Agreed. There's definitely something odd about this red dust. Unfortunately, I'm not really beyond high school chemistry for anything but plant compounds. Do you know if there's anyone here who might be able to analyze it?

[Kurama didn't really bring anything with him that would suitably contain it; at the moment, he doesn't really have much, period. He brushes the dust off his hand as he stands up again.]

That seems reasonable. I could anchor the sand but given how easily it's brushing away, it doesn't seem to be necessary.
