@Camus: Yes... something sinister is afoot, alright.

Still waddling in the ocean, you spit some salt water as the waves hit your face. Thankfully, Griswold and the council will not become aware of this little mishap.

Archmages don't make mistakes, after all and Daun is a druid- she will never be able to master Cosmic Power the way you and only you can. She'll believe it.

Tucking a wet sloppy and highly irritated Thing back into your mage robes, you stretch out your arm for an equally wet raven Daun to nearly peck your eye out and focus on the closest place that would be familiar to both as the ocean water around you begins to churn like a whirlpool and unmake itself...

And then both, utterly drenched and smelling of the ocean, appear at the gates of Glenndale Park. Needless to say, it's freezing. You just too a dip at sea and back to a fog filled City? It's cold.


@Daun: Wizards...

Not one to waste time, yet another mighty spell envelops your raven self, granting you insurmountable strength as you dig your claws just a little deeper into Camus' shoulder and the wizard does his wizarding, taking you back to Glenndale Park.

Back at the beginning and drenched... but where to go from here?
