"We've got four mostly intact half-wakers that you are welcome to, if you'd like. Whether or not you join me. It would be a shame to see them go to waste."
The giant spider thinks for a moment, pondering the offer. She slowly comes down to the ground. "Very well, I'll see what these intact half-walkers are that you offer me and decide then. Lead on, little one."

"You can see what I see?" Cherub thinks via psychic link. "Guess that means no freebie snacks under the table?"

I figured out a spell to let me talk with Cherub, my mouse buddy here. I also think I have a spell that can be used to identify different kinds of magic, though I think I need some kind of material focus for it. Maybe you could help?"
Cherub scarfs down on the food provided with tiny and adorable 'NOM NOM' sounds.

Ace sits down by Frost and pulls out several pouches of spell components. "Arcane focus you mean? Well, I do have one. Family scroughed up money for it... uh, scroughed? Sounds like scrounged and coughed... anyway!" He pulls out a small dark green crystal on a simple string.

"Arcane Focus. You channel magic through it and it replaces certain needs for material components. Useful, but if you lose it, you're screwed without components. I think I can convince Master Librarian to sell you one at the college."
