[Anduin is on the 12th floor of Zenobius' tower, his mirrors, lights, glass panes and telescopes visible in the background. The lighthouse keeper himself is nowhere to be seen.]

There is a ship.

[Anduin does not waste time with niceties. There is no time for niceties. He frowns, a troubled look on his face, as behind him Lily and Joker converse with one another beside one of the telescopes.]

It's caught in the storm and headed this way. Zenobius -- signaled them over?

[He shakes his head, as if to clear a thought (they don't have time to question that now but also what is the purpose of this lighthouse?) and strengthens his resolve.]

They'll never make it to shore. The three of us -- Lily and Akira are with me -- we saw Zenobius leave his post. He seemed... Distraught. Without any way to guide their boats through this mist, the storm, and those creatures in the water...

[His expression draws tight with concern.]

We must save them.

((ooc: this post is in regards to lily, joker, and anduin's plot roll. threadjacking is more than welcome for all!))

Anyone who can fly or teleport could try, but you'd need the boats to risk getting close enough. There's also the matter of not knowing if Ellethia's cycles might begin to impact anyone who ventures away from the Lighthouse. It may be safe, or dangerous then safe once more past a certain point.

Ellethia's cycles, or the draw of the lighthouse itself for that matter...

Although the latter may not be as much of a bother. We may have someone who can convince them to leave. Again -- if they can get close enough to hear.

Which means either they must draw near to the coast, or. We may need to find a way to cross the mermaids and meet them halfway.
