Rising higher

[Anastasia]

The two only have eyes for one another, "Amazing," Kaja breathes, "What did you do with them?"

[Nephrite]

A deep breath.

Then another.

Sharress must really be into this.

"I'm sorry to interrupt." Moore says. "I'm going to Lifasa, and it's been insisted that I take someone who won't cause any wounds to the plane."

[Anastasia]

Kaja blinks and looks your way, "Ah. You need my services?"

"No, say it isn't so!" Villisa declares, voice heartbroken, "Don't worry my great dragon, I'll wait faithfully for you to return!"

Kaja turns to her, "I'll await our reunion eagerly, Villisa." He smiles, the two staring into each other's eyes. "I promise."

[Nephrite]

"..." Moore just reaches up to put a hand on his face.

"I'll make sure I return him safe and sound, Lady Villisa." Moore says with some resolute tone.

A wave of his hand and they're off! No, he isn't waiting for them to say which one will miss the other!!!

Greater Plane Shift to wherever Aurora is on Lifasa currently.

[Anastasia]

Aurora has indeed returned to Lifasa. It's on a sunny plain, Kaja sighing. "Oh Villisa," he murmurs quietly, shaking his head.

[Nephrite]

"I'll get you back soon." Moore assures him.

He certainly remembers how to go inside, and a quick question to Elena (and a hello, how are you doing, of course) can find Adrian.

[Anastasia]

Elena pops in, "Hi, Moore, hi new guy," she says, "Adrian's not here. He's at home with Misalea, do you know where it is?"

[Nephrite]

"Not a clue." Moore says. "I'm guessing it's somewhere on the plane?"

[Anastasia]

"Yes, just go have the gate make you a portal to it," Elena says, "It'll take you right to it."

[Nephrite]

"Can do. Could you do me a favor and see if someone can write up the needed materials for the sending orbs? I'd like to make some hand-held versions, if I could. There's no rush."

A smile and gesture to Mr. Mopeypants to follow him.

"Come on, perk up! You're in the fortress of Aurora! Look like you're impressed!" Moore says.

[Anastasia]

Kaja sighs at this, "So? It's not Villisa," he says, "Her twin fortresses alone are worth more than Aurora. They're just perfect."

[Nephrite]

"Right." Moore says simply.

WHAT DID SHE DO TO HIM?!

Calm, Moore. Calm. Peace. Serenity. Wisdom.

He will take one of the gate portals over to where Adrian is!

[Anastasia]

It's a house. A nice, multistory home, big and with a bigger yard. It's on a lane with several such houses. It's made of fieldstone and like a farmhouse, wood and stone with the paint being fresh.

Next door you see a familiar face. Elder Magi Tepen is in the yard, waving his hand as his grass is cut, adjusted and smoothed over. As you watch his lawn is trimmed, flowerbeds are turned and hedges are trimmed.

[Nephrite]

That is literally just cheating in every aspect!!

Moore gives Tepen a wave before he knocks politely on Adrian's door!

[Anastasia]

A wave back, a smile as you go by. Tepen leaves it at that for the moment as you knock.

"Coming!" Misalea's voice, the door soon open. She smiles widely, "Moore! Come in! Who's your friend?"
