un : deft hand of little deaths (voice)

[scrapgege]

So, I talked to An- to Haltham.

[Is it a good idea to use Anurr's name on the network? Probably not, so let's stick to the other one. Most people know who this refers to anyway.]

Now, I'm not saying we should do what he asked because well, these people are still people, and they were enslaved a long time, and it feels only fair that they should be able to choose what they want to do with themselves.

But he says he might be able to help with their pain.

Except he also said that he doesn't know yet how.

.... That's not very helpful, is it? Sorry.

... It always is, no matter what you tell yourself. You can mess up a lot of things if you step the wrong way. It's one of the most powerful magics.

[reparo]

Undoubtedly true, yes, though at the same time it makes you wonder - if it's that dangerous, why give it to a fourteen year old girl so she can attend more classes?

[scrapgege]

Well, whoever did that is really irresponsible.

[reparo]

[She's not going to talk ill of the dead over here, though - yes. Potentially. Though, to be fair, they did rescue Sirius with her Time Turner.]

[Can you hear the sound of Subject Change.]

And how rude of me for interrogating you like this and not even asking your name!

[scrapgege]

Oh, I should have introduced myself first! I'm Xie Lian.

Hermione Granger. Hello.

[scrapgege]

Well met! You only just arrived, right? With the people who were down in the tunnels?

[reparo]

That's right - I am still getting used to this place. Well, not used to - settled?

[scrapgege]

We'll probably be leaving soon. We have to travel east, apparently, to find a portal that might help us go home. The problem is that apparently, all those portals are in cities controlled by the undead.

[reparo]

[Leaving? But she just got here! And she doesn't understand much of it at all!]

Ah, do you think so?

[scrapgege]

We've been here a while. Almost as long as in Sa-Hareth. And we've drawn more attention to ourselves here.
