Moore turns and looks at Xandra. He pauses for a moment to give her a shake of his head before he resumes flying forward.

Anastasia

"Why?" Xandra obeys nonetheless, "Let us return to Celestia with many freed slaves."

<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Nephrite

"We were not sent here to free slaves today." Moore says as they continue on. "That isn't to say it isn't a good deed that we should still do if an opportunity arises -- if we need to free Jetina, for example. But I don't think that's what the Mountain is trying to show us."

Anastasia

Keeping her voice low, "If we find Jetina has left this realm safely, then shall we deliver justice unto slavers?"

Do not turn your back on evil in front of you, yet do not turn your back one evil to fight another blindly. Many times there are no easy answers.

Nephrite

Moore pauses to consider that for a moment.

"Yes, but not today." Moore says, quietly. "We have more allies now and could save more if we bring a larger force. So for now, let's just keep an eye on fortifications and how we might accomplish that goal when we do return."

Anastasia

Xandra agrees with a curt nod, "Very well," she says, "If not today, then one day."

"Maybe even tomorrow." Moore says with a smile.

With that, he continues towards the city itself.

Guessing there will be guards posted outside the city, we'll just be open and honest and say we're looking for someone named Jetina who may have arrived recently.

There's a bar of sorts. A watering hole for non-natives. Mortals, a few outsiders of various stripes, odder things yet. You sit at the bar, manned by a headless figure clad in armor, who speaks nonethless, "Jetina? You mean the healer?"

Moore has so many questions about this...

Regardless, he nods.

"Yes, that's correct, she should've shown up a day or two ago." Moore says.

Anastasia

"A little longer than that, she had cold water and paid good gold for it," The headless warrior explains, voice deep and resonant. The voice of a commander, perhaps. "I remember her because she offered to regenerate the head she thought I should have."

"That sounds like her." Moore says with a nod. "I'm sure you get a lot of questions about that. Anyway, do you have any idea what she was doing here or where she might've gone?"
