Quite alright, nothing you could have done. Poor timing on my part, really. If I'd been alive I could have helped people. I do appreciate the thought, regardless.
You're not wrong. Not that our previous Admiral was my favourite, nor his vessel my ideal location, but this one strikes me as a bubbling pot just waiting to boil over. Whatever restraints they put on my magic have been removed. That means they may have been for other people, as well. People who might be less conservative than I am when it comes to throwing fireballs.

You never answered my question. Are you alright? Were you hurt?

[ ... You know. Trapped. ]

I asked him to look for you, but by then you were already...well.

Grab the nearest warden if you need anything. I'm sure they're all besides themselves trying to be useful.

Have you noticed anything... different, on this vessel?
no subject
Date: 2024-10-06 04:40 pm (UTC)Many things. The 'Captain' is all but absent and the ship has no purpose. I thought the Barge could be aimless and chaotic, but this is...absurd.
