Guilding

[Anastasia]

You'd know it exists, at least.

[Iron Dragoon]

"There's a spell for it, I've heard of one. I'll have to find out about it. Maybe a short trip to Brightwater will be needed after all."

[Anastasia]

"Of course, ma'am," Lorathana replies, "Is there anything else?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Not on my end. Do you have anything for me?"

[Anastasia]

"Three things," Lorathana begins, "First, there were no assassinations or incidents last night."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Thankfully. What else?"

[Anastasia]

"We're increasing our food supplies, just in case. This has gone well and under budget, in what must truly be a miracle." Lorathana says.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Two spots of good news? This must mean the third is that Madala's put forth a vote to unseat me or the like."

[Anastasia]

Lorathana hesitates a moment. "The third is...personal."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa sighs and sits down.

"Leogeon, start gathering things and recruiting people for the spell circles. Go ahead Lorathana."

[Anastasia]

A nod and your servant is off, then Lorathana says, "Jarem and I are going out this evening," she says, neutrally.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa raises an eyebrow. "Good. You need to relax. It'll make things easier for me."

She leans forward, "And if he gets out of line, I'll put him back in. He's got a reputation inside his own order I gather. At least from the librarian we ran into. If he pushes too far, ask about her."

[Anastasia]

"..." A slight twist of Lorathana's lips downwards. "What sort of reputation."

[Iron Dragoon]

"She was quite upset that he brought two of his, and I quote, floozies with him to the library. Emily didn't seem to catch on, so that's one less explanation I have to give, but I think it's quite telling. Don't let it dissuade you, I think you've got the kind of iron needed to set him straight, but it's gonna be work."

[Anastasia]

The faintest narrowing of Lorathana's eyes, "Floozies? I see. Floozies."
