A Return

[Anastasia]

Sanzha considers for a time more, "Yes, I do believe I have an answer," she says, a faint smile showing on her face.

"Do tell," Corellon says, "What path will you choose?"

[Corwin]

Seira looks at Sanzha expectantly! Such a tease, she'd surely get along well with Hanali!

[Anastasia]

With the faintest bit of laughter, Lady Sanzha merely says, "That, my dear Coronal of Arvandor, would be telling. Why, sit back and wait for it to become apparent and be properly introduced to it."

[Corwin]

I think we're good to move on, unless you have something else?

[Anastasia]

Have anything to add to this Arvandor meeting yourself?

[Corwin]

I presume we either donate blood our arrange to have it happen later, so that's done. Amaryl's been honored, so that's also done.

I think it'd be good to conclude with Amaryl sharing her thoughts on the whole thing, since even though she was there she was all quiet again. To dip into meta for a sec, I think it'd also handle her Node goal?

[Anastasia]

Sounds good on all points.

Thus you return home with Amaryl. Once back there's that moment of relaxation after a long trip away, everything spent and ready to unwind. It's you and Amaryl on a couch, watching the fire crackle. "So much," Amaryl murmurs to break the silence, lost in her own thoughts until then.

[Corwin]

"I always had faith in you," Seira says, running her hand idly through Amaryl's long locks. "It was a long journey, but now we can finally stand on even ground."

It's definitely one of the happiest days of her life, up there with their marriage and the birth of their children!

How does Amaryl's divine aura come across?

[Anastasia]

Amaryl's divine aura is steady for now, strong. Also restrained, focused inwards.

"We finally can," Amaryl murmurs. "We finally can. We're a little closer to saving everything now, too. That made all of this worth every challenge we went through."

[Corwin]

Seira murmurs her assent, adding, "I know it won't match the rush of the initial celebration in Arvandor, but we're doing something special here as well. An entire week of festivities!"

Already, statues of golden dragons entwined in flight with forest green ones form all over the Cauldron's public areas, and all the archways have been changed to form such spirals. She'll ask Sanzha to handle the entertainment and put Elle in charge of the decor, which should play well with both of their talents.

[Corwin]

I meant the 'feel' of the divine aura, same as how Hanali came across, for example.

[Anastasia]

Just to be clear, link me to the post of Hanali that you found edifying here?

[Corwin]

Just to use a couple from this thread alone:

It's what happens when we get briefly overwhelmed by pretty much every deity or powerful individual.

[Anastasia]

Just needed to be sure.

Amaryl is more to you. She is...alive, there, vivid. A vividness, a feeling of strength comes from her. Of speed, like the wind blowing past you, full of aerial power.

"An entire week, huh?" Amaryl nudges, "I thought you'd go for a month!"

[Corwin]

"A week stays fresh in the mind, and we can do exciting new events each day. A month is where the days start blending together, won't you say?" Seira snorts. "Besides, we're not taking that long of a break from our duties! There's a Crusade to consider, after all!"
