[Trahearne doesn't normally use the video option on these devices, but he is now, and he looks troubled.]

I have discovered a brewing situation, and I believe I'll need help facing it.

Let me explain. I had a conversation with the Fool last month that lead me to think that something from my world might soon pass through to Aifaran. While I haven't found any proof of that yet, I've been keeping an eye on the news ever since, and there's reports coming in of some strange events happening outside the city. In one region, there's been sightings of aphaufa wandering away from their herds and curamjija going out of their way to attack people.

[There's a rustling sound as Trahearne lifts a paper map off of his lap, obscuring his face as he holds it up for the camera. There's a lot of little red 'x' marks, mostly congregating near a forested area on the archipelago.]

I don't know if this is related to my problem, but I have a feeling that I shouldn't ignore this. [He lowers the map just enough to see the camera again,] So, who's interested in taking a day trip with me?


(OOC: Consider this post an unofficial sign-up for a log I'll be doing soon! I'm only looking to take a handful of people, but don't worry about missing out, there'll be a game-wide portion of this plot in December for everyone.)

[Trahearne says it wryly,] It's nothing like that. I'm a necromancer, but there's not much call for that profession here. I found a employment at an antique store, and it suits me well enough.

[He knows he's told Bastien about being a necromancer a time or two before. Perhaps it's just easy to forget about.]

In that case, I'll pick up a bottle of wine on my way home.

[It's not that Bastien keeps forgetting, it's just that he's hesitant to accept that truth about Trahearne. His love for this green bean is still fresh and new. They're still learning about each other still and with that comes acceptance. Bastien is having a difficult time accepting that his sweet little fern can raise the dead. He just doesn't quite get it yet. It hasn't all sunk in yet. ]

H-Haha! [He chuckles nervously.] Maybe that's a good thing, no? No necromancy means no boney skeletons walking about lookin' for something squishy to stab.

[His thoughts think of that Aztec curse he heard about years ago. One that allegedly turned an entire band of pirates into undead monsters.]

Yes, wine! Make sure it be red.
