Homefront

[Corwin]

Seira taps her lips thoughtfully.

Thank you for informing me, Quadrus. I request that if at all possible, I receive advance notice of any meetings scheduled for me with Mechanus's representatives 24 subjective hours prior. As for the present situation, I am interested in keeping the meeting with Chrona 42 on schedule, and discuss the prophecy afterwards. She pauses, before deciding to ask, Is the meeting with Chrona 42 exclusive to myself?

[Anastasia]

'I will make a note of that for your file,' Is thea nswer you get, 'Amaryl is welcome to attend, or anyone who has obtained divinity.'

[Corwin]

Thank you

Redirecting her attention to Ranbar and Donald, Seira apologizes to the former. "I'm afraid that I have an appointment I need to keep. Give me a few hours, and then we can see about getting you equipped properly."

[Anastasia]

Ranbar bows deeply to you. "Thank you, my lady."

With a sidelong glance at Ranbar, "She has a name. I've heard you use it."

Ah, the color red suits Ranbar's face. "All of this is so much today. Please, mercy on my patience."

"Yeah, sure," Donald agrees, "Seira's great, she won't smite you for using her name to her face. Plus she has great benefits and dragons, too."

[Corwin]

That has more to do with how Seira abstains from smiting people in the first place, though she chooses not to bring it up.

"I agree. There's no need to push too fast," she tells Donald, before deciding to rest up a bit prior to meeting with her visitor from Mechanus.

[Anastasia]

Just skipping ahead then? Okay, correct me if I'm wrong.

A little over two hours later, you are disturbed, "Seira," Elle says, "We've just gotten some unusual information I think you need to hear."

[Corwin]

"What is it?" Seira asks Elle, mentally sending for Kascha.

[Anastasia]

"We just received word of a location in Air where time is going awry," Is what she says, "From a reliable source."

[Corwin]

"Yep, that's for me alright," Seira agrees. She waits a few moments for Kascha to arrive, asking Elle in the meantime, "What can you tell me of the destination?"

[Anastasia]

Kascha hurries in while Elle continues, "Time is going backwards and strangely there, out of time and with strange creatures appearing. It's a floating island in Air."

[Corwin]

"See you in a few," Seira tells Elle with a grin, resting her hand on Kascha's shoulder and transporting them to the edge of the phenomenon.

[Anastasia]

Thus the two of you are on Air.

Gentle winds blow before an island floating in Air, untouched. Far ahead in the island sits a castle, normal enough looking and rather large. The land of the island is rocky and largely barren, though grass does grow in a few places.

[Corwin]

Seira floats ahead at a sedate pace, confident that her appointment will be met precisely on time.

[Anastasia]

As you enter - before your eyes an in the breath of an instant, the grasses ahead grow full and lush. Flowers rise amid them, blossoming and sweet. Then they wilt and die, only to regrow again and repeat. This happens a dozen times in less than a second.

[Corwin]

"Looks like a loop," Seira voices to Kascha, checking the current time.
