[Jaunt] Fear! Fire! Foes! Awake!

[willyousee]

[Usually Alcuin sticks to thoughts only on the Network, so his urgent voice live-streaming in Investigator's minds may be the first time they have ever heard him do this - but the message is more important than the method.]

The Sun Temple will be under attack within the day! Soldiers - Sentinels they are calling them - march on the Temple and are killing any they come across, villager or monk. Messages are being sent conventionally, but there is little hope they will get through. We're rallying all that we have, but I fear we will be too few with so many gone to the summit.

Please, someone carry word to the heads of the provinces at the summit and prepare them! I doubt they are meant to emerge from that place alive.

[ he'd never been a proper war adviser, the whole... wicked business was mostly foreign to the O.Z. but he had attended meetings and made contributions where he could. then there'd been the Polkovnic, and hearing strategy from Ale...cuin is tugging on that thread as well. he's still not sure what if anything he can do with the information but he can be there. ]

All right, I'll head straight there and see if I can discover anything more from my vantage point. You be careful too, okay? I'll be there soon.

Wind to your wings and swift passage to you. [Someone else is remembering the Polkovnic too.] I'll do my best to see that the place still stands when you arrive. [You can practically hear the salute.]

I'm sure I can count on you, myshka.

[ well that's out before he can stop himself, and you can likewise practically hear the rueful smile as he breaks contact to get in the air.

AND WE ALL KNOW HOW WELL THIS WENT. ]
