AGELESS CAMPAIGN, Episode II, Part VI.

Colonel Hassan says, "I hate to have to interrupt this mutual admiration society, especially since I am also a member of it, but we really do need to prepare before General Orabi arrives. Princess, as Mr. Eastman has emphasized, you must not interrupt. However, due to your prior associations with General Orabi you could be of a great deal of help to us both. You know the man, whereas we do not. If we could devise a method of non-verbal communication in advance, for you to signal to us if you beleive he is being truthful or not, it would be very helpful."


George chuckles "Indeed Hassan you were quite involved with those exploits, for which you wear new brass. But you are right. Oh to have Ruby here for spells of truth, but that would be like throwing kerosene on an open flame. Perhaps it you adjust your right earring if you feel he is being dishonest?" suggests George.

She says, "That I can do. And I will not interrupt, or speak unless called upon. But what should I do if I feel that we need to stop the discussions in order for me to tell you something more than just dishonesty on his part? I would not do so unless I felt it was absolutely necessary."

"What?" "A spell, go ahead," Callum said with a quick nod.
"Alright," she paused a moment, then flicked her finger, releasing several small globes of light that should hover around the room casting a warm glow.

Abby is temporarily blinded by the brightness as twenty large globes ranging is size from 18-inches to five-feet in diameter appear, each radiating out almost blinding light. The ambient temperature in the carriage house also immediately rises at least twenty degrees, the heat coming form the miniature suns that are now nearly filling the building.

"Dear heaven!" she exclaimed, and quickly waved her hand again, canceling the spell. "How do any of you do anything small around here?"

"Hrmmm, something unobtrusive so it is not suspicious. The left earring? no we don't want you fiddling with your ears all day. Ah, the bracelets, push your bracelets up your arm from your wrist high upon your forearm and I will call a recess and we can step outside."

He says, "It becomes less intense as you get further away from the well. You are currently standing directly on top of it, the well is right beneath this floor. This is where the power is at its maximum level, approximately twenty-times normal intensity. The nearby barn is at around ten-times normal intensity, and the castle varies from three-to-seven times normal intensity depending upon where you are in the building."

"You could have warned me, I wouldn't have done something that could have burned us to a crisp," she breathed, adrenaline still pumping.

"That level of power is... well, unbelievable."

The Colonel says, "That does it, they're here." Everyone seated at the table stands as figures approach the outer door and the two closest ogre guards open the.

George recognizes the first man entering as General Mahmoud Fehmy, who is Orabi's second in command. He does not recognize the General who follows. The third man to enter is Ahmed Orabi. A trio of low ranking officers follow, then the two scribes, after which the Ogres close the door. The three aides move forward to pull out the chairs for the generals. Everyone continues to stand.
