TCotM: Ashna's Idylls

Rystil Arden · Jul 24, 2007

"Alone my liege?"

Knight Otu · Jul 24, 2007

"Yes. It may be important." Ashna steps into the throne room and looks around for herself.

"Well, you did say not to disturb your musings unless we brought news of the results. Your other servants have steered clear of your private chambers, my liege," the mephit replies nervously, seeming a bit unsure of why this was asked.

*Ashna returns to the throne room to find that, indeed, it is still empty.*

Knight Otu · Jul 24, 2007

"Good." Ashna delves in her mind whether she knows the name of the mephit she is facing. "What are the results, then?"

Rystil Arden · Jul 24, 2007

*She does not know the name.*

"Again the elemental flow's energy output was too unstable and never recorded a result above the lower margin before the sentience eroded and they were unable to use your more advanced measure."

Knight Otu · Jul 24, 2007

"I see. Leave me alone for now, but come back in about two hours."

Rystil Arden · Jul 24, 2007

*The mephit bows and exits through the double doors.*

Knight Otu · Jul 24, 2007

When the doors are closed again, Ashna sits down on the throne for a few minutes as she scours her memories about whether she knows anything about what is going on here. Has she displaced a different Ashna in a potential future? Did the mephit seem to pick up the differences? If she picked up the other Ashna's body, why apparently not the mind?

Rystil Arden · Jul 24, 2007

*She doesn't seem to know anything about what is going on here. For the mephit's part, it did seem confused a bit, which could mean it picked up on some differences.*

Knight Otu · Jul 24, 2007

A pity I never started the habit of writing a diary, that could be useful here. Ashna thinks as she rises again and goes to the bedroom. She intends to examine the spellbook for spells she could currently cast, and maybe hints of transportational spells that could indicate whether she is on a different plane altogether.

(She didn't find anything else interesting in/on/under the desk, right?)
