Finding Calley

[Anastasia]

Okay, worth covering all that IC then.

Going through the forges is without incident - you've been here before. This time you are taken deeper in. Here, in a single forge away from the others, in a room of walls of glittering gems and the light of Chronias coming through them, stands a solar. He is large even for one of that caste, looming over you and pure muscle. Yet his expression is gentle, hair the color of morning sunsine. He wears a smith's clothes and protective equipment, "Duke Moore," he greets you, "So the Mountain has lead you to my humble forge."

[Nephrite]

Moore offers a smile and a bow. "You have me at a disadvantage, I'm afraid. It always surprises me how much my name gets around ... especially when the denizens of Hell come at me specifically and cry my name in anger."

[Anastasia]

"Sunrise," The solar replies, "You come here because you need my services. Tell me what it is you need."

[Nephrite]

"...Do you get confused with Sun's Rise very often?" Moore asks, with a hint of a smile.

He nods afterwards and clears his throat. He withdraws the Ring of the Stowaway.

"I recently received this from a fallen agent of Hell. I would like to have more of these created, with the express purpose of only imbuing the spell of Time Stop in them. This current one is flexible and can have any spell put in it, but I really only need the one spell."

He holds the ring out for Sunrise to take and inspect as he wishes. "There are... other matters, but we can start with this." He smiles again.

[Anastasia]

The Ring of the Stowaway is examined, held in hand and up to the light.

"A precious thing," he declares, "A fine work of magic. These are not unknown but they are rare due to the cost. You may know that the greatest wizards and priests can do this without the ring - it is a hard art, a trick of the grand masters. To replicate it with magic is far from trivial."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. "Yet, seeing it embodied into a ring in such a way shows me that it is possible. It may be something that goes beyond a simple 'cost' that gold may be able to cover."

A smile, followed by a slight frown. "Gone are the days of merely paying a nominal amount of gold for an item of magical power, I think... our enemies are certainly receiving boons from their own divinities, I think is time I ask the same, knowing that I do not do it for no return. I am willing to do whatever I can to make up the cost."

[Anastasia]

"I will ask the Mountain of it," Sunrise says, "Before that, is there other business?"

[Nephrite]

Moore holds out the teleport beacon.

To be clear he was just holding onto it, he never put it into one of his inter-dimensional backpacks because boy howdy would that be a bad idea.

"I'd like to see if there's any way to change this. I've fought several foes who can simply leave whenever they wish. It makes things... troublesome to actually stop evil sometimes." Moore says. He gestures at the scepter-beacon.

"What I would like, if possible, is to make it into something that can be turned on and off at will to create some sort of scrambler for teleportation magic. The radius isn't so important, but... well, I suppose before I worry about the radius I should ask if that's even possible, first." He smiles. "Apologies, I dabbled a little in this sort of thing but don't know what's truly possible with magic... I'd imagine anything, really." A sheepish smile follows.

[Anastasia]

"Ah, a teleportation beacon. A one mile radius one," Sunrise takes it, holding it up to the light. "It's possible, they're related magic and creation. I can do so."

[Nephrite]

"A mile would be sufficient. If you needed to lessen the radius to make it able to turned off and on, that is also fine." Moore nods. "Also, wow, no wonder we had so much trouble sneaking in there..." He shakes his head.

"Finally, this is more of a custom request. I'd like to have something created that can be used at any time to grant certain spells to people." Moore says. "Think of something like a cube that can be touched to grant those who touch it the magical armor that mages use, but an unlimited amount of times." He explains. "I can imagine it's possible, just... well, probably like the ring, I'd imagine there's a cost, especially with the magic that I'd like to have put in it. Again, I have no qualms with repaying favors for something like that."

[Anastasia]

"That magic is possible and you would know," Sunrise says, "I have heard talk of Afina's works on Aurora, such craft is possible but expensive. It makes it work for immortals." Looking at you with a face of light and fire, "How difficult it is depends on what spell, how strong it is and how many spells."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. He rocks back and forth for a while before he fishes in his bag and holds up his Mind Blank cube.

"I know this would be one component. Mind blank is something I think we should all have to protect ourselves. Let me think..." He taps his chin. "The strongest mage armor..." He taps his nose once. "Honestly, those are the two major things I think my group is missing. Everything else I think we can manage on our own. ...Ah... this is more of a wish than a necessity, but I know Afina had worked on a spell that gave her perfect vision. I think it was modified from somewhere else, though."

So to be clear, Mind Blank, Epic Mage Armor, and Dis/Afina's Perfect Vision. We could further modify the last one to just say Erathaol's Foresight or something, but it's the same spell.

[Anastasia]

Paste me the stats of the cube?

[Nephrite]

Cube is a 1/day CL 15 Mind Blank.

[Anastasia]

"A far cry from this cube, mighty as it is," Sunrise remarks, holding it up into the light, studying it. "But not impossible under the light that shines from above."
