Saying "No" to the Blue Orb Guard in the Museum allows you to bypass him and look at the Blue Orb (doesn't move you back behind the guard)
Issue #1806
new
If you say no to the guard when he asks you for accompaniment, he'll say something like "Sorry" but you aren't moved back so you can just move forward and check out the orb before walking back and having to say "Yes" to continue the story.
