Accepting Mindy's proffered hand as the elf begins her manifestation of power. A moment later the walls and ceiling of the suite vanish, replaced by a starry sky and stacks of cut timber waiting to be processed. As her companions' voices fade into the night air, she mulls over their plans so far, particularly Rihyan's comments on Puime.<br/><br/>Though she's never met her in person, Alyssa is familiar with Puime: the gold dragoness's name is a respected one among the members of her order. Even the normally gruff Brother Vignar spoke glowingly of her deeds. (In fact, he seemed more in awe of her than anyone.) While the thought of the great paladin bent to the Soglyem's will is deplorable, the notion of such a warrior meeting her end in someone's belly is just as upsetting...<br/><br/>"We will rescue Lady Puime from the Sogluyem," she says, as much for Rihyan's benefit as for her own. "We must."<br/><br/>Coming out of her reflection, Alyssa turns her attention back to Mindy. "This is the location of your shelters?" she asks, scanning the lumberyard for signs of life. She finds no indication of the shelters, though whether it means they remain hidden or are compromised she couldn't say.
