Bremorel bristled at Kayerie's suggestion that it might be her own faculties that were impaired... but fortunately or otherwise, Hunter's precipitous move prevented her from pursuing that.<br/><br/>In the main chamber, staying some distance from the devil... "Rafael"... Bree cocked her head to one side and scrutinized the crystal sphere again, putting two and two together.   Fingering Yustissa's Symbol, the sorceress walked over to the sphere, and pressed her other palm to its surface.  There was power in it, that was for sure... but while she didn't understand most of it, one thing she could do was open the Path down again.  This she did, sensing the portals opening for their descent.<br/><br/>She didn't at all like the way Rafael was moving toward Aleria ... but Kayerie was probably right, they should probably stick together - excepting Samedi, who hopefully was hanging back, and avoiding the devil's infernal influence.  Bree didn't look back to check, announcing loudly - for Samedi and Aleria/crow's benefit while the bird was in the room: "The Path portals are now open, we can descend to the pool where... you came to Aleria, Rafael."<br/><br/>She couldn't, however, see a way to justify stopping Rafael from carrying Aleria's body back down.  She just hoped the crow would go first, as Aleria appeared to have some sort of plan.  Perhaps the devil assumed it was Bree's own familiar, if he recognized her as a sorceress at all.  But she took a stab at, at least, keeping Aleria's body under someone else's control.  "Kayerie, would you mind carrying Aleria?  I could take her legs, if you like.  I just think.. no offence, Rafael, but in her state, I think she might prefer to be carried by women.  She's apparently... had some bad experiences lately."<br/><br/>Pretty feeble, admittedly, but she didn't have the intelligence of a wizard, or the cunning of a rogue.  Or of a devil.<br/>
