[ The message that comes across the network is abrupt, as though the sender thought about sending it and simply did with no further thought. ]

I wish to learn more of the magic of your worlds, of this world. Not only how it works but how to use it.

I can offer a trade, should you require it.

[ After a moment, there's an addendum: ]

If you do not wish to discuss such things over the lockets, dedicate a shrine to the Outsider. I will know. We will speak there.

[He nods. True, true. Oh, here's something he'd find interesting:]

Every flight has it's own realm of influence; life, death, magic, time...

[extramural]

Every flight of- dragons?

[ziggyzoggy]

[He nods, just once. You got it in one, man.]

Dragons be grouped by their flights. Each flight be one big, extended family, and have a certain color specific to 'em.

[Which is hideously convenient for when you need to go collect 30 dragon asses for some inane reason or another. He just assumes they're all the same color because they're related. Yay, inbreeding.]

[extramural]

A color and a realm.

[ The Outsider nods, thinking this over. ]

Life, death, magic, time -- there are others?

[ziggyzoggy]

Hm. [Scratches the side of his chin. He's forgetting one, but...Oh, yeah.]

Only one; Ysera is mother to the green dragonflight, Keepers of the Emerald Dream.

[He smiles wryly and waves a hand; that's outside his sphere of knowledge.]

But that's a druid thing.

[extramural]

It sounds like a metaphor.

[ He's just saying. ]

Do druids ever invoke the sea?

[ziggyzoggy]

It ain't. The Emerald Dream be something of a realm outside of the realms. The druids travel there in spirit. There be stories of some getting lost there.

A druid wouldn't invoke the sea directly. The spirits they work with be creatures of land, sea and air. [Not unlike what he does, if he's honest.] But a shaman might. Though the spirit of the sea itself might be too powerful for most.

[extramural]

[ A brief pause, then- ]

It sounds like the Void. [ :c ]
