Once Billy had finished listing off the needed ingredients for the spell, Alyssa simply looked at him, puzzled, and, through her eyes, one could almost see the gears in her head spinning and grinding, working to pump out whatever idea was being manufactured in her brain. After a few moments, she only shook her head, a small frown present on her lips. [color=662d91][b]"That's not right...I've worked with some spells like this in the past, and there's something missing from this recipe. They must've withheld it, as a sort of a test. But I can't seem to put my finger on what it might be..."[/b][/color] She said, not exactly speaking to Billy, but rather thinking aloud. She hopped off of the table, tossing the mostly eaten donut back into the box as she began to pace back and forth across the floor of the room. [color=662d91][b]"A lot of spells tend to have a theme, so maybe this one does too. Perhaps the theme of this spell is imprisonment. Chains representing binding, scales representing impenetrability, blood and tears representing the pain of isolation. So now, perhaps we need something to represent the undead we're trying to capture...or I could be completely wrong on this..."[/b][/color] Suddenly, Alyssa snapped out of her own mind looking up at the rest of the room, seemingly scanning it. [color=662d91][b]"Where are Leoz and the Lich?"[/b][/color] Her eyes then landed on her younger-looking partner. [color=662d91][b]"Bill, don't tell me that you sent two of our only agents with excessive knowledge in the arcane arts on the field, away from the planning area..."[/b][/color] Alyssa barely gave the other agent time enough to respond, before shoving her head into her hand, rubbing her temples in frustration. [color=662d91][b]"Shit..."[/b][/color] she said. But before she could start thinking of a new solution, the soft sound of a clearing throat echoed through the room. Hobbs lifted her head out of her hands, glancing at the new person in the room. Her eyebrow lifted up at who she found: Agent Talia LeCroix. [color=662d91][b]"LeCroix, good timing. We need to borrow your brain for a moment."[/b][/color] Alyssa said, gesturing her over. [color=662d91][b]"Our two main scholars of the supernatural are currently somewhere in the building. We need you to use your abilities to find them and communicate with them. Ask them what a Binding Undead spell might need, other than what was on the list. Once you do that, tell us what they say, and then start searching the area for emotions of sadness. Not natural sadness, but some sort of perminent, magical sadness that might be bound to a magical artifact, such as a crystal tear. Got it?"[/b][/color] [@Wayward][@Silverstein][@Flightless_Soul][@Dealdric][@KatherinWinter]
