Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mad Hatter" data-source="post: 1820612" data-attributes="member: 23731">"I simply love the anticipation of it all.  There are three paths that I see that will get us to figuring the amulet out.  Regardless of what we do some preliminary research would have to be done.  With that in mind, I have just acquired full masterhood within the Technologist Guild.  I am very confident of my ability to create and build a device that can analyze the amulet.  That is not the problem or should I say challenge?  The challenge is "acquiring" the supplies.  Most of these supplies are hard to come by and most people would not wish to let these items go.  So there would be theft, ingenuity, and pitting ourselves against those who take issue with borrowing without permission.  Not to mention that some of the items I might require are in some hard to find places." Feiran pauses for a moment and then resumes.    Inner planes you say, Narine?  I scoff at that.  Adinal, maybe you will mark my meaning when I mention the word Mechanus," Feiran quirks an eyebrow and she looks amused.  "What's on Mechanus you all ask?  Well let me tell you.  On Mechanus is the Fortress of Disciplined Enlightenment.  It is a veritable storehouse of information, which is only one reason to go there." Feiran looks positively giddy at even the thought of all that information to be had on technologies past and present.  "Not just for this matter but for so much more!  Think of all the knowledge to be had!  It's also on the outer planes, so anyone pursuing us would need to be dedicated indeed.  Mechanus is also a very lawful place.  So you might be wondering what challenge is there.  The challenge is getting to Mechanus.  It would be planes hopping like we probably have never experienced before both in scope and magnitude.  We would need to get there and then get back.  But perhaps you are interested in the Proxies.  I reveal to you a description and a name: the mad Proxy Zaerlklemnvis the Misbegotten.  He is supposed to be a seer of sorts.  And as his descriptor so aptly describes he is somewhat mad.  The challenge to him is dealing with the various sect politics of Kelluna.  I have a small reservation about going here, however.  My family has a seat of government there and we are currently embroiled in something of a political war complete with sabotage, espionage, and a host of other things with a rival family.After Feiran says all this, she turns to face each person in the room.  She says:  "All of these will undoubtedly test us and push us.  I'm game for any one of these options.  Do you want to stay here, close to home, go to Kelluna, or really take the leap, and travel to far Mechanus.  So the challenge becomes how far do you want to go, Cagthail?  How far do all of you want to go?"</blockquote>
