Students at Gabal's School of War usually had their own rooms, dormitory-style. “Thanks for stopping by,” he said to Hollister. “I was hoping I could pick your brain about fire-related magic. I'm working on a different way of charming] people, and I think you might be able to help. Here, have a seat.” Diogenes gestured to one of two chairs at a small table before sitting down himself.“Here, let me show you ...” Diogenes grabbed a slate and a piece of chalk from the tabletop and started writing. He showed his writing to Hollister. “I don't want anyone to overhear us,” it said. “Interesting, right,” he said? “So ...”“The Resistance needs help,” he wrote on the slate, erasing when he needed more room. His handwriting was angular and hasty-looking. “The Scourge will kill everyone here. The city council will not protect us.” As he wrote, Diogenes explained how charm spells worked. “We need to contact the Lyceum and ask for help. The Lyceum is a magic school in the city of Seaquen in Dassen. They want to help fight the Scourge. Magic-users unite!” Diogenes winked.“Meet the Resistance at the Poison Apple Pub,” Diogenes wrote. “Meet before midnight tonight.” “Tonight” was underlined twice. “Contact is a woman named Torrent. She is going to Lyceum to get help. Others will go with you.”“So,” Diogenes said aloud, “what do you think? Do you think you can help me work this out?”</blockquote>
