Draiss stood up as dawn arrived, and spent a moment receiving reports from his mapping crews, none having found any overt Beyonder activity, though one had encountered a M-energy pool, the name he had given to the pools of physical magic energy. They had collected several samples, as well as carefully tested several small pieces of Mythantine, before taking several readings of the ambient magic flows. All samples and recordings had been sent back to his lab, before they had detonated a mini-anti-magic bomb in the chamber, wiping out the pool, and smoothing out the nearby flows of leylines and magic pools, removing the currents that had caused the pool, and had noticed something interesting with this case, the flows had almost formed a 'whirlpool' that had formed into the M-energy pool. He hummed to himself, before stretching, popping his back, and missing his winter home. He waved to the others as they got up, but waited for them to get done before speaking. "Found a possible ally, the one I went off to meet last night. She is here for the same reason we are, but is a follower of the Dragon Goddess Tiamat. She had some interesting tidbits, but I want to confirm them before I say more on it."
