendants over) But what about together...?

Spyro: Nate, that was brilliant!

Nathan Drake: Too bad I still have no idea what I'm looking at.

Cynder: Let me take a look. I can read the old Runes fluently.

Nathan Drake: (Holding the combined pendants in her direction) Go for it.

Cynder: Let's see. (Reading the Runes) "Protectors in single file hold the secret. The Seven Sisters will lead the way."

Spyro: Still doesn't make a lot of sense.

Nathan Drake: "Protectors in single file"... (Thinking he's got it figured out) Are there any collections of columns around here anywhere?

Cynder: There really aren't a lot of typical columns. Most of them are statues actually. (Thinks about it) Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Nathan Drake: Maybe.

Spyro: Protectors in single file... (Realizes it) We're all on the same page then.

Nathan Drake: I'm not, I still don't know this place that well.

Cynder: It's Warfang's Palace of Justice. The front facade is statues of Guards in single file formation parallel to the street!

Nathan Drake: That's where we need to go then. Someone get that spy the Malefic Order placed on the horn.

Spyro: Let's hope they hold up their end of the bargain.

Cynder: Do you expect them to?

Spyro: No.

Nathan Drake: Well, we don't have much choice right now. Let's go.

(And as the trio leave, our scene ends for today)

And that looks like a good place to end for now. So, there was a second riddle burned into the back of the pendants, and it points to a series of statues. Well, that explains the first part of the riddle. But what about the second one? "The Seven Sisters will lead the way". I have a feeling some people will be able to get it from that group name. But for those who do know, don't spoil it. So, what awaits at the Palace of Justice? Tune in next time to find out! Same time... same channel!
