Someone volunteered to be caught? That was brave of them.
[ Foolish, maybe, but absolutely the sort of crazy stunt she would be on board for. ]
That's amazing that it's still active! Is it moving around a lot? Are you able to tell?
Kelp... "Strange" kelp? I know my way around kelps and seaweed so I'd be curious to know what's strange about it. But the desiccated trees does match what I've seen as well. The land here is in need of serious repair. The gods want us to fix it.
Yes, two people did, actually. I'm not sure if they'll consider it worth it when we find them, but I hope so.
[ He feels very guilty about it, honestly, but that's how Jayce is. Even if they were both grown adults making their own choices, hearing more about how bad it is in there is worrisome. ]
Yes everything seems to be pointing toward north of Free Cities. Maybe past the crater, even? We're hoping to get readings in from Thorne as well, which will let us know if it's closer north to them. Once we find an estimated radius, I think we can focus our search. If all goes well, we'll be able to find them. The problem is how soon we'll be able to do it, but we're trying to hurry.
From what they said, it's because the kelp isn't native to the desert, obviously. It was displayed from somewhere like Aquila which is by the water. I have no idea what that might mean. It's possible the kidnappers are from everywhere and working together, but bringing their own details with them.
The gods? If they wanted us to fix it, why aren't they intervening with this group?
When we find them, they may feel that it was worth it.
[ At least that's how she would feel if it were her. ]
North of the Free Cities... that's interesting. With everything coming up about Josselyn I would think that they would be closer to Solvunn.
[ But that's in the opposite direction entirely. It doesn't mean that something hasn't originated in the Commune, of course. But, hmm... ]
That would make some sense since Summoned disappeared from every place possible. But that's also the worst case scenario, right? That there have been people waiting in every nation to strike.
If the gods are anything like Primals or the other gods I've met, they don't do things on their own. They act upon the wishes and desires of their believers. So maybe this is something that they can't do without us.
So she has strong ties all across the world. That doesn't bode well for us but it definitely makes it all start falling together.
Actually, it would make more sense then that she would keep it as far away from Solvunn as possible, right? To avoid suspicion. I have no doubt the Council would want to be privy to every one of her movements if they could be!
All that really matters here is that they're very real. I want to believe that could be for our benefit, though. If we play our cards right, maybe we can make them work for us even if they didn't before.
No, not that surprising. All these faction wanted the Summoned for their own reasons. Why wouldn't an independent source try to take advantage too? Our connection to the Singularity will always make us targets.
I think once we can prove where they are, or the vicinity they're in, they'll let off our leashes to get them back, yes.

I know nothing about gods, Himeka, but I trust you.

Date: 2023-03-20 09:35 pm (UTC)Exactly, I don't think they're in our factions. There are islands and parts of the Badlands above the Singularity that could be good places to hide.
I'm pretty sure with people that powerful, it's better to see if you can work with them. A partnership.

Date: 2023-04-06 05:05 am (UTC)Too dangerous to explore, right? Do you think someone would get leave to go searching that area?
Yes, exactly. So long as you don't end up enthralled or they're sensible to begin with, you can make it work. Probably!
