reallymean[Close on the heels of the witch's hat unfolding...]
There's something that troubles me about our last deployment.
[There would be more than one thing, if she'd been on the Jaunt proper, but the Walkabout had been relatively peaceful, much to her surprise upon returning to herself.]
While most of our number were elsewhere [no proper noun here; they haven't been back long enough for the usual gossip to have a chance to make the rounds], the rest of us were returned to the universe of Questing Country. Not to the dream realm itself - at least not in our full numbers, though I wouldn't be surprised if a few people took the time to visit. Still, unless I've missed something in the library, that would be our fifth return to that particular universe in some capacity.
[Sixth, if you're counting the strange half-Jaunts following Fortune's resurrection, which she isn't just yet.]
Leaving aside the concern that the Arcana's reason for revisiting that place might be similar to our last visit... It might be time for us to start looking more closely at the other places we Travel to, to see if we can find further connections. Our pool of destinations could be smaller than we've been assuming.
[And about an hour later comes a separate, shorter broadcast, this one sounding baffled rather than concerned.]
Where did these creatures come from? They're adorable, but they're everywhere.
[Including on the walls. Why are there small fluffy things on the walls?]
