@Gordian Nought@Hekazu So is Gavin outside or in waiting room with what? I am trying to get my head around your posts. If you can help, that would be great.
A three legged robotic diplomat/official just reviewed our "papers" and provided us with an approved "DC" so I believe we were still inside the waiting room, but we can actually leave, if you desire, since the travel ban has been lifted and we are not required to attend to the administrative duties of the Council.
Not sure where I was going here or how long I'll keep her around, but new scene is around or near a big ol' huge alchemical factory that I didn't remember to describe at all. Anything around it can be made up.
Anyone who feels like joining in, just post whatever and I'll send Taidana your way, probably.
