A PSYCHIC FEELING THAT TOUCHES ALL OF DRAEGA
[At sundown, twin blasts of Opal and Rose slam through a wall in the Queen's Residence. Those living in the Residence and those nearby hear cries of alarm. Smoke is visible above the buildings throughout the city. Everyone in the city feels a sudden, sharp punch of power: one of the Blood shooting downward into the abyss with startling ferocity.
Moments later, three ripples of power expand outward from the Queen's Residence. One is shallow and superficial. The Blood recognize it as a blast of power just above the level of the White; the landens feel it only as a vague sense of unease.
The second comes at the level of the Rose, and the final at the Opal.
Shortly after, those who reside in the Old Town Bazaar begin to hear a haunting dirge. A woman's voice, sad and full of mourning, fills the still air. Night darkens the city, and the song spreads with it. From Old Town to the Guild Halls, up into River North and the slums, and from there to River East. The melody echoes through the docks, curling around warehouses and ships and reverberating strangely over the water.
Long into the early hours of the morning, the echoes of the song linger.]
A PSYCHIC LINK, FAYURA TO THE STRANGERS
[The quiet, psychic contact comes with the dawn. For those who have felt Fayura's psychic presence before, this touch feels much more distant. For those who haven't, she brushes against your mind with great caution and respect as though knocking softly at a door for fear of causing a disturbance. When she speaks, her mental voice has a hollow, tiny tone, much like that of an old telephone call for those who understand the analogy.
She is tired. She sounds tired. Grief makes her voice rough.]
Thank you. For finding the coven, I thank you.
The witches Amanita Nissa, Harrin, and Little Blue are dead. They have become whispers in the darkness. This is no easy thing. I know many of you will be displeased to hear they have been executed, but this is our way. Shattering the mind of a young Queen—of anyone who wears a Jewel… there is no greater crime.
The streets are safer without them.
Specific thanks to Guts, Daylight, and Mordred, who were each responsible for bringing in one of these witches.
THE MORNING NEWS
[Garret and Wilt are the perpetual news anchors. Their broadcast begins when most people are sitting down to breakfast or have just come in from morning chores on the farm.
Garret:] An official announcement from the Queen of Hayll confirms the executions of the Black Widows Amanita Nissa, Harrin, and Little Blue early this morning. Per the announcement and in accordance with ancient tradition, their Jewels have been shattered and their minds… burned out?
[Wilt, speaking slowly for once:] This is, of course, in reference to the old mythology that the Blood can become demon-dead. The body dies but the mind lives on, resulting in a kind of undeath driven by the power of the Jewels.
[Garret, cringing:] The Queen has declared that she will hold court between the hours of six and nine at night to accommodate those whose work hours are less flexible should anyone wish to inquire after the decision to execute these three witches.

Can we meet up somewhere, um, private in a bit? Like, soon as possible?
There's something I want to talk about but- [ he pauses, unsure of how to say this without it coming off as alarming and stuff. ] I want to be sure certain stuff is between us since we're friends!
[ ...
.... not the best excuse, honestly, but he hopes the meaning behind the words is clear. 'i trust you and want to keep it between us.' ]

I will be there. You need only give me the location. [Once again, said without hesitation. Takame agreed to the request under anyway but whatever Daylight had to say he would not underestimate.]

Old Town Bazaar. Do you remember the The Last Meal? The restaurant where- [ he pauses, the memory of what happened when he first arrived still painful to him. ] -that we had to help with, a few months back?
We can meet there, if you want.

I will meet you there.

And- [ he pauses here, feeling a little bit sheepish to ask this but he's got to ask: ] Be careful, okay?
[ daylight noticed there weren't a lot of them left now and he's worried. standing strong and being strong is super important in times like these so he's got to make sure. he's gotta...! ] If you ever need help from me on, like, anything- Let me know!
We've got to stick together. Especially in times like these.

He may never get used to such treatment is all. Even though he appreciated Daylight's compassion and he headed towards their meeting place.]

[ day does his best to sound chipper and optimistic, even if his spirits are failing him a bit at the end here when he thinks more and more about what could happen to them, later down the line.
but!! he tries! especially for a friend of his like takame. it's the least he can do for his fellow
puppy power paladventurer. ]See you then!
