Travis carefully listened to Nemo's briefing and dissected every detail he provided. He admitted to have heard the story of Samwell but the details regarding a Paragon were sparse and different interpretations had risen because of it. Nonetheless, it was entertaining to him to have a small historical lesson, presenting the background of the site of their next mission.

But as Nemo continued on, Travis couldn't help but feel somewhat squeamish about what they were getting into. Hunting for the Paragon Espial was similarly like one of his ruin expeditions. There were expected dangers sure but there was very little external interference up until the last leg where Thadeus and his crew came into the scene uninvited. But now, they were definitely up against a competing organization; one that very likely held experienced mages in their ranks. Even more so, the plan was to stow away on the Church's transport and remain undetected. This sounded like a very bad idea.

Zoey gave her honest concerns and constructed a plausible and alternative plan to Nemo's suggested course of action. However had quickly identified the holes in Zoey's clever scheme and confidently reconfirmed that it was best to hitch a ride with the unaware Church officials and a ship filled with plenty of not-so-nice individuals. Travis was not so eager into getting into a unavoidable brawl, especially against another human being despite Nemo openly voiced his hopes for a direct engagement. He sighed quietly, softly venting his displeasure in this fair but retained his cool as much as possible. It was his choice that he is here after all; there was no way he had any right to complain other than to do his job.

As it was decided by Felix about their plan-of-attack, Travis decided to give his own concerns.

"Before we leave..." Travis began, "I think it would be best to prepare the Paragon-blinding spell first, especially if we are successful in securing [i]Fantasia[/i] as there is certainly no telling how far reaching a Paragon's influence has over another. I have ran the majority of the necessary tests that could be done. The rune should be as ready as it can be."
