[QUOTE="CPaladin, post: 8387163, member: 7030144"] [Session 60, cont'd] In the morning, we ask Master Farsensor to contact Singing Leaves to find out how Lord Davion is doing. “I have contact with the Master Redactor. Shall I project his image?” The elven redactor gives the Council a report. "It is no question as to whether he will survive. It is a question as to whether all of his injuries can be completely healed, or whether he will lose some of his mobility permanently. I do not know what attacked him, but it attempted to rip him in twain. It did not succeed, but it splintered his spine. We have him in Skin." "What of the Grand Duchess?" "She would have lived under our care. Her bodyguard insisted on returning her to her home. They committed her to the care of the Mouth." The Council presumes this refers to the First Mouth of Paranswarm. "I would not expect her to live without redaction. As for Lord Davion... he will remain in skin for 18 days." "Do you think we could send a redactor to the Grand Duchess, if they would not allow her to come to Singing Leaves?" "It would have to be a human—there are human redactors who are Masters, even one or two Grandmasters. I think they would reject an elf." The Council speak to the Minister of the Mind. "Do you have a Master or higher level redactor?" "Two, well, two Masters. Grandmasters are very rare, at least among humans." The Council arranges for one to go. "Do you want the younger one or the older one?" "Whichever is better." "The older then." [I think there's a slight continuity error here. I think Minister of the Mind is himself a redactor, but I don't think it matters whether it was the Minister of the Mind or another Master redactor. Also, it's possible that he was obliquely asking if he should go or the other, and I'm not certain he's actually our strongest/best human psion.] * * * Kit contacts Lady Elspeth, the spy mistress of the Grand Duchess of Ergmoth. Kit writes a note, then gets her scribe for help: Wing has arrived, we have some of the story, Lord Davion in the Forest of Singing Leaves in skin, Wing is currently secured in the heavens, we’re sending back the bodyguards along with a redactor to help heal the Grand Duchess, thank you. Response: Have informed First Mouth’s secretary. Will await redactor; none here. Grand Duchess stable but unconscious. The Council sends off some of the bodyguard and the redactor. The Council also deploys additional security and add sweeps to the graveyards, to make sure nothing new wakes up and to make sure there isn’t too much of an increase in crime from the Wing encouraging evil. The vollers arrive; they have a brief meeting with the leader of Lord Ethean’s honor guard. [End session 60] [/QUOTE]
