Mind search (Calleigh and Tryll)

[Yuthirin]

"You don't want help with that? Sounds fun! And explody?"

[Anastasia]

Tepen clears his throat and then says, "The point is for it not to explode. But onto the matter at hand, you were asking about mind magic?"

[Yuthirin]

"Noooo, mind magic and psionics are different!" Calleigh protests.

[Yuthirin]

"But yeah, Tryll has been up in tentacles about getting a supply of stuff to help him do his thing. Got a lead?"

[Anastasia]

"I have a ...did you say up in tentacles?" Elder Magi Tepen stops, "Did I hear that right?"

[Yuthirin]

I got through Tepen's unflappable façade! WOOP!

"Well yeah. He's got no arms." Calleigh looks at Tepen funny. "You're not one of those people who can see him all the time, huh?"

[Anastasia]

"I am not." Elder Magi Tepen says slowly, "I see. Regardless, psionic items are far less common than ones made from magic, as I'm sure you know. Pistis Sophia is one of the most powerful psionics in Creation, but her doctrine rejects material goods. Solania is largely a dead end for you on account of that. Another strong one is Levistus, Lord of the Fifth, who even if he supports such items, is not an option for you."

Now Tepen leans forward, "I fear your best shot is to go to Brightwater. I have heard a name of a powerful celestial with powerful psionics. Her name is Debonah; I do not know if she creates those items herself, but she may well know others that do. Should that fail or be unappealing, you may be able to find leas in Solania, if you are persistent."

[Yuthirin]

"Oh boy, Brightwater again! We just left there! Nice place. Lots of art critics though. Do you know how hard it is to get your stuff into a gallery there? Lemme tell you, it's not easy. Lots of talk about 'relevancy' and 'post-modernism' and 'minimalism' and 'too much color!' Bleh. Stuffy."

[Yuthirin]

In case it wasn't clear, onward to Brightwater! Let's find someone to send us there!

[Anastasia]

Going by your lonesome or bringing anyone? Up to you, just need to know.

[Yuthirin]

Snyone who wants a trip to Brightwater is welcome! I'll check in on Rosa too.

[Anastasia]

Rosa's found in her quarters. She's wearing an old slip of white silk, a blanket wrapped around her shoulders and hiding most of her. She opens the door like that, "Calleigh?" she asks softly.

[Yuthirin]

Calleigh's smile shines like a small sun. "Hi! Feeling better?"

[Anastasia]

"Some," She answers, stepping aside after a moment, "Come in." You can see things are neat in here, her table with a pot of tea and a picked over lunch of sandwiches and fruit.

[Yuthirin]

Calleigh flits in, door closing itself handily behind her. "We tried to help with the thing that devil guy did. Elixir. Tryll went in your brain. Soul. Thing. We tried! Couldn't do much, but it's devils. All their rules and rigidness and the tyranny and not liking strawberries makes them unhappy and they do unhappy things and make others unhappy and that's sad! But I'm glad you're feeling better. Oooh fruit!"
