BlackBerry gnawed on the thought that the Prince was a liar. It was an interesting thought to consider.

[color=00aeef] "Ah a very reassuring thought."[/color] He responded dryly. [color=00aeef]"Lich or no, the Prince has a way with the more profai- the more unique magics. To add to this we have no idea where he may be or how to get there. And even if we did it would almost certainly not be in time."[/color]

BlackBerry took a gentle sip from his tea and used the moment to arrange his next words into something they could all actually act on; as it was they were simply talking in circles. It was Lizbeths own admission to a sense of urgency that knock a latent thought rolling, and again his thoughts turned to the timing of everything.

BlackBerry grimaced slightly at Kosaras suggestion but, like a lot of Kosaras suggestions, it did make some sense.

[color=00aeef]"This is clearly not a case of a simple...I do apologise for this Lizbeth, a simple sacrafice. But let us put aside that idea, Kosara, of a would be bride and not get ahead of ourselves with 'what if' when we are still struggling with 'what is'. Victoria, if you are certain yourself and Lady Kathryn can gleem anything of note from the dreams, it may be useful to collaborate such with yourself Master Mosswater."[/color] He turned to the mosswaters and said, [color=00aeef]"I do hope this shall not become too much more exciting than the theatre good Sirs, but perhaps your own knowledge of the land and history can give us the insight we are struggling with at this time."[/color]

BlackBerry put down the cup and leaned forward again in his seat with only a small pause to blow his nose, again.

[color=00aeef]"You are right however, Kosara, to bring up the wording of the original agreement. We are still woefully unaware of whatever the full agreement Monsieur L'Rose had made. We have clues and ideas of course but nothing concrete with the full agreed terms. If, well, I say 'if', as if we are not already in agreement that what ever it is that Farid has planned cannot come to pass?"[/color]

He paused to let anyone argue if they wanted, and if they did they would have recieved a very angry scowl, but after the moment passed he then continued,

[color=00aeef]"If we are to truly find a way to resolve this I doubt we can do so in as simple way as a fair fight. No I dare say this will be more a battle of wits or otherwise finding something else to offer."[/color]

He sighed then with an annoyed and tired air, and a look upwards to the ceiling hoping maybe the answer might loe there in the beams and occasional cobweb. His fingers frantically tap, tap, tapped along the table also trying to find an answer.

[color=00aeef]"Master Urmdurus, if you would be able to show us anywhere else Monsieur L'Rose asked you to build anything that would be much appreciated and even gathering anything he requested for would be useful to have in hand. I daresay in this case we cannot leave even a single stone unturned. To that end, I can go collect the other books from below. I shall not pretend to know all or any notes on magic there may be but I am an astute reader."[/color] The latent thought that had been rolling finally hit home. BlackBerrys grew wide at the idea, a sudden stroke of inspiration. [color=00aeef]"The Frostival. It may be then all this comes to a head."[/color]
