[@Atroposer][@Polaris North]Simon popped the cork on the vile and drank it while absentmindedly flipping to the proper ritual.  In the game, the ritual minigame only took a few seconds.  About halfway through he realized that the guy up ahead was holding a sign with Tes's name on it, but he'd already sacrificed the $20, so he finished it and sat down beside a pillar that supported an overhang.  A few seconds later the spell kicked in and everything took on a bluish, foggy haze as he saw two boys drawing some kind of symbol on firecrackers and throwing them at each other.  A woman's voice started yelling at them, but as she spoke Greek he was only able to catch a name.  He floated away, accelerating towards his body far away while he flew over a forty-something farmer, returning to his body about a second later.

He opened his eyes and stood up, a bit weak from the experience.  Leaving your body tended to have that effect, he'd learned.  He walked over to the boy holding the sign and held out his hand.  "Simon Hutchins" he said, taking the man's hand without asking permission.  "Maybe you've heard of the game I made called "Mage Wars"?  I'm here to research more spells for my game.  Which brings me to an unusual question.  Do you know anyone named Achilles Ambrosia?  He looked to be in his late teens, and I think his family are witches too."

Tes asked about the music and he looked over to a street performer he had somehow missed.  "Yeah." he said.  "I think that might be the girl you're looking for."
