She’s a magic spirit, don’t mind her.

@Source

Okay then, let's talk about this mission, and about what your plans are, it seems we pretty much know squat about the thing...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

<Snipped quote by Source>

A lesser magic wisdom spirit thank you, and yes mind me!

@Meta

Phhh... Okay, here you go... *I proceed to place the tesseract on the counter and @Source you can also see it now because i willed it so* If you can interact with my so called artifact, we'll talk some more about magic then! *I grin with false innocence*

Tesseract of Abstract Chaos again

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

You could tell me about your magic instead~
*Winks*

@Meta

Why such fascination for magic, lady? What's so special about it? It is merely a means to an end...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Currency is tricky. Usually favors or really rare relics are your best chance of trading. It sounds like the Tavern uses its own system that you earn from quests.

@Memory

Fair point... I mean it would make sense considering what we've been dealing with in the past...

*Holds up a hand*
It’s on me. A trade for intel.

@Source

Phhh... dude, i heard you squealing for her not to raise your rent... what's that about? But okay... *I put the gold bars back in my pocket* So... intel on some weird ass universe that sounds like a dream of a madman rather than a valid world, and that some of its solar systems have mysteriously collapsed... yeah... i'm about as clueless as a fly right now...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm... good. I just drink here.
*Lifts a hand and snaps twice, before a short girl walks past, glaring at me*
Okay sorry the usual please.
*Mutters*
Don't raise my rent...

@Source

*Chuckles as i pour one shot for me and i take the glass of ale you offered and first i drink the hemp whisky shot and then i gulp a mouthful of ale* Aaaaah! Nothin' like mixing beverages brother! *I look at you and at the annoyed girl* It's fine, i'll pay for myself and for this dude... do you accept gold or precious stones? I'm sorry i heard of your tavern coin, i have none of that... but i have valuables i can trade! *I seemingly grab out of nowhere two small rectangle bars of gold that resembles the Spartan bars of ancient Greece or any Romanic or Grecian like civilization*

100 grams mythic fine karat gold bars

You know, I'll trade you a drink for that. Let's grab one before we launch. You like mead?

@Source

Pal! You're my type, I'll drink any alcohol, in fact i'll drink both in fact. *I proceed to remove the cap of my whisky* Any glasses? Warning, my brand of whisky is particularly strong, as it has both effects of alcohol AND hemp high... you think you can handle it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

What's your favorite spell? How big a fan are you of incantations? What's your longest of all time?

@Meta

*Reels back in surprised shock at the magic geek reaction that was totally unexpected* Uuuh... whoa whoa whoa *I grin and with a glint in my eyes i manifest my staple hemp whisky and pull it up almost like a rabbit out of the non-existent hat type theatrics* Care for a drink and tell me if you can hold it in? *I grin and sideye you Prism remembering your aversion with amusement*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Didn't have to be that far, but that works I guess.

@Memory

Hey man... give me a break, they kept poking the bear with demands for honesty and trying to swidle us, you said trust, i trusted...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*Claps*
Ooh, artifact magic!
*Inspects it up close, allured by new magical knowledge*

@Meta

Yeah... Prism acted in more composed way but similarly when he first saw it... so what? You asked to see me and him prematurely, you kept poking, i said to hell with it. What is happening from here on then?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm not sensing hostility. Better communication solves most problems, so let's just try to talk it out first.

@Memory

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm going to be blunter than Lily. You have three options here. Either relax a little and build some trust in your potential party, join the party anyway with suspicions high on both sides until Lily eventually breaks through whatever you're hiding, or lose your cool and do the quest on your own.

@Source

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Uh huh.

@Source

Ugh... fiiine... but if this kills us here you know you're the one who is risking more than me here Prism! *I release my energy mask and a near solar explosion of power floods all your senses @Meta almost making you vomit especially when focusing on my tesseract which you can see*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*The magic circles never leave my pupils*
Hey, you said you're new to this, right? If you take stuff so seriously all the time, people not as nice as us are gonna end up taking advantage of you. Consider this some friendly advice!

@Meta

*I just look at you Prism @Memory with a questioning eye as to ask for your input in this and whisper* Hey i know you don't remember the specifics, but you still have some instincts there... do we trust these two with their demands? or we skedaddle?
