Journey abroad (Jaela)

[Corwin]

"Since it's a lengthy process, no reason you can't do both," Jaela points out. "Some of these spells, they change you as you use them. Corrupt you. Why let them do that?"

I'd like to take 10 for K:A for 52 to figure out if there's any magical aid that I could provide myself, arrange on Ellese's behalf or recommend.

This sort of corruption is deep and perverse. She's ultimately right. Even fi she frees her mind, her magic is still polluted. The source has to be addressed.

The tricky part is that it's not the sort of thing you can atone away. It's not Ellese's sin that's the problem. You need something profoundly holy to help her, to wipe away Baator's power without shredding her spirit or worse. As a powerful servant of the Triune, you may quality for the profoundly holy part, but you'd need to develop your own approach. After all, you were able to help free her mind.

"I've got an idea," Jaela finally tells Ellese, after thinking about the problem some more. "I've got this quest about purifying a corrupted ring through the purity of a newborn's joy, and I think we'll bend the rules a bit by inviting you over for that. It sounds like just the sort of situation where you would get a good shot at the sort of backing you need to cast off Baator's influence for good. So in the meanwhile, just work on keeping your mind your own and keeping your magic less likely to taint you. The practice is bound to come in handy later!"

[Anastasia]

"I will," Ellese promises.

Okay, ready to move along now? Jaela, would you mind time-shuffling the druids back and doing the Surraruthru thing first? He's waiting on you, and the druids are a plane shift away afterwards.

[Corwin]

Okay!

Then this thread is done for now. Locking.
