Interaction with [@Typical] [@HokumPocus]

[hr]
Chres tilted his head slightly back, rubbing his chin in thought.

[color=00aeef]“I’m not sure.”[/color] He said at length. Addressing Ferris’ concern for Sil.

[color=00aeef]“She wasn’t there for most of the time they chased us yesterday. So, probably not? The Sightless, however…. Hmmm…“[/color]

Chres furrowed his brow as another thought occurred to him. [color=00aeef]“Come to think of it, I wonder if Sightless are even able to ‘see’ Familiars… or any entity under a construct of light.”[/color]

Turning his gaze to Lynx and Octavio, Chres idly wondered how they could safely put this theory to the test.

Rain slowly began to trickle down from the sky, causing Chres to blink as a stray drop hit the back of his neck.

[color=00aeef][i]Rain...[/i][/color] He thought, his mind going to Sil. Quickly he sent a few mental messages her way, urging her to focus.

Chres turned his attention back to Ferris. Motioning, with his head, for the man to follow. Chres approached a nearby alleyway, positioned away from the crowd.

[color=00aeef]“When I make stairs for myself, I know exactly where I’ll want to step.”[/color] Chres said.  [color=00aeef]“I can make each step individually and as small as I need it to be. Things are different when making stairs for others.”[/color]

Chres placed his right foot firmly at the entrance of the alley. Unconsciously, he summoned the heat stored in his clothes. He felt its warmth as he channeled it down his leg. [color=00aeef]“I can’t predict how another person will move. So I have to make constructs for others larger. I'll save more energy by not joining you. But that means I have to make everything as a whole.”[/color]

Tendrils of energy emerged from Chres’s foot, giving off a dull red glow. The tendrils quickly began weaving together, forming the shape of something larger. They towered up past the nearby buildings and into a spiral ending high above the roof tops.

[color=00aeef]“You’ll have to be quick. It will take more than half of my stored heat to make this behemoth last longer than a minute. Best to move faster than that.”[/color]

More and more tendrils weaved into the construct. Steps began to take shape. There were no safety rails on the sides or supports to hold the construct up. Just a winding path of stairs. The lack of detail was necessary. Less details required less energy, and the static nature of woven constructs made supports unnecessary.

[color=00aeef]“I’ll get you as close as I dare to the tower. Once at the top, jump. I will dissipate the construct soon after. Tell Sil when you are ready to retreat. I’ll prepare a set of pole shaped constructs for you to slide down. Poles require far less energy to weave than stairs.”[/color]

Tendrils stopped to emerging from Chres’ foot. He quickly moved his foot away from the woven construct.

Looking Ferris in the eye, he spoke a single word. [color=00aeef]“Go.”[/color]
