( a smile from the man on camera, and a wave of his fingers against the backdrop of an ice wall. )

To those who know me not at all, or less well than others of our number do, I'm Wei Wuxian.

( hands lifted, he offers a polite, perfunctory sort of bow, paired to the clasping of fingers over the other hand's set. they drop out of frame, and he looks a touch more serious, dark eyes fathomless. or maybe it's all in the lighting. (the lack of proper lighting. torchlight keeps him flickering in reds and oranges.) )

The king mentioned Irenia in passing, the dragon? She was thieved away from a lord of death our group knows of, and has run into several times. His name's Anurr, he's the, ah, very slightly less horrible option for being enslaved by death lords, and from Sa-Hareth. Trailing after us with his creatures or his shifting loyalties, never trust his kind voice, Eleven can tell you about that! Five, I'm sure, can tell you more, as can Xie Lian, or Xiao Xingchen. All members of our group, as it were. Anyway!

( he claps his hands, and grins. a little crinkling around his eyes makes him almost seem truly merry, instead of merrily dry. )

Irenia lured far enough west can be called back to Anurr's dubious graces. Far enough east, and with a different strong pull on her mind, maybe, maybe we can free her. Either way, I recommend we do one or the other, because space to crash a being who never asked to be used as she is is limited, and using the keep itself in poor taste, as it defends this world from hell. Apparently. Very exciting stuff!

( ball's in your court now, chaos crew! )

If she cannot reason, she should be in nobody's hands.

[ Doesn't matter if the garden is Anurr or not, to Wrathion. All guardianship is distasteful. ]

[weifinder]

I agree.

Garden?? Thanks autocorrect, this thread is now about Anurr's garden.

[blackscales]

[ ... He cannot decide if this answer is a relief or not.

When you're all ready to be angry, the bubble of emotion being popped is almost disappointing. ]

Then let us hope she can.

If we seek to lure her, I might draw her attention. Considering her size I'm sure I will be faster and more agile.

[ He's not explicitly saying how and why, but Wei Wuxian knows. If Irenia has been captive in the hands of an undead lord, it's possible she hasn't seen another dragon in a while and may be curious enough to chase him. ]

his frozen garden of delights

[weifinder]

Would you be of a mind to draw attention, with or without the aid of a harvested creature of the lower levels?

cold yet beautiful

[blackscales]

If the plan was sound.

[ There has to be a destination, a plan for when she is lured there. Otherwise, Wrathion will just be luring her into a chase which must eventually end one way or another. ]

[weifinder]

Sound enough to hope it survives first contact?

[blackscales]

As much as any plan can be.

[weifinder]

So sound, into we all have to adapt otherwise, as it usually goes!

[blackscales]

Let me know if such a plan does form.

[weifinder]

Gladly! Let us take stock of this changing situation and learn in the meantime.
