Daisy points at one of the flowers. "That's me, Sir, and that's Pansy, Lotus, Bramble and Daffodil, Sir. We couldn't figure out how to draw Lichen, Sir, but since we used one of his shed scales to draw, Sir, we figure he's added to it as well, Sir." As he speaks, he points at one of the flowers with each name.

    "That's really nice," Justin muses, looking over the tablet. He also now knew the Lizardman's name. "But I don't know if i should deliver this or not, though. Cessie, the fire lady, said she would come visit soon, so you could give it to her yourself then, but I don't know when exactly."

    I do have a mission that I need to go on. Maybe Valaria could go with me as a form of atonement?

    "I could do both. I mean..."

    Clarissa's right hand clenches into a fist. She elevates it to a ninety degree angle from the ground and opens her hand faster than the eye can register her movement.

    Black orbs violently swirl around her arm. Dozens of them twirling this way and that. Guilty souls heavy with darkness and sin.

    "They were murderers or worse and I don't want to unleash evil souls upon this world. But I could transfer them to you and you could try to treat them or free them and I couldn't be held responsible! Press your palm to mine if you want these."

    "As for you, Zero. What are you up to and how can I assist?"

    Nicholas nestles himself in Salix's arms and purrs some more. He's going to do well in a campsite full of children.
    Sophie, meanwhile, turns back to Yuki. "I don't know if I can help, of course. But I can try."

    Sophie peers at Zero. He hasn't managed to prevent Valaria from her latest stunt, but he does mean well... and he can't be blamed for being away.
    "The only thing I'm going to do with those souls is try to send them to their appropriate afterlives. Noone deserves to have their soul bound this way, not even murderers. As for your suggestion, Zero... well. If you promise to keep an eye on her and make sure she behaves well, I think it could work."

    Reelshka looks back at Andy and sighs.
    "Come on, Andy. It's high time you made up with Pathfinder anyway. There's no reason for you two to quarrel." In addition to all other reasons, it's highly inefficient if two GLoG council members won't speak to one another.

    "Anything you could try would be appreciated."

    Yuki figures that anything she tries to do to regain her memory might not work, but she has to try anything. Not being able to remember anything is just so frustrating.

    "I don't get it. What's so evil about soul absorption or soul currency? In heaven, basically the same thing happens to them. The logic is different but that's about it."

    Valaira is genuinely confused by Sophie's sympathy toward tainted souls and her aversion to what Valaira chooses to do with them. In any case, Sophie should now probably be in possession of dozens of sinful, unrepentant souls!

    "I don't care about what any sort of heaven does. I care about what I do and I think that using people's immortal souls as currency is reprehensible," Sophie says sternly. "Alright, Zero. You can take Valaria on your mission, but keep me updated."

    Sophie, with the little dryad and her cat occupied, can focus on talking with Yuki.

    "She's not normally made of fire. She has a human body and everything. She was just pregnant at the time and didn't want to risk herself or her baby, so she made a magical fire body. Good preparedness though." Justin explains. "You'll recognize her, though. She's the same in the face, has black hair and normally wears a blue dress-robe-thing."

    With that, she'll lead the caped man to the hut alone and knock on the door.

    "Alright. If I'm not here by the time you get back, you can find me in the Maple Cabin."
    She'd rather not crowd the infirmary too much. She doubts that she'll be leaving anytime soon, though, since Salix and her cat seem to like each other.

    "Well, she'll introduce herself as Cessie," Justin adds, "and she'll look like I said. She'll clear up any misconceptions with the others. As for Lizzie, I'm surprised you don't call her "That Evil Bitch" every other sentence. I would. Hell, I do."

    "More power to you then," Justin admits with a smile. "I'm glad you've got your philosophy worked out." Justin also really likes the old trope of telling a villain "they aren't worth it." No better way in the world to demoralize a bad guy than cutting at their pride. He's used it once or twice himself.

    "I will admit, however, that if Lichen has the chance to do what, I understand, is a cultural tradition regarding criminals with regards to Elezibethele, I'll not stand in his way, Sir." Daisy doesn't quite sound embarrassed to admit it, but it's clear that whatever Lichen's culture does to criminals is not something he'd ordinarily advocate.

    Pathfinder's Hut - Reelshka

    Pathfinder laughs a bit. "They wouldn't want her to spend a week or so with a tribe of primitive wolf-people who'd rather die than let harm come to her?" He jokes, knowing that he's likely reinforcing the point Brinika's parents would make. "Even so, it might be worth it to ask, just in case. It is useless for someone to live just in this place and one other without actually going out to see the world."

    Pathfinder's Hut - Keo

    "What do you hunt with?"
    The Wolfen asks. "I generally use my claws and whatever lies at paw. I used a rock for that." He says with a nod to the skin.

    Pathfinder's Hut - Levi

    The hut is quite deep into the woods, in a small clearing that has just the one entrance with all the others sealed off by thorned brush at the moment. The Hut itself is quite large, easily capable of providing shelter to a family. If Levi can sense it, he'll be able to tell that a nearly uncountable number of nature spirits inhabit the place, hiding in the soil, trees, and the very stones themselves.

    Pathfinder himself is tall, over six feet and covered in thick tan fur. His chest has red chevrons dyed into the fur and one of his paws is covered by a thick bandage. When they approach, his ear twitches. "How can I be of service?" He asks with a sniff of the air.

    "I use my claws and teeth,r!"
    Keo reaches to show Pathfinder her claws. Sharp, and not too large but not small... they could do severe damage if Keo knows how to use them. Pathfinder will also get a look at some of the linen strips that Keo is wrapped in under her cloak.

    Pathfinder's Hut - Keo

    Pathfinder holds up his own large claws and raises the sides of his muzzle a bit to show off his long fangs. He does so in a non-threatening manner of course. "When would you like to go? I cannot say what all is around this area since the game changes quite often, but perhaps you should show me how you hunt on your own first. I can adapt to suit your style."

    "Imagine," Copi speaks, "If you were a normal individual that was suddenly given the ability to feel the ebb and flow of magic without having an understanding of what magic is. You would get the information, but without any training it would be a lot of gibberish and might be a sensory overload. In addition, the world is chock full of magic and everything is constantly shifting."

    "Plus she doesn't know about physical existence."

    "So it would be like feeling magic move in the fourth dimension. Not only do you have no idea what you are looking at, but you have no reference to try and understand it."

    "you designed it, right Kate?" Eric says simply, "What are the chances that you programmed something to simulate that sort of intelligence into it? That if it was described and shown, it could understand shapes correlating to individuals?"

    "You approve of eating her alive?" Perhaps Justin should have clarified Lichen's position before agreeing with it, even in such a roundabout manner. Daisy has a small smile, as he realises that Lichen's tribal customs are not ones that Justin is aware of and therefore Justin didn't know to what he was agreeing.

    "I don't know. Probably, eventually? It remembers, it's self-modifying, and I'm pretty sure that it pulls definitions off of Dictionary.com when it comes across a new word. It might even be able to access other programs on the computer, I don't know. Sight is something that will come, yes, but I don't know when... it would be best to give it some context before doing that, but how do you explain senses to something that doesn't have any senses?"


    Copi suddenly zones out completely. Kate winces when she sees this.
