un: a civil serpent | video
( Emilia di Carlo's hair has seen better days.
It looks suspiciously nest-like, and one of her sleeves singed and torn. The further she and Wrath walk back into the village, the more she feels it: the mark of hollowed things. The withered trees and the dying river beds. ... To say they have missed out on recent developments is an understatement.
But they do not come without news of their own. )
We were able to go very deep into the volcano and discovered something in the process.
( For this rare moment, Wrath appears to be somewhat disheveled as well. His hair is out of place. There's light scratch marks upon his cheek. His suit is singed. His sleeve on the right sight has been entirely burned away, revealing a muscular arm. In his pocket, he carries with him a piece of what they found though he has little interest in mentioning that out loud just yet. He wants to understand what it is first, and so he glances at Emilia with a grim nod and then supplies further: )
At the center of the volcano, an apparent naturally made mirror is being used as a cork to hold back a mounting level of lava, a potent flow of magic, and an unimaginable number of spirits. The pressure appears to be mounting.
( ooc: vi and i had a hiatus in april, and this help explains the absence of emilia and wrath during that time. EDITED the following day when i realized i missed a detail about the volcano. it was naturally made from a large pool of dark water. )

Is it possible to repair the mirror somehow?
[Not that she's eager to piece it together.]
no subject
It may be possible. The issue comes in bringing material down that far. The heat means few can withstand being there - people or supplies, and the mirror could break during the length of the trip alone, erupting and killing anyone who made the trip below.

[This would be worse than a funeral pyre, but perhaps there was a chance that she could find that miracle again?]
I could try?
no subject
Magic does work differently when transferred from our original worlds into this one, and so I would caution you on heading below, especially with no method to repair the seal. That is the most important point for us to discover - a way to repair the seal or relieve the pressure.
