I got an answer from Wlf on Discord. He's OK, but terribly busy:

@WlfSamurai I hate to nag, but it's been a while and I'm getting a bit worried, are you OK, friend?

The following is my suggestion: "This tower was hewn from the ground and the common rock and dirt turned into obsidian glass and laced with soulsteel," Zoya says gazing critically at the Abyssal Manse. "However, not all of that common rock was fused perfectly with the tower. The main part of the...

"I do know that," Zoya answers with more affection in her voice that she would have expected before setting out on this strange voyage. "I know that your strength is matched only be your confidence in it. No spirits are warning me that you would be unable to do this, and truth be told I am...

The light of Zoya's anima that still surrounds her shapes itself before her and she lets her hand slide down Sigrdrifa's arm. "The Heartroom will be somewhere underground, the higher levels are for servants, for keeping watch, and for geomatic purposes. To find your foe, and to hurt him, you...

Zoya reaches out and puts her hand on Sigrdrifa's shoulder, asking the other to pause for a moment. "That is no mere tower," she says with concern in her voice, "it is a Manse - the product of necrotic geomancy. It will be stronger than it has any right to be and might have magical traps for the...

Zoya follows Sigrdrifa's gaze with her own, the tower looming forebodingly before them. Letting the light still emanating from her illuminate her sight as well, she examines the tower critically, seeing beyond what is in the ken of mere mortals. OOC: Activating Truth-Rending Gaze (Ex3 p 332)...

Is the Tower visible from where we are? Sorry, it's been an OOC while since we had the description of where we're at.

Yeah, that sounds good. Also gives me a reason to remember that I have Truth-Rendering Gaze so that I can use it on the Clockwork bird... But using it on the Tower might be helpful to Sigrdrifa's plan.

He's a canonical villain, check out the Ex2 Underworld book. Zoya summarises it here: Shadows of the Setting Sun (Main)

Go team-kill-achiba!

"This was forged in the First Age," Cub says, handing the clockwork bird back to Sigrdrifa, "long before the tribes as they are today were formed. I do not believe that its creator thought of it as a spiritual totem, nor were they one of my people. While many in Whitewall like to think of...

Obviously, I get 3 sux.

@WlfSamurai I'm examining the bird. Can I do that with Perception + Lore or some such?

"It is by the power of the Unconquered Sun that I may purify their bodies and send their souls on their way," she answers as she holds up the mechanical bird to examine it. "Had we encountered this place before I was chosen, I would have helped you build pyres and say what prayers might help...

Zoya follows Sigrdrifa outside, her anima still bringing light to the dullness of the shadowland even if the golden flower no longer blooms above her. "When first we met I told you I was a priest as well as a sorcerer," she says softly once they are out in the open. "I do not know what role a...

"No," Zoya answers Sigrdrifa and walks towards the nearest of the dead. "These people deserve better than an improvised pyre in the room that brought them suffering in life and death," and with that she reaches out at touches first one, then another, and another. At her touch, each corpse is...

Sorry, I keep getting distracted. I'll have a post up today.

(Rolling pure Wits 5. 5 successes. Kamara may be an ignoramus, but she is a quick-thinking ignoramus.)

As Sabah decides to sit down and interrupt the goings on, Kamara flies closer to the Exalt and the circling crystal warriors. It's still not clear to her what is going on here, and who if any deserves her assistance.
