The story doesn't seem quite finished yet does it? Well there's a reason for that. I've got a number of different ways I can go with this, and most of them planned out, so this will be a bit of a choose your own adventure type of deal. Just read the story, then the options I'm putting here in the description. Leave a vote for which path you want in the comments and within a couple of weeks I'll tally them up and go for the most popular path. In cases of ties I may do something weird if I think it's feasible, but don't take that as incentive to go around creating ties all the time
If i can't do something weird I'll do a tie-breaker of some kind to be decided at a later point.
Anyway here are your options for the next part:
What does Duncan do?
1 - Randomly use a crystal <-Winner
2 - Not use a crystal
3 - Call the shop
4 - Decide to go to the shop
5 - Get distracted by Riko who's gotten bored and has focused on his groin again.
Part 2 This means voting has now closed.
