The Ruins contain a series of cave paintings and carvings, perhaps depicting history or legend from a time well before the Savior. The first recognizable carving depicts a spherical blue-green ball, with a humanoid figure standing above it with its arms raised. The floor on the first level down are decorated similarly, but the carvings here are too degraded to tell what they're depicting. Some script is present, some of it the same as what can be found in the Old City, but some of it written in symbols unseen elsewhere.
The passage through the rest of the Ruins have been marked by a Woobat's Heart Stamp along the walls, following the path Jinxie and Maya took when they investigated there. Following this path, the next most intact picture depicts an enormous, blue crystal-like stone, surrounded by people looking afraid. The crystal is dotted with yellow throughout. This message can be found on this painting.
Near the end of the passage, there is a series of paintings telling the end of the story. The creature from the first image standing over the blue ball is back, moving around little green and brown pieces on the ball. The next panel shows it standing in front of large stones like the one depicted before - one blue, one brown, and one grey. The stones are shaped vaguely like humans, but more statuesque and geometric. The creature and the three stones are surrounded by people with fearful expressions, and each in turn are depicted being attacked and chained.
The next several walls are blocked by crumbling stone, but the next visible wall shows the creature from before standing guard over a group of cowering humans. The images after this are happier in tone, with the creature being worshiped and revered by the humans. And underneath it all, there is one last message.
All of the above has been provided to the university for study by Jinxie and Maya.
