[ this time maya is on video!!! she looks Super Serious for once. weird. ]

The dead here have had their souls severed from their bodies. Some of them... I can't sense their spirits at all, and with the undead, the souls are outside their bodies, and tethered to them. That's why.... it's all so messed up.

I've talked to several spirits, and they say a tall, lanky man with brown-ish hair did this to them. We need to find this person and stop them.

Does anyone have any information?

[ ooc: she's talking about scylla! ]

Good timing!

If it's not affected by the power-nullifying stuff, that might be a great way to climb up the tower! Do you think you could give me a piggyback ride? And.... well... jump up a tower?

I could certainly carry you. I've done the same for a few friends of mine, though I conveyed them in my arms.

[ These were all men his height and up, and he may not have been able to offer them a piggyback airlift, but he's confident he can do so in Maya's case. ]

Have you a means of defense? We should consider time and angle of approach as well, it is like to be well-defended.

That works too...

[ she's small and portable. as for defense.... deflates ]

No, not really. I could bring a knife or something for self-defense, though... Um... as for approach and time, probably at night would be the best, right? Low visibility and stuff.

I should think night would be best. Ideally, we may evade detection, but we should assume that we would meet some form of resistance.

[ He doesn't want her to get harmed as a non-combatant, but he agrees someone doing such a thing to people here should be stopped. ]

If it should be the case, allow me to take point.

Yeah... if things go according to plan, then we'd evade detection.... but sometimes plans fall totally apart and you gotta improvise.

[ in other words, be ready for anything ]

Um.... Okay! Just don't get hurt, okay?

[ she's not going to say no to mr dragoon doing the fighting, but... ]

I am an experienced soldier, worry not.

[ Expertly evading the matter of not getting hurt, because he can't guarantee it, but he will try. He is, after all, the transportation.

And he plans on loaning her his chainmail. It's mythril so it's absurdly light... ]

If you make me worry about you I'm totally gonna let you have it!

[ she's deeply unserious, but this is her way of expressing concern... ]

But... let's do this.

I expect you'd be among company.

[ There are people who'd yell at him or shake him like a maraca or both. Or hit him with the world's saddest eyes.

He will do his best... ]

Let us convene after nightfall then.

But my wrath is the most terrifying.

[ okay maya. honestly, she'd probably do the eyes thing ]

Right! We can meet up then.

I shall lend you my armor at that time. You'll not find it particularly heavy, but it will protect you, and that will ease my mind.

[ Making it out to be something he benefits from should help her accept it, right? It might be a full length dress on her but hey, that much more coverage. ]

[ she'd accept it either way, she no desires to get hurt any more than she already is ]

[ more coverage ]

Sounds like a plan. Eat some good food before night time!

I shall do my best under the circumstances. Please fortify yourself as well.

[ They'll do great.

Until they run into guards at least... ]

Don't worry about me! I'm great at fortifying!

[ this is fine.jpg ]

I'll endeavor, though I have always been the worrying sort.

[ They've got this, possibly. ]

You gotta change that, or you'll get warts.

[ from being a worrywart... get it, dion... ]

...

[ Her reward is what is an inelegant little snort, coming from a prince. Not that he's mentioned being a prince. ]

Alas, I would bring it upon myself.

[ oh wow she made him snort. still got it ]

No skincare routine could save you!

[ It is, indeed, a rare feat. ]

Not even my light could fend off such scourge.

[ yayyy ]

Imagine having warts as a dragon. How embarrassing!

Like some great, winged toad, I expect.

[ They can use a silly mental image before doing something thoroughly reckless. ]

You don't want that, do you?

[ she's glad he's willing to engage in Shenanigans though ]

Heavens no. I'd never be taken seriously again.

[ He is especially if otherwise someone might be doing something unwise alone. Better to have company. ]

Exactly! So don't worry so much.

[ he's right, she would engage in inadvisable tomfoolery even if he didn't come... she is Determined ]

That will be a challenge, but I shall endeavor.

Well, good!
