Conversation with my Reach. 2021/04/01

We found a guard, and after telling him about the bodies, went back to the inn with the sergeant.
 
Nima was there, examining them, when we arrived.
Sala told her about the Magen in the grey cloak, and described what he could do.
 
He told her that we had heard that he was a master of Mercy, but I corrected him, as he would have to be a master of sovereignty to do what he did.
 
We went to speak with the Queen to see what we should do.
 
Sala told her about what we had heard, about the Coalition being at the Citadel.
 
She knew about a man who knew more about the Pael than the sorcerer.
His name was Mathias Darkmantle. Jim apparently knew him.
 
Guards entered to tell us the city was under attack.
 
There was fighting in the halls on the way out.
 
There was a Magen who was being deposited and pulled back by a reach while attacking.
 
Suddenly a group of Magen appeared righ on top of us.
Lucas grabbed one of them, and the queen put two of them to sleep with a glance.
 
Sala killed the other one.
 
The queen commanded the two to stand.
 
After mentally interrogating the magen, they dropped to the ground.
The queen said they were after a member of our group.
 
We thought it was Fynbar, but we don't know where he is.
 
Nima was checking the two magen, and seemed horrified that they were dead.
Apparently the queen thought it was more efficient that capturing them, since they would just be executed later anyway.
 
A guard came and asked the queen to come outside.
 
There are burning bodies in the sky making out the words "Bring him to me"
 
Sala and Lucas were trying to figure out where they are coming from. He was able to predict their next attack. It must have been quite the strain, because Nima had to heal him a bit halfway through.
 
They continued to figure it out, and found three places they could be coming from.
 
One in the wall, one by the docks and another at a manor.
 
I asked the queen to link our minds, so we would know what was going on.
 
Nima and I will go to the wall, Jim and Lucas will go to the docks, and the Queen and Sala will go to the manor.
 
The queen made a mental connection with me and Lucas.
 
Sala and the queen reach the manor, and start looking around.
Sala kicked down the door, and the queen started scanning the house.
There was no one there.
 
At the docks, Lucas and Jim dress in the dead Magen's robes, and enter the building.
The room is filled with Magen, including the Magen in grey.
 
Lucas is actively transmitting everything he sees.
 
They are able to convince them that they are just new recruits that were overlooked.
 
The grey cloaked man mentioned that they would have to start burning the city down, since they were not getting results.
 
He divided the magen into groups and started sending them out using a reach that he had.
 
The reach would have to be very powerful if it could do what he was using it for...
 
We arrived at the wall, and Nima and the guards went into the wall with me.
 
Nima started asking about me and why I joined the group.
 
She was asking about where I had learned the magic I had, since it didn't look like the magic she had learned at flamewrote.
 
I told her briefly about the Library, and she seemed quite interested. Wanted to know if I could get back there.
 
You know, of course, that I can, whenever I want to.
 
She told me about how she studied at Flamewrote and was sold to Oceanguard, much like Fynbar was sold to Jim.
 
She said that she didn't like being prisoner, which I wholeheartedly agreed with her about.
 
I noticed the guards are not following us anymore.
 
She said that the coalition needed to have me so they could learn what I know.
 
I felt her try to get into my head, but the music warned me just in time.
 
She assaulted my mind, and almost had me, but I was able to resist, and got away through an arrow slit outside the city.
 
I alerted Lucas that Nima was the leader of the Coalition.
 
Lucas tried to grab the reach from grey cloak, but failed. Then Jim convinced him that the queen had found Nima, and the guards are coming, he flees, and takes Jim and one other magen with him.
 
Sala arrived at the docks, and killed the magen who were left.
 
Jim appeared in the field with me.
