Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Dilaa nods. "I see. I guess I thought Garmine was more different from most of Khorvaire than it actually is," she says. "Though I find myself on expeditions more than not, so I doubt I know it all that well," she continues, then pauses. "Oh - you aren't one of those who dislike weapons, are you?"

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
"Would you be able to give a good description of her location? Preferably, a single spot there. It would make visiting her much easier.", Shaisane replies, if these women can't help Wotcher, she will have to look elsewhere. She can't allow Wotcher to suffer. Or anyone for that matter.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Tulip looks confused, but after a moment, she nods.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Tulip starts looking around, but soon realizes that there's a critical flaw in this plan, and she returns to Shaisane, landing on her shoulder, looking at Shaisane, and looking sad herself.
"There isn't anything I can draw with here! Maybe you have something?"
Spoiler: OOC
I wanted to say something regarding Tulip's socked feet, and Shaisane's bare shoulder, but I don't know if Shaisane's shoulders are bare.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
"Could you perhaps show it in another way? Magic runs strong in your kind, and I was told that there are those who can show the most wonderful of visions.", Shaisane replies. She hates being touched, but it's a price worth paying to help the poor Wotcher.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Tulip smiles happily at Shaisane's suggestion.
"Ok! I can do that! See!"
After a moment, and a short chant, with some explanatory gestures, an illusion appears all around the group, looking exactly like Dahlia's garden, as Tulip had last seen it, with the lovely flowers, the wonderful trees, and the cavern it was in, all created in perfect detail. At least, as Tulip remembers it. The colors are extremely vibrant, and it somehow conveys the sense of being bigger than it is. In fact, the sound of the water flowing, and a gentle breeze are audible, and the air feels slightly cooler.
"Her garden's really nice!"

Yep, that's the save.

"Only in the hands of those who don't need them." Sister Tine answers matter-of-factly.

Lileia and Dew sit to the side, barely participating in the conversation for the most part, until Dahlia is brought up as a serious option. "That's the name of The Alchemist, as I understand it." The slender elf comments. "She works under commission; that is to say, if you have something specific you'd like made, she could create it for you. I'm not certain whether she could diagnose something herself."

Tulip smiles merrily, the illusion of Dahlia's garden still filling the room(Or at least 13 10 foot squares of it), before she responds.

At Shaisane's question, Tulip looks downcast, but then, after a moment, she brightens.

"Mei? Who would this be, and where could we find her?", some hope returns, but Shaisane doesn't really dare to hope. She doesn't like the petal, but she can bear it. Even if somewhere, deep inside, she finds that she actually does care for the little creature.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
"And would you know which power she offers her prayers to?", Shaisane asked. She didn't like priests, or clergy in general. They were based on a more primitive understanding of the world, relying on divinity and tradition, instead of reason and cold logic. She loved logic, it was the only thing making sense in the whole world.

"Could you maybe describe her? Or better yet, show an image of her? Perhaps she bears symbols that could be used to identify to which grouping she belongs.", Shaisane reasons, desperate for a lead.

Shaisane carefully examines the illusion of Mei, for any sort of symbol that she can place.

It takes all of two seconds for Shaisane to identify Mei as an adherent of Ilmater, from the red cords wrapped around her forearms.

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Shaisane suppresses a sigh. "The Faith of Ilmater claims that he cries because of all the suffering there is in the world, and he will only stop if there is no more suffering and pain. Which unfortunately is rather hard to achieve. But every good deed makes him slightly happier, while every bad and selfish one makes him cry more."

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
Tulip looks somewhat baffled at Shaisane's explanation.
"But... that's really silly! Making yourself suffer because people are mean only helps the meanies be meaner! It's much better to just be nice, so you can show them that being nice is much more fun!"Spoiler: Current Character List:

Re: Devil's Deal IC 7: The Color of Garmine
"Yes, but gods are silly creatures. Very silly even. And it's not making himself suffer, the evil simply makes him sad.", Shaisane tries to explain. Why can't the petal ask about simple things, like impersonal metaphysics. Those are much more interesting.

"But what if you were incapable of helping? Hypothetically of course. And you could only see it happen. You couldn't do anything. Wouldn't such a thing greatly sadden you?", Shaisane tries again, not really understanding Tulip.
