"Come now, don't I deserve the truth after everything else?" Moore asks with a smile.

[Anastasia]

"It's nothing, just a mistaken assumption," Kaja says, "Let it go, it's nothing but wind beneath a dragon's wings."

[Nephrite]

"She's just a friend of mine." Moore says, as if that answers the question.

He'll teleport them to ... uhh... I forget what it's called! Wherever Ilsenine's court is. Surely he would know!

Kaja blinks and begins to say something, but the teleport cuts him off.

You appear in a room. A room with a stone perch atop a fountain, waters flowing freely. The walls are wood and tree branches, the roof a forest canopy come low. A slide that is pixie sized is here for a fun time down, or one can simply fly. This is one of Ilsenine's teleportation destination rooms in her palace.

Kaja, on a perch not meant for someone as big as he is, wobbles about, arms flailing.

With a graceful leaps Kaja flips into the air, landing in a smooth crouch on the ground, avoiding a tumble into the fountain.

[Nephrite]

"Haha, sorry, I forgot about that." Moore admits. "This way."

Moore will lead him further along!

[Anastasia]

Going straight for Ilsenine?

[Nephrite]

Yeah, no reason not to.

[Anastasia]

Gimme a d100.

Throughout the palace, you get bows and respectful looks. Moore walks amid the fey of Lifasa once more. As you walk the halls you are smoothly intercepted, Lady Skye at your side.

"Her Majesty will see you, Moore. This way."

[Nephrite]

He raises a hand in greeting to all those familiar, and even those not familiar.

"Lady Skye, it's good to see you again. Kaja, this is Lady Skye, she's been at the Queen's side for... goodness knows how long and was always a staunch ally of her and Aurora." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

Lady Skye returns Kaja's nod with one of her own then focuses on you. "There comes both joyous and grim news,' Lady Skye continues. "Have you heard of Crystal's impeding blessings?"

[Nephrite]

"I have." Moore responds. He'll let her extrapolate, because there could be all sorts of things going on with that!

[Anastasia]

"Excellent," Lady Skye says, "While Jaela and others have continued crusading, Afina has been wandering - until recently. Are you aware of the situation?"

[Nephrite]

"I'm aware of some of it, including Gathgorian." Moore says with a frown.
