- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "Is Romaan the source of the month's commotion, then?"
- (The Avowing): You say, "Commotion, my Lady?"
- (The Avowing): Cheliyi (from the Aetherways) says, "Ah, do mean the conversation Alarin and Avaris
- had earliers?"
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "I confess My curiosity as to its subject, yes."
- (The Avowing): You say, "Ah. Anointed Alarin should be able to elucidate."
- Singing drifts in from outside, faintly muffled.
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "My mother wanted to speak to me and, curiously,
- asked about the Order. So I told her what I could without revealing too much aside from the Tenets
- and Tavi's story. She seemed to be particularly interested in whether or not I believed the Lady of
- Lagoons would be worth assisting in healing given Her shattered mind."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "What was your answer, My Anointed?"
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "My response was to tell her that I believed so,
- unless to do so were to cause more harm than good. I also told her that it would be difficult to
- assist someone who did not wish to be helped, as many have witnessed the Lady of Lagoons do publicly
- due to Her inability to trust others."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "That is a curious thought. Given the Lady Li-varili's actions, what
- would you make of Her desire to be healed, I wonder?"
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "I hope I have not failed You with that answer, my
- Lady. It was the one way I could think to answer her without revealing anything."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "I asked a question because I was intrigued by what your answer might
- be, My Alarin, not because I sought to punish you for having a different one than My own.
- Regardless, you have not failed Me."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "I think She does desire to be healed, just... has
- not been willing to accept such help from anyone thus far."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "Though my observations are from afar. I've... not
- encountered Her personally just yet."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "Tell Me of your mother, My Alarin. From where does she hail?"
- (The Avowing): Auriella (from Celestia, Plane of Light) says, "Apologies My Lady for my rudeness. My
- mind has been rather absent."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "The Glomdoring, my Lady. She means well for the
- most part, it is just... intuition that tells me that there's something more to our meeting that she
- is not telling me."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "It is not rudeness to defend Celestia, My Auriella. You need not
- apologize for such."
- (The Avowing): Cheliyi (from the Aetherways) says, "If I can... offers my opinion, on Your question,
- my Lady? About Lady of the Lagoon's desire for healing."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "You may."
- (The Avowing): Cheliyi (from the Aetherways) says, "Personally, I... would not trust its. The Lady
- stole the Eye during the fight with the Forests, and was only unable to use its because She lacked
- the power alone. She might seek healing just to gain enough strength to wreak some sort of...
- vengeance, or somethings. And... She does not seem to like very many peoples, or Peoples. May just
- want to hurt the whole Basin."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "Her intentions are murky and difficult to discern, indeed, with little
- to commend them. I have yet to speak with the Lady of the Lagoons since Her return, though what I
- have heard troubles Me greatly."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "Aye, me as well, my Lady. I've been watching and
- am usually left with more questions than answers as far as Lady Li-Varili is concerned."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "It is a peculiarly specific concern for one of the Glomdoring to voice,
- however. I wonder at its origin."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "As do I, though I do recall a meeting between the
- Lady of Lagoons and the Silent Lord a few months ago. Perhaps that might have something to do with
- it, my Lady?"
- (The Avowing): Cheliyi (from the Aetherways) says, "From what I have heard from... my friend, the
- Silent One and Lady of the Lagoons were working together, to acquire the Eye from the Bloom of
- Serenitys. Even when She took the Eye for Herself, They may still be attempting to work with One
- Another."
- (Before the Veil): Auriella (from Celestia, Plane of Light) says, "She seems to be well versed at
- clouding Her intentions. Both from mortal and Divine."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "The Silent Lord remains ever elusive and difficult to comprehend,
- though I agree, My Auriella: the Lady of the Lagoons is far more incomprehensible. And dangerous,
- thus armed with the Eye of Dynara."
- (The Avowing): You say, "I do not think further cooperation is likely, after She betrayed the Silent
- One. Perhaps He is seeking to ascertain whether the Lady of Lagoons will seek healing, and thus be a
- greater threat. That may make You a target of His plots, as consequence, my Lady."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "I seen. Then it is a foregone conclusion that I will heal the Lady of
- the Lagoons, should the Goddess ask of it?"
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "I have had one encounter with the Eye of Dynara
- within what was once Lord Hajamin's Realm and perished instantly... I shudder to think what it could
- do in the hands of someone who could actually unleash its power."
- (The Avowing): You say, "I do not believe that it is, but others may."
- Singing drifts in from outside, faintly muffled.
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "This has been an elucidating conversation indeed."
- (The Avowing): Alarin (from the Aetherways) says, "I also do not believe so, but aye... others have
- somehow reached that conclusion apparently."
- (The Avowing): Cheliyi (from the Aetherways) says, "Do not know what You would want to do, since am
- not You. But, is not a surprising assumption for others to makes, I guess. But most Divine have
- recommended She come to You, even Lady Sculptor of the Waves."
- (The Avowing): Auriella (from Celestia, Plane of Light) says, "The Eye within the Temple of Hajamin
- was trapped. The Serenwilde has used the Eye in the past to join the two forests together. I guess
- it is all how the wielder wishes to use it whether it be used for ill or not."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "Then I suppose We shall see what the Lady Li-varili decides to do,
- should She approach Me. We have rarely spoken, She and I, even in the time before the Elder Wars."
- (The Avowing): You say, "May I ask what Your stance is, presently, on how You are likely to react to
- such an approach?"
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "I shall ascertain Her threat Myself, and Her intentions. There is no
- doubt that the Goddess has been in dire need of healing since Her return to the Basin of Life.
- However, the state of affairs in the Havens is not as it was when She first returned. The balance of
- power has shifted, and She must answer accordingly."
- (The Avowing): You say, "Thank You for answering, my Lady."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "Had She desired My healing, I have been present since Li-varili's
- return from the Namiraa Trench. Should She approach Me now, after Her failure with the Eye... It
- shall tell Me much."
- (The Avowing): You say, "Agreed. Will You tell us how You would prefer us to act, in response to
- possible further questing by the Glomdoring's creatures?"
- Muffled laughter echoes from somewhere outside.
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "If they probe you for information, I would have you do likewise and
- learn of the Silent's intents."
- (The Avowing): You say, "As You will it, my Lady, so it shall be."
- (The Avowing): Auriella says, "She appears to me to be wary of trusting anyone at the moment, which
- is both understandable and brings wariness as well. Perhaps She is not wishing to show vulnerability
- by asking, but then one has trouble knowing since She is so versed at hiding Her true intentions."
- (The Avowing): Lantra says, "It certainly does not bode well."
