Emancipation

[Corwin]

"Pretty much," Seira agrees. "And given all the followers I've got, I had my chances to see all sorts of environments I haven't traveled in before. That's pretty nice!"

[Anastasia]

"I find it troublesome to go down, most agree. Better to have a golem do it, if you can afford the money, or at least use remote spells to scry." Zonnas says, "But you didn't come here to discuss oceans?"

[Corwin]

"I came to make a friend," Seira tells him cheerfully. "Although I did want to ask for your thoughts on dimensional travel research I've been working on. I'm trying to crack the ritual described in the snippets I've managed to track down."

[Anastasia]

"Research, eh?" A look as you're considered, "I could use something new to look at."

[Corwin]

Seira is quite happy to present her research into the Calley notes. And hey! They're actually pretty far into unlocking the true ritual by now!

[Anastasia]

They are examined silently. As he works the golem comes up and opens up again, this time pulling out a steaming cup of cider. "Refreshments," he asks to you, "I don't think I've ever served a deity before - I'm doing good, aren't I?"

[Corwin]

Who's a good golem? You are!

"It's pretty great," Seira agrees, quietly so as to not disturb her host. "Grouping us all together is probably a bad idea, so best is to be kind and polite and play things by ear. That kindness is either returned in kind, or you don't want to get to know the goddess better anyway, right?"

[Anastasia]

"Right," Is the agreement, "Who wants to get to know someone like...well...a lot of them?"

Meanwhile Zonnas works away, "What manner of deviltry are you working on?" he murmurs.

[Corwin]

Seira gives the golem a thumbs up, accepting the delivered cider. At Zonnas's question, she hums. "This research is about finding unique applications of dimensional travels, as I've mentioned. Merely through my work reconstructing it, I've made advances in my understanding of the dimensional links and the way astral tunnels across them. Beyond that... let's just say that the Illuminated Heaven has a vested interest in having me bring this ritual back to life."

[Anastasia]

"I assumed so," Is all Zonnas says to that, getting up, "If you excuse me, please enjoy my hospitality while I work on this."

[Corwin]

"Certainly!"

[Anastasia]

Going to do anything or just wait?

[Corwin]

waiting's fine

[Anastasia]

Several hours pass before Zonnas returns, "I confess, some of this is outside of my areas of focus," he says, but passes over several scrolls. "But these are my observations and lore relevant to it."

[Corwin]

"Thank you so much! I'm that much closer, now!"
