Silken touch

"If we can even defeat it," Antenora concludes, "Which is the greater question aside."

[Ebiris]

"That's always an if," Alicia nods. "An uncertain reward for an uncertain risk. For now I think it best if we let the matter lie."

[Anastasia]

"Interesting and informative," Antenora concludes, "But ultimately no aid to us now. But perhaps we already have what we need?"

[Ebiris]

"In terms of having a counter for Shar's trick, yes," Alicia nods. "I'm sure we'll have reason to use it soon."

[Anastasia]

Thus, with that done...

Any immediate next move after this?

[Ebiris]

No, we don't really have anything on the docket right now. Basically regroup a bit and be ready to respond of shit kicks off with Shar anywhere or some other unspecified badness happens soon.

[Anastasia]

Okay, gimme a d100 while I formulate for you.

[Ebiris]

[18:08] <@Ebiris> roll 1d100
[18:08] <Penuche> Ebiris invokes Penuche's magic: < 3 > [d100=3]

[Anastasia]

You all settle in, the tension here even as you see to day to day matters. A few days pass with no sign of an immediate attack, or at least one that you hear of.

"Sister?" You practice. A mortal habit really, but one worth the effort. As you lower your practice sword, Jessica calls, "I bear news."

[Ebiris]

"Very well. Thank you for the spar," Alicia says to the sword archon she'd been practicing with, dismissing him and going off with Jessica. "What news, Jessica?"

[Anastasia]

"I've found evidence that Sharrans are intensifying activities and preparations across several planes," Jessica begins without preamble.

[Ebiris]

"Any pattern to it?" Alicia asks.

[Anastasia]

"Nothing that I've noticed, only preparations," Jessica says, "It's second hand knowledge, but reliable."

[Ebiris]

"Well lets go over it with everyone and see if we can figure anything out?" Alicia asks. "I'll call Emmaline back from Aurora if they're not busy in case she has any insights."

[Anastasia]

So getting your node + Emmaline together?
