Shadow War campaign In-Game: Chapter 73- Crisis on Infinite Asheareas

[Gaumer]

"What friend? An' where?

If'n we be set to find the Trust it be my aim to find it. We be 'avin' knowin's o' where the Trust be, an' nothin' o' where ye'd 'ave us go to be savin' one who be in danger on 'count o' leavin' us in the first place.

The world be needin' more from the elders than that gnome."

[chrysalis]

"Did you not just hear everything that Aldina said? I think we've had the key all along and we just gave it away!"

[Gaumer]

"So, 'e be a slave now? Property to be kept an' given as we be seein' fit?

The gnome made 'is choice.

Sure'n ye can be checkin' on 'im by magic wit' 'elp o' one 'ere, but lessin' we be knowin' more 'bout such we can't be lookin' 'way from gettin' the Trust if'n we be this close to gettin' it.

*sigh*

But I'll be leavin' it to the all in this room for the choosin' on that. Sure'n another split up be on the 'orizon knowin' this lot."

[Navarre]

Knox ponders.

"But the Primordial can set the universe right by themselves if they had the Trust, yeah? I mean, they built it."

Aldina shrugs and nods.

"I suppose so. They have the power to build universes using the Weaving. They probably do that from the Faerie Kingdom, where they create a new line of reality."

"I only say that, given a Nexus, a mortal could do the same."

Vinnrog blinks.

"You mean a man could create a whole universe, like a god?"

Aldina nods.

"...or become a god."

[Gaumer]

"Hohoho

Ye all not be knowin' Faerun, I be sayin'.

But, 'e be a nexus; an' we be knowin' o' 'em bein' able to destroy as much as build worlds. If'n the right ones be gettin' 'old o' 'im...

Oi, not Faerun, though. 'E be a right strange at most but 'e be no destroyer."

Bedlor looks to Moira and back to the group

"By Kallum's dusty beard...

What sort o' magic do ye all be 'avin' to be checkin' on that gnome?"

Bedlor gives the quickest of apologetic looks in Liv's direction.

[chrysalis]

"I always felt he could betray."

[Navarre]

The mystics reply to you, Bedlor.

"We have nothing that can scry or locate him from this distance, I'm afraid," replies Moira.

She glances to you, Liv, her face down.

"Please don't say that. I know his heart was broken but he wouldn't betray everything he believes in. Faerun has said many times he serves Life."

Aphra sniffs, "Yeah, but he might be wanting to make the right one."

[chrysalis]

"It's not what I believe, Moria, it's what I felt. Sometimes I feel something and I can't explain it. Feeling Faerun would betray happens to be one of those feelings. It doesn't mean he would choose to betray, just that would betray."

"I don't think I can locate souls from this distance, but I will try."

I try to locate Faerun's soul, as well as this worlds Jett.

[Navarre]

You reach out to contact Faerun. Whether your power is growing or you are driven by need, you cannot say.

But you do detect Faerun to the east. You cannot tell how far nor his condition from here, nor can you locate Jett.

[chrysalis]

"I can feel Faerun to the east of us, but that is all. I am unable to locate Jett, or that other guard that was with them."

"I do believe they are in great danger."

[Navarre]

Jackson frowns.

"But the Trust is right below us. We can free the Primordial and let them sort this out."

[chrysalis]

"Jackson, what do you mean it's right below us?"

[Navarre]

The young man replies.

"Just that the cloud is heading toward West Wellington now. We'll be there soon...unless we turn around."

"But I've never met this 'Faerun'. So maybe we should help him if he's that important, I dunno."

[chrysalis]

"If I think what I think I'm thinking is true, then yes, finding Faerun is more important right now."

[Navarre]

Inoke looks to you.

"And what are you thinking?"
