Cloud Age Symphony

[Dracos]

"Agreed.  Parth, get well.  Don't die." Dracos remarked, with a bit of a tongue in cheek grin at him.  He then turned around to exit.  "Radagast, can you contact me when you get confirmation about the crystal?  I'm going to head over and research anything we have on breaking such wards."

[Ginrai]

Ginrai chuckles at Dracos' comment and waves back.  "Good luck, Phil."

He then asks Radagast, "What is my current status?  Will I be ready to take part in the next battle?"

[Brian]

Phil now goes to Masquerade.

"That remains to be seen," Radagast says thoughtfully.  "Perhaps, with rest ... though, as things went, you were very lucky to even be alive."

[Ginrai]

Ginrai nods.  "If possible I'd like to be out there to at least stop any potential attacks by the Jotun."

[Brian]

"We shall see," Radagast says, managing a smile.  "In the meantime, you should rest.  Is there anything I can get you while you recover?"

[Ginrai]

"I don't think there's anything I need right now."  Yawning, he says, "Probably just some rest."

[Brian]

Radagast nods at Parthipan.  "Very well," he says.  "Try to recover as much strength as you can."

Radagast gives Parthipan an encouraging nod, and then turns to head for the door.

[Ginrai]

Ginrai waits for a bit to see if anyone else will be coming in before heading back to sleep.

[Brian]

Just as Ginrai is about to doze off, there's a quiet, nearly tremulous knock at the door.

[Ginrai]

"Come in!"

[Brian]

The door opens slowly and Astryd steps into the room cautiously, looking around and apparently surprised no one else is present.

"Ah," she says hesitantly.  "Are you feeling any better?" she asks, closing the door behind her and moving to stand closer to the window, and the moonlight streaming in from it.

[Ginrai]

"Hi!  I'm feeling okay now though Radagast said that I might need some more rest so I can take part in the next battle."

Lifting his head up so he can see Astryd, he asks, "So, what have you been up to?"

[Brian]

"Just preparing for the trip south," she says, shaking her head.  "I hope that everything turns out well ... and I also wanted to warn you that ... I don't entirely trust Devin.

"I think he was far too willing to put you in danger last night."

[Ginrai]

"Oh?  Which place will you be heading to?

"As for Devin...."  Ginrai sighs.  "I'm not sure about that.  To me it seemed that he didn't expect it to turn out the way it did.  Is he also going on the mission?  There were a few things I wanted to ask him about the spell."

[Brian]

"I'm going to the Archonae city," Astryd replies after a moment.  "We're going to try and recover the missing crystals.  Hopefully Radagast will be able to retrieve the one we seek...."  She shakes her head.  "Devin will be staying behind, so you'll have plenty of time to ask him about the ... spell."
