un: man's greatest treasure (video)
[ooc: This is set during the Annointed event of Unkharil.]
[The video shows the jungle for a moment, followed by a close-up of Hermione's face in the dark, illuminated by the Lumos spell at the tip of her wand. She looks wide-eyed, a little dishevelled, leaning against a massive tree trunk. She looks at the camera, trying to figure out the point she was going to make, opens her mouth, closes it. Pauses.
Then:] Drugs are bad. Prophecy drugs are bad. Don't do drugs, kids. [Another pause.] Are there even any kids around for this public service announcement? Probably not awake at this hour anyway...[She rubs one hand over her face, the wand still in said hand creating a bit of strobe light effect for anyone watching.]
Right - the point. I found the giant snake - not a Basilisk as I had suspected, given that I'm not petrified this time, but that's beyond the point. I have a vial for Deimar - and instructions, which I'll deliver, but I wanted to see if anyone else has...gone in? The jungle, for the anointment venom. [Merlin, this place is weird and these people are weird.]
For people keen to keep track - our Alem prince is meant to find who in his midst has bloodshed on their hands. I tried to ask if that meant people from Alem, or included us as well, but Kharil-asuk didn't answer.
[A pause.] Yes - that's it.

familiarconcerning. Her brow wrinkles a little. What if Hermione ends up following a hallucination instead of one of their own back to the citadel? ]Are you still experiencing them? Are you able to identify if it's only a vision?

Were you able to see a lovely young man respond to this announcement to offer to come keep me company and also comment that he would walk at my side rather than lead?
Because I'm fairly sure that he's real.
no subject
[ But what about when he shows up? ]
Perhaps it would be best for you to keep your pendant in open communication, so that someone here sees when he arrives for you. That ought to be enough assurance.
