A number of things pass through Jeanne-Marie's thoughts as burst through the crowds and interrupt Reyna and Freya approaching her. First that the woman's (dragon's? Some long-unused memory indicates that this woman is really a dragon) looks put even the Atlanteans to shame, but much more...

Jeanne-Marie makes her way through the crowd towards where Freya and Reyna. She doesn't want to interrupt their reunion and coming to grips with the situation - indeed her own mind is still spinning over what just happened - but she does want to be on hand once they start looking for others who...

Even in a city that is doomed, but not yet dead, there is too much time to think in Jeanne-Marie's opinion. While actually fighting, she can push back the regrets and the fears that tear at her mind in moments like these, but not now. The streets are burning and the buildings collapsing...

Breath's brow furrows in suspicion when Bright Pearl brandishes the scroll bearing a seal it most definitely should not. Calling upon the Essence of Jupiter that lives even within a reckoner, she produces a tiny, green spider and quickly sends it to the Loom with one question: "Who applied...

"Careful about mob justice," Spirited Breath whispers as the crowd begins stirring around them, "it is hardly a precision weapon. Perhaps we should move closer, to better intercept him if he runs."

Spirited Breath still cannot quite believe what her life has become. The fighting that defined her youth still burns in her heart, but her mind realizes that the war itself is over. That does not mean that there are no actions to be taken, no grudges to be held, or no revenge to come, but it...

"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)...

"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...

"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...

(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.

Seeing the others fly off into the desert, Kamara takes on the shape of a falcon and flies high, keeping well above the rest of the impromptu circle. As she dons its form for the first time in this new life, she feels flashes of memory of hunting it through sands much like these, but not quite...

"I know some burial rites," Zoya agrees as she takes in the fullness of the horror before her, "and though they have changed much in the centuries since these people were killed, I may consign them to the mercy of the Sun as well." Seeing so much of the room covered in runes is puzzling to...

"A golden sands lizard," Kamara answers, her body still and her blade still at the ready, "a dangerous predator, but not, I believe, a threat to us."

As the bestial screech interrupts the Exalts' conversation, it is as if Kamara started moving even before the sound made its way into the cave. With a graceful economy of motion, she orients herself towards the sound and with ears open and eyes peeled focus in on its source. OOC: 6 successes.
