[Sat afternoon]

[Dragon Mail: Alessia Saunders]

I was informed you may be able or willing to help with Bastan's present situation.

Contact me if this is true.

What did she tell you?

Warping, transforming, vanishing.

Not correct?

Correct.

Entrance I can accomplish. Your objective(s)?

[ same question, ha ha ha ]

[... is this Jordanx2 sans familiarity that gives Rhys tolerance?]
[he should be careful]

Securing the Spenta and the Vahishta.

Taking back the city, ideally. Inside information should determine how feasible that is.
Otherwise, we'll focus our resources on an evacuation.

[ ... hmm ]

I'll send a report within the next 24 hours.

Thank you.

[ sunday night ]

They monitor the rivers and the air as well as the perimeter of the city. The guard looks sparse, but considering the fact that rogues are involved, it is likely not as sparse as it appears.

They seem to have taken the paladin's headquarters as their base. The temple is being used as an infirmary. Prisoners who were not publicly executed were led to the paladin's headquarters, presumably to the dungeons. Bodies from the initial attack have been burned. Most civilians remain inside their homes.

I confirmed the Vahishta in the lowest level of the dungeon. There was a young man in a separate area, same level.

[Ezra...]

What kind of protection do the dungeons have?

Shadows. It is a place where those who would hide in them thrive. Holy magic lingers, though with the Vahishta's [ and spenta's? ] presence, I couldn't differentiate what was new and what was old.

A question better answered by a paladin, I believe.

Thank you for your information.

[There might be something preventing them from using their magic. He doesn't like that idea.]

How much of the rivers do they guard?

That which enters and leaves the city's remaining boundaries. Are you considering entrance through them?

I am. The other options are through the walls or over the sinkholes.

My guild didn't find success with the former in the past.
[And they don't have wings.]

They monitor from the ground level where the rivers intersect the wall as well as from the wall itself, but they lack the discipline of Bastan's guard.

[ former guard, anyway ]

How large of a group do you hope to enter with?

I'd prefer no more than a dozen entering.
But more would be leaving. We'll have groups escaping the rivers as well. The guild leaders, eventually. Though we'd need a place for another force to be waiting for refugees.

[...]

Are they disciplined enough to ignore the local fauna?

[ a goal alessia can get behind (unlike jordan, who would criticize it as idealism.) ]

If the local fauna acts as local fauna ought.

[Whelp. Time to teach some savage men to act like frogs...]

I see. Thank you.

Did you have anything else on your mind?
