Moving spheres

Bre seems on the level, while the bald man is really drunk. Bre's had a few too, but he's holding it together.

"Some shit, leave it be. Better that way," Bre grunts, "No one will find it down there."

[Corwin]

My friend, Seira sends to Alicia from the Cauldron, I need to see you face to face, urgently.

[Ebiris]

"Fine," Marie lets it lie there. "Well, since I've got you both here I don't suppose you caught wind of any Sharrans while you were in the area?" she asks on the off chance.

Meanwhile back in Sylica, Alicia grabs Jessica and then gates the two of them over to the Cauldron in response to Seira's invitation.

[Anastasia]

Bre gives you a look, "Do you mean freaks in robes?"

We'll get you over to Seira's thread tomorrow and set that up.

[Ebiris]

"They don't exactly have a dress code," Marie says with a little shrug. "They like symbols of black circles lined with purple, talk a lot about loss and despair and entropy?"

[Anastasia]

Taking a sip of his drink, "Yeah," The bald man speaks up, "One of them said some shit about loss. Freaks. Didn't put it on Sharrans, heard that's what they do."

[Ebiris]

"Among lots of other horrible things. So in the spirit of sharing after I just told you all that Sandos gossip, what did you see of them out there?" Marie asks.

[Anastasia]

"We were doing recon of our cave there," Bre speaks up over his drink, "Making sure there weren't any local nasties that would take exception to us. We stumbled on them out there, wandering like zombies. They took exception to us and it got out of hand."

[Ebiris]

"In the cave or on the surface?" Marie asks, turning back to Bre. "I didn't see any other bodies..."

[Anastasia]

"Surface," Bre says, "Sometimes burrowers or the like come up, or a dragon might be able to sniff you out."

[Ebiris]

"Where did you stumble on them then, was it near where Sandos was stabbed?" Marie asks.

[Anastasia]

"Southwards," Bre says, "Far south of our recon range."

[Ebiris]

She expected them to be closer to the mine, but she can work with that. "Drinks are on me, gentlemen," she puts down some Sylican minted gold coins on the table and stands up to go walk out of the tavern.

[Anastasia]

Done and done. What's your next move, understanding I may pause you depending on what is is with the other room going.

[Ebiris]

Drop off clothes back in Sylica and equipment back in Honey Belle's in room, then go flying around the desert in invisible/incorporeal/tiny form South of where she tracked Sandos's last steps to.
