Re: Avoidance
“I am sure Shih,” Dlarumei says. “As one who follows Sarku you follow the belief that what doesn’t kill you only makes you wait longer for the perfect peace.” She chuckles a rye chuckle at her joke and stands. Pulling her robes about her and ensuring they fit snug, she moves to her appointed station with the vile that Ssrivan has given her.
“My friends, I think that it is important that you understand that the number three seems to be playing a major role in our little adventure. I know that Ssrivan has had his theories and conjectures but notice the three figures, the three passageways in the last room we were in, the one of three spheres we seek. I am not sure how this plays into what will happen next, however, there may only be three of us who make this next journey. Ssrivan, your scribe, one who you have drawn close to over our journey may not be able to travel with us. If she stands a chance at all she will need to hold onto you as tightly as possible. She must stand with you as one, breathing the same breath, heart beating the same beat. If she remains here she will parish for sure. If she attempts to come with us I can make no guarantees for her surviving our journey either. For that matter, there are no guarantees for any of us. We are playing with technologies we know very little about and while I am sure we are in the right place and I am fairly sure that we have struck upon the proper procedure, I am not sure of the outcome. I do know that we will die if we stay here so either death will come quickly or it will endure for weeks. I think we should all take a moment to prepare.”
Dlarumei slides her ebony mask over her face, this symbol of the prince of the blue room has been missing from her outfit for some time and it seems odd that she now uses it. She slows her breathing and begins to concentrate on the task, her arm causing her enough pain that small whimpers can be heard between her mystic words.
