And once that happens, they'll figure out a way to provide everyone with a roof over their heads and with an honorable occupation. In a sense, Seira is happy that it's future Seira's problems.

Onwards!

For Dugarth, refresh me on what precisely you were trying to copy over to Lifasa?

Sure. So in the Balmuria Prime, we have several nice things! There is a teleportation network that has local hubs, national hubs and international ones, connecting Seira's temples for travelers and traders. There are (bland but filling) food and water-providing items at each temple that are enough to feed the local population (and Laurenal is working on spreading that globally). There are libraries all over with magical and mundane information, and the world itself has been mapped out (said information too is in the libraries). There's the high end which is the magical academy and the Mythal, there's the lower end like an inn here and there.

For Lifasa, I'd like Elle to handle a version of the transportation network, and I've established an academy town that should have a library and magical school. But the rest is pretty open, and for him to attempt whichever improvements he thinks work best/are most needed in Lifasa.

"Lady Seira.

1. The teleportation network can be copied, but it will take time and money. However, Lifasa's abundance of powerful heroes and patrons makes this more feasible than it would be otherwise. Estimated timetables are enclosed, but we cannot discount possible interference. However, Lady Elle's help only further smooths our way.
2. While possible, we have received signs that Auril will work against this from our auguries - in an unhidden way, because the nature of winter is one of deprivation. Nonetheless we proceed forward to accomplish this goal, but with abundant caution as for now, food is plentiful and will remain that way for some time.
3. Libaries proceed well and information spreads. There are many powerful heroes and forces willing to do so, and Lady Afina's further efforts here were helpful, before she focused on other issues.

The money is no issue, with Elle's help, Seira informs Dugarth. Focus your efforts on winning hearts and minds. Sell the concept of the transportation system and its benefits in providing assistance and food as need be, not to mention the advantages to personal travel and traders. Auril can only do so much damage acting directly against this network given it's all based out of my temples, but turning the populace against us will ruin the entire effort.

'As you will it, my lady,' Dugarth sends back without hesitation.

A warm feeling of approval envelops Dugarth!

Let's hear from Malana and our anti-Auril plans.

A simple report is your answer.

"Since the demise of Lord Jack Maggen, slow progress has been made. However, Aurilites are entrenched and this will be no quick operation. There always seem to be more, and Lady Marianne believes that Auril herself may be sending more servants. We have made progress, but this will not be done in one winter, or ten or even more. However, current actions have given us the initiative, at least for now."

What do you need to help feed, cloth and protect people, providing them with a roof over their heads and warmth to shield from Auril's frosty love?

'Seira! More of everything,' Is the answer, honest and direct. 'But mostly more capable warriors.'

I'll see what we can manage. Send me locations and duties where you believe they can do the most good.

'I promise I will! Ones strong against the winter, too.'

Elementals might be an interesting approach, and a call to Waukeen will not go amiss. Seira decides to first focus on the latter.

Sorry if it's sudden, but do you have any sort of presence on this world? Seira asks Waukeen, sending her an image of Malana along with her words.

That world? I do, but nothing strong in that region of it. Auril and the House of Fury is strong there.
