Týfurkh looked down at what Millie was presenting in her hands. A stone ? He didn't want to ask it openly, but his facial expression slipped enough to tell it anyway: [i]Seriously ?[/i]. How in any god's name would a [i]stone[/i] do good at this point ? He reached for it and pulled it out of her grasp. [color=ff9900]"Beautiful piece of aggregated minerals, but I don't think that anyone will respond in an exactly benevolent manner if its trajectory even just allows for the suspicion of it having been thrown close to one's head intentionally."[/color]

Týfurkh dropped the item, obviously thinking about alternatives. [color=ff9900]"I have already tried some of my magic, but with them out of direct sight by now it won't trigger the desired reaction."[/color] He started scratching along his almost unbearded chin. It was a usual bit of body language whenever he was busy thinking about a complicated problem. [color=ff9900]"However... we could deliver something else up there. Something much more intelligent, agile and capable of autonomous behavior!"[/color]

Having said this, Týfurkh barely left Millie an opportunity to evade his subsequent move. His hands were beyond huge. His fingers were so long and his palms so wide that he found it extremely easy to get a firm grasp about the woman's hips. [color=ff9900]"Unfortunately not exactly lighter. You really could lose a few!"[/color] Týfurkh added, grunting a little as he lifted Millie off the ground and as far into the air as his long arms could. [color=ff9900]"Can you reach the roof ? Get up there and run after them! I'll try to follow you down here as much as I can!"[/color]

He tried to relocate one hand first, then the other one further down towards her legs in order to boost her further up. Hopefully Millie had some muscle in her arms and would make it! [color=ff9900]"Also I'd appreciate it if you'd tell them about that as well. I would really like to get up there in one piece and not reach the sky as a wisp of smoke, so even a hint to the next ladder would be a real deal of help!"[/color] Aside from this a gut feeling told him that there could very well be individuals on the move in this city who were on the responsible side of things and not victims.
