<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I possess this key, his blood, and another of the keys, which is his voice. The other two keys need to be acquired, being a sample of his own magic, and a sample of his own power, both of which exist here and just need to be... Cultivated, for lack of a better term.


Can we use the system itself to extract his magic?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

To protect it, obviously. But the elaborate and specific means to access it was designed to make it impossible for nearly anyone while allowing him access in the event of an emergency. Say, dimensional collapse.


And what must we do to intrude?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

It's by his own design. He's set all this up with all manner of sorcery.


With what intention?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Graveny's original body is locked away in a much more archaic manner. Archaic, yet robust, and dangerous. There are four keys magically tied to the device which contains it, and all four must be used to open the device.
*Pulls out a vial of what appears to be blood from my pocket*
For example, his own blood, which I've held on to and preserved for eons, just in case.


Why is it capable of opening at all?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

You're familiar with security systems that require simultaneous activation of a certain device from different locations, I'm sure? Often with, say, keys of a sort, or access codes.


All of the above.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The issue is just that I've never actually done it myself.


Then what is required of us?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

It was taken advantage of precisely once before, a long time ago. I’m confident enough to call it fact.


Very well. Do continue.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

No, that’d be even more difficult. This ancient structure is closely tied to his power. It contains the means for us to lock him into his current vessel.


That would be a significant inconvenience. How confident are you in the accuracy of that information?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

It is. But part of his own strength grants us the tools we need to do just that.


That being? Wipe out the army?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

She’s trained, don’t worry. The current task isn’t even combat-oriented. We need to lock Graveny down so killing him in one body means the job is finished.


That sounds easier said than done.
