Fairy waltz

[Anastasia]

I must not be found. What is it?

[Nephrite]

A dangerous curse from the one known as Shar. Your mastery over healing rivals anyone that I know, I thought you might be able to help us.

[Anastasia]

Diplo check, +10 for past deeds.

[Nephrite]

He's still got his Charisma boosters from the songs, so it's a whopping 166 like that.

[Anastasia]

But I must not be found.

But...

I owe you a debt. Who is it?

[Nephrite]

My two friends, Sylvie and Kaja. I can open a way for you to come here, if you wish. You will not be found here - that I promise. Or if you would rather designate a place on your own, we can go there.

[Anastasia]

Diplo again, -20 penalty this time.

[Nephrite]

146 with Take 10 in that case.

[Anastasia]

Bring them to me.

[Nephrite]

"Can you do some planar travel?" Moore asks them.

[Anastasia]

"If I ha...have to," Kaja grimaces, "I'm alive, just in pain. I know pain. I've been in this sort of pain before." He manages to get to his feet, "The sooner, the better."

[Nephrite]

"This is the kind of travel that's worth it." Moore says. "Cresiel, Xandra, you two stay here for anything else that happens. We shouldn't be gone long. Jetina, help Sylvie for me please, you come with me."

The four of us will Gate to the Positive Energy Plane - I assume the Shining Watcher can interdict us to him that way.

[Anastasia]

Gimme a d100, mostly for setup tomorrow.

[Nephrite]

[21:39] <Nephrite> roll 1d100
[21:39] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d100 --> [ 1d100=20 ]{20}

[Anastasia]

The lair of the Shining Watcher has not changed. Only its master has.

For on the beast's enormous shell, life blossoms. Forests and jungle, grass. Lakes. A vast surface that seems far too big for its shell, yet goes on and on in defiance of logic. It is aglow in the radiance of the Positive Energy Plane, so bright that it is like a newborn star.

Yet it watches as you approach, tight and tense.
