[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 6011830, member: 12460"] The psicrystal moves up and down as if nodding in assent to Alise's telepathic command, but she knows deep down its own tendency to mislead is bound to creep into its report. It moves up along the wall swiftly and effortlessly, like an insect creeping. About 30 feet up, it comes to the window and pokes its body up against the frame. The psicrystal relates what it sees telepathically:[sblock=telepathy to Alise][COLOR="Yellow"][I]I see a gathering of numerous flesh beings.
