A Teacher for Laynie: Mystery at the Academy (Part 2)

[Rystil Arden]

*Elektra gasps.*

"I think I'm detecting a suspicious coincidence..." she says quietly.

 

[Bront]

Vanitri nods. "Me too, but what are you thinking?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"This unnamed thing...it requires sacrifices of intelligent beings. And intelligent beings are disappearing, so..."

 

[Bront]

"Yes, so they're being kidnapped for this ritual, and it's someone I know and recognize when he, or she as it appears, is revealed, but it suprises me. Unless that part of the vision isn't accurate. However, if Dolder was grabbed, then we likely don't have much time, as I wouldn't be suprised if one of those sacrificed needed to be of the same species."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"It's a possible future, but that possible future may not have expected you to go to the library and find that out. I think you're right that Dolder is in danger, if not already dead."

 

[Bront]

"You could be right. Still, it's disconcerning, and I'm a little worried about Rayne."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"What about Rayne? You mean worried she might tell on you?"

 

[Bront]

"Worried that she might be involved. I don't know, just a feeling I guess."

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Elektra shivers.*

"If Rayne was actually involved, that would be chilling," she admits, "She's in such a position to do what she wants with us."

 

[Bront]

Vanitri nods. "Other than our suspicion, all we have is that Kharisa was down there, and that's explainable enough to not be helpfull. Still, we need to start looking around for this device. We should get Truman."
