Draiss' retort seems to have sapped most of the fury from Ulden, and their discussion continues on a slightly less antagonistic note, though it's, obviously, never going to be as friendly as it once was.<br/><br/>When Draiss arrives in his inn room, he finds a most curious thing, sitting, patiently, on his bed; a male gnome, even though all of his senses tell him there's less than nothing there. "So many prophecies, so little time. Are you seeking them, or merely ignorant?" the gnome asks. It takes a few seconds for Draiss to recognize him, if only because the memory seems to have... blurred itself, somehow; this is the same gnome he met, during the party of the gods, the gnome who claimed to be an avatar of a being who, at that time, was far more powerful than he was. Even now, with V'elen's power, the gnome's ability to mask himself confounds Draiss, even at this close range.
