Evo's eyes light up and he listens intently. "I wonder, idly perhaps, if we could just go back and retrieve the finger of Korvus at the time it was separated from its hand. I doubt Xorta would approve, though." He laughs. "That would probably have... undesired side effects." "I hope we have...

Evo wipes his face, the mark of a book clearly impressed on his cheek. "It's good to see you in any case, Jinn. Where would you like to start?"

A faint rustling can be heard, and perhaps a chair sliding against a bare floor. "Enter," calls Evo's muffled voice.

Evo bursts forth, wand in hand, looking for the danger that typically accompanies screaming outside his house. His eyes light upon Kai, and he relaxes, chuckling a bit. "Good news this time, eh? What do you have there?"

"As far as I know, it would be the "observatory," or possibly referenced as an "observation tower." He frowns in concentration. "I seem to recall there being some kind of relationship between Sedrith's spire and the Observatory proper, part of the same complex or something similar." "But I can...

Evo chuckles politely. "I'm sure I don't badmouth anyone, most certainly not the nobility." His eyes lend more than a little nuance to the simple assertion. Landing back on Kai, he smiles. "It's good to see you up and about, little fox."

Evo laughs. "I need to save some of the information gathering for you! That's all that Stern shared-- Lady Brighthammer did talk about what she needed for the Memory Sphere. You already have that information, I believe. Lady Brighthammer seems to think she can greatly improve on the original...

Evo peers at the schematic. "A half-sphere would need magic to be fully used. Note that the flat side faces away from the viewer, and you would be looking at the sphere side, the same as a crystal ball." He nods to Cato, and chuckles. "I don't know if we'll ever get things solved, but you and I...

"Were none of you present with Stern after the funeral? Mar, you were there." Evo shrugs. "It sounds like some of the details may have been lost with Phaesos, but Stern did say, in his heavily accented way, that the observatory was intended to remotely view the Dark Reaches, that the 'veil of...

Evo cocks his head. "Mar and Rohnan are working together to restore the Observatory. Is that what we're talking about here?"

Approaching from the Commons, Evo sees the gathering, waves affably, and comes over in time to hear Jinn's last few words. "What information are you missing?"

After a few more disappointed glances at his empty mug, Evo collects his things and departs.

Evo watches Rohnan depart, sighs quietly, and opens the book once again.

"Building trust, paradoxically, requires extending trust. It's always a calculated risk." Evo smiles. "But enough philosophy! I wish you success-- after all, your success is mine as well."

Evo nods in understanding and agreement. "I don't know if it's a human notion, or simply my own imperfect method of coping." He laughs. "But in any case, thank you." "I'm glad you find strength together, in your clan. And I hope that you can share that trust and strength far beyond your those...

Evo nods noncommittally at Rohnan's mention of happy memories, and pauses in thought at her question. "Thank you for asking." He looks pained. "I'm holding it together. I hope that's enough. A powerful, ancient, gentle being was murdered before me, and not only was I powerless to stop it, I...

The mage's cheeks flush slightly, but his eyes remain steady. "There-- there really is no story to tell. I have worked to aid Countess Gyverin in various ways since the blood plague. She has my respect and loyalty, and I her thanks and rewards." Evo shifts slightly on the bench, raises his brow...

Evo thinks. "I wonder if they even remember what the observatory is really for. We seem to keep discovering other secrets unknown to the guardians of this place, even ones powered by portal crystals. It may be up to us to fill in the missing pieces of this puzzle. If I understand correctly...

Evo listens to Rohnan's report with interest. "Good start," he says, and leans in. "Sedrith was once Al Zoon's master, before he broke free and became who he is today. A great, powerful, ancient, and frightening being. I don't know how he died, but his spirit lives on in a tower here within the...

Evo nods in agreement as Rohnan talks about Tengu, then chuckles a little when she mentions the weird itch. "If you're worried about what our enemies are up to, you're doing something right." His eyebrows shrink toghether as he muses, "I personally can't shake the feeling we're being toyed...
