[Oh boy, what a night that was. Nida hadn't been able to sleep after the Earthquake started.]

I'm going to warn everyone about last night. That quake? It was magic. I could feel it, like I felt before the Aspects disappeared, before the Demon Bear. Something's coming.

Please, be careful. Don't be alone. Stay off the streets at night.

[His voice is shaking with a bit of fear. But last night had been bad. Real bad.]

I felt it too.

Do you think this is the same as the bear? That something is about to happen?

[skyward_eyes]

I don't know if it's exactly the same, but it's probably bad news. Magic can be pretty dangerous when loose, and I expect you get that.

I wonder what they broke this time. Or what they will bring in.

[whereishe]

I do.

[She pauses thoughtfully.]

We should prepare. You are with the guard, I am sure you have you're own preparations too. Maybe we could find out where the magic is sourced. It may be the same as the bear, that is, something coming through the portal.

[skyward_eyes]

They want to send people home? They were trying last time I think.

[skyward_eyes]

Trust me, I intend to tell the Captain in the morning. If he allows me, I can take a walk with you to search it out.

I hope it's not the bear again

[soulsword]

Yes, but it seems they failed and broke things instead.

[skyward_eyes]

'Wise' higher powers seem to do that a lot.

[soulsword]

So very true. One almost would wish that they would just stop messing with things they clearly do not understand fully.

[skyward_eyes]

They do it because... well, who knows why. I just know that it could hurt us.

[soulsword]

I imagine they do it in a misguided attempt to fix things. It more than likely will hurt us. At least we are prepared for the worst.

[skyward_eyes]

They want to send us home, I understand. I don't much care for it.

At least we can get armed easily enough.

[whereishe]

Good.

Perhaps we can follow the magic? I can feel something but it's hard to say what.

[soulsword]

You don't care much for the idea of going home?

[skyward_eyes]

No. I'd much rather not be involved with my world.

[skyward_eyes]

I guess we go for triangulation.

[soulsword]

What did your world do to you?

[skyward_eyes]

Nothing I feel like talking about. But the fact is that there are those I'd rather live my life beside than going home. So that's a goal.

[prodigalvampire]

Did you practice being that ominous or does it just come naturally?

[skyward_eyes]

Practice. Spies fill a lot of roles. But really, as someone who fought the damn bear, I'm a bit scared by this.

[soulsword]

Your goal is to make certain you can stay here?

[skyward_eyes]

Not at all. My goal is to go with him.

Granted that was what I wanted last time too. And even he, with all his magic, couldn't get us home. So I doubt I, with far more limited spells will achieve it.

But I won't stop trying.

[prodigalvampire]

So, in your world, spies don't give reports, they give ominous, foreboding warnings? That seems like a waste of energy.

...whatever comes out of that bridge, we'll be ready for it.

[By expecting anything and everything and being in no way prepared for it.]

[skyward_eyes]

No, they give reports to. But sometimes spies, posing as other things, give ominous, foreboding statements to get targets on edge. Only when the energy is well placed.

[Nida is less certain than Thomas is on that factor.]

I think we'll try and be prepared.

[whereishe]

Yes. I believe the two of us we should be able to find something.

Perhaps we ask another magic user to come with. I'd offer Caelan but that isn't his strong suit... Ignis perhaps?

What do you think?
