    Presumably, Maera and Eo arrive here; the synth-lady types on her typey-projecto-dealio.
    QUESTION: WHAT SORT OF WORK DO YOU DO

    "A little bit of mercenary work, some trading, though not much of that lately, and a few bits of freelance anything if I need more than that brings in, pretty much. Why?"

But when your girlfriend has just turned into an otter for no good reason, and then, once she was back to some semblance of normal, started her own equipment-free laser show, one does tend to be rather curious about what's going on, and this seems to be her best chance of finding out...
    [Sparrow's Fall, World of Eight Moons]

    Wow! Trium is so polite! Knocking on the mysterious door like that. So civil and well-bred is she that any ordinary door would budge for her, I'm sure.

    How auspicious is it, then, that this door is a mundane door with respect to how it is opened. Without a bolt or knob, the force of the rapping itself is enough to nudge it ajar. However, it is only passable from one side, that being the side from which it was opened, the one closest to Spec. A radiant white light shines out of this door, but, again, only from the side closest Spec. The other side will display nothing but the doorframe.

    And what is to be found inside? Why, nothing but an empty infinite expanse of white and a feminine presence floating in the middle of the realm.

    Trium goes to slip about half her body through the doorway, mind relinking as she does, since she has no intention of risking the door closing behind her and trapping her inside, or, for that matter, simply being non-existent, which would seem to be more accurate in this case.

    "So. You are the one who branded Spec, or at least the one who arrived just after she was branded? Why? What do they do to her, and what was your purpose in applying them?"


    The presence may notice that Trium has more magic flowing through her than most eldritch beings, demons, angels, etc., could contain, much less channel.
