Smith (Jaela, Calleigh, Surraruthru)

The irony is so delicious! Jaela shows no sign of her thoughts, of course. "There is indeed, Your Majesty," she agrees, saluting the queen with her spear. "Allow me to deliver Aurora's thanks for your thoughtful gift. While everything else can wait, that could not."

She wouldn't hold Vlaakith for a conversation, since it seems like a bad time. Is it always a bad time for her? Hard to say, so Jaela doesn't dwell on that. She waits for either the gith queen to move or dismiss them.

Spot check, Surraruthru.

The Astral...twists? You aren't sure what it is. For a moment there is time and movement and folding silver and a piercing, overwhelming headache for Jaela. Then Vlaakith and her items are gone.

"Scouts, spread out!" Jaela commands, returning to her forces. "There's liches about, and we might as well do Astral a favor on our way back! Healers, restore the officers!"

Noted. Looting will be handled in the wrap up topic. Y'all have an army here and no opposition, so they can do the grunt work and it can be summarized.

Is there anything else that needs to be done here? I'll spoiler and say that (and Merc's PoV when he gets on to see it) there's not a lot happening, as the rift took most of its problems back with it.

I would be remiss in not trying to find a lich for Afina, complete with philactery.  :)

But that's it, you summed up our actions fairly well.

[Anastasia]

Finding an active lich isn't going to happen. It's possible you'll find a phylactery, but that can be covered in the post battle summary.

Oh boy, I get to write another one of those. There goes tomorrow.

[Iron Dragoon]

I got nothin' specific, unless there's something dragon-y and special, but I figure that would have happened already.

[Anastasia]

Okay. If anyone else has anything, post in nagging. Thread's locked.
