[Day 3, Morning]

[twelvemods]

[The morning clicks over.

You awaken having had a series of odd dreams last night. You feel wide awake this morning, your brain alive and awake. But your thoughts keep drifting to someone in particular....]




((OOC NOTE: For most of you, you will be taken by an absolute, ferocious fascination with the people you dreamt about. However your curiosity engages... do you want to know their backstory? Do you want to know alllllll about their love lives? You want nothing more than to be around them and learn...

On the other hand, if you feel like you are MISSING SOMETHING since the fight with the ooze monster... you feel that same fascination, but you also have this solid knowledge that they have or know something you NEED.

This event will be going all week. The event to settle this will be coming later, so sit back and ENJOY :D.))

[direstnews]

And your sleep? Restful and uninterrupted, I trust?

[atacarme]

[eyeing him now]

Until that girl decided to wake me up, yes.

[direstnews]

No peculiar dreams...?

[atacarme]

. . . what are you getting at, child?

[direstnews]

I find myself unsettled.

I would know whether it's a widespread affliction, and what manner of affliction it might be.

[He rubs again at his chest, unconsciously.]

[atacarme]

. . .

[watches his hand, frowning]

It is not just you.

[direstnews]

[Nods as though he's not entirely surprised, and he drifts a little to one side while he walks, as though by coincidence, putting a little more space between you.]

That, however, is not the reason I wished to speak with you.

[atacarme]

[I don't believe in coincidences :T Watches him]

What did you wish to speak to me about, then?

[direstnews]

[Maintaining the distance, as though he hasn't noticed drifting at all.]

You were near the creature that appeared last night, were you not?

[atacarme]

A bit too close, yes.

[direstnews]

And you were able to sense some manner of magic from it?

[atacarme]

Mm. Dark magic.

[direstnews]

And beyond that? Beneath it?

[atacarme]

Why are you asking?

[direstnews]

[Keeps an eye on you without looking like he's keeping an eye on you.]

Because I wish to know what became of the creature that was meant to have come, instead.

[atacarme]

What creature was meant to—. . . did you summon something?

[direstnews]

[Nnnnods.]

[atacarme]

What were you intending to bring here?

[direstnews]

A creature of knowledge. I intended only answers.

[atacarme]

[llllooks annoyed . . . ]

And did you get those answers?

[direstnews]

[Noting that. :|b And keeping up that distance without seeming to mean it.]

I'd no time to ask. The one to whom I meant to speak was overwritten.

[atacarme]

I thought you were unable to cast.

[direstnews]

But little. That spell and one other.

[atacarme]

. . .

[direstnews]

So I ask again: beneath the darkness, could you sense aught else?
