Ouch. I am lucky to live in a place, where power and internet are extremely stable(only 5 minutes of power outage per year on average, and most of that comes from when rare severe natural events cut off entire regions).
Iṃgor asked his familiar, an oversized mole, to follow Sapphire underground. The familiar's senses won't allow accurate tracking, but it should still be good enough to get back into the tracking spell's range. However, before he followed, he had to bring back the ingredients he purchased, otherwise they would slow him down. He sped up, but didn't start running, as he didn't want to attract too much attention, especially from the guards. He didn't want to be slowed down unneccessarily. Back in the hideout he just quickly deposited the items so no vermin or rodent could quickly get to them, and sprinted eastwards once he was done. He chose the path through the back alleys and 'hidden' roads. He definetly didn't want to be stopped for anything now.
Iṃgor kept an 'eye' on both Sapphire and Nickolaus using his tracking spell. As the latter of the two left the town he also left the spell's range. "Looks like Schulze is gone forever, he left town. Sapphire seems to have come to a stop on a building." The questioning look on his face while reporting was supposed to indicate a question on whether Alex worried about her a littlebit. At least to see if he would agree to approach her and inform her on Nickolaus. "I'll try to get some food at the evening market, I want to check how well one can cook in this hideout's kitchen. Meet me there if you have come to a decision or have something urgent to tell me." With that, Iṃgor left the hideout and headed for the marketplace. He wanted to make at least 1 small meal for 3, which would also turn out as a nice large meal for 3 if Sapphire wouldn't return by dinnertime.
Iṃgor Ẹrësîng, the son of his father Ūilrïăm Ẹrësîng, is only half an elf; his mother Ingrid Dahere is a human. The Ẹrësîng family was a traditional elven merchant family in the port-town of Łėtŧætụŋe, where Ūilrïăm also first met Ingrid. Their so called 'impure' relationship was shunned, although Ẹrësîng never was a noble family. Iṃgor was born into these circumstances. He already was targeted at a young age, but his parents wouldn't allow that to happen on their watch. His mother, Ingrid, gave him a necklace she acquired on one of her journeys to distant trade centers. It was a rune to shield oneself from spells and the lasting effects some of them had. His father thought more tactically, if Iṃgor never runs into an attacker, he will never be attacked. As such, he tought him a spell, with which he can track any attackers, and other things if required. Time passed, while Iṃgor grew up, so did some purist movement gain strength, little by little. Eventually, it was clear, that he had to leave the town, which's trade was now slowly dying. His mother taught him how to cook and which common plants and fungi are edible, so he would not starve in the wilderness, if he'd not find a new home quickly enough. This included a spell to ignite small fires. His father taught him how to use a bow, how to make the correct baits for which animals, and how to hunt and defend himself against animals.

The medical examination turned up nothing out of the ordinary, but since he was exposed to twice as much radiation as the average human is exposed to in his entire life, he was advised to avoid any further exposure, unless that was impossible. Joe just went to his room in the barracks afterwards, if he was needed by his family, they would show up, at least he thought so. Upon entering the room he was a littlebit surprised to find an inter-corporate-network-access-console there, as they were pretty rare in Smith's Rest these days. He promptly switched it on to see what was on the net. Most of the news available to the public were either propagandistic or completely uninteresting, and nothing caught his interest; As he looked at the shop, he noticed that he had a balance of 15K ICC, which were problably his share of the mission-reward. Joe attempted to scroll through the item list to see what was available, but apart from the list of available NC-frames, the server returned errors whenever he attempted to view them. He had to postpone the survey of the shop to a later time. Before Joe planned to shut down the console, he decided to look through the settings, he noticed a section for stored account-credentials. It contained the account for the online-shop and an email account. As both were set to 'automatic login', Joe logged into both, and changed the passwords, while also memorizing the usernames of his 2 accounts. Once he was sure to remember them, he erased both accounts from the settings of the console completely, because Joe didn't want anyone to have easy access to them. He proceeded by looking through the email-account's inbox, finding only the notice of the recieval of the 15K ICC. He looked through the metadata of the reciept and found that there were multiple recipients. Namely the other NC-pilots from the last mission. He decided to ask thr first other recipient on the list about the debriefing, since Joe hadn't been there. The recipient was Madison, as her account had been created first for some reason.
