Dry air, cooling with the evening, and a familiar bedchamber... yep, Kass had teleported to the right spot.  But Rana wasn't there... how disappointing.  Wandering about, but not too far, she came across the familiar older man, whom she greeted with a pleasant kiss upon his bearded lips.  Rana was in town on a house call (what sort of 'house call' she was curious about...), but more problematic was the fake Rana's disappearance... that trick of hers to teleport without speaking the words... Kass sighed, and turned to Aria with a wry grin.<br/><br/>"Well... she<em>did</em>help us out... and the rest of the group is eliminated so she won't be getting her money anyway.  Plus, she hasn't hurt anyone, so I don't see the harm in letting her go, do you, Aria?" Kass stated, pulling her scrying shard out of her pack "Anyway, I think we need to let Rana know we've succeeded our mission immediately, so I'm going to scry and message her. then... well, then we can figure out what we'll do until we wait.  Sound good?"<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Ah, I'll fix the cost and spell slots.<br/><br/>Regarding Rana, Kass is using Greater Scrying and Message to communicate with her, regardless of where she is, and I'm pretty sure that Rana can recognize who is scrying her.  She'll inform her of the situation, and ask what she wants them to do with the statue; wait for her to get back, go ahead and replace it where it was, put it in a new spot (likely in the middle of the temple, which I think is an excellent place and can be better defended that way)... whatever.<br/><br/>As for the impostor... well, I hope this doesn't come back to bite the two of them, but you don't seem the type to hold such small kindnesses against me, which is good because I like believing that the in-game worlds are a bit more positive and good than ours ^_^<br/><br/>Oh... and with how long Kass was waiting, would that qualify as a rest period for he spells to come back?  Just curious, even though I don't expect a massive fight breaking out right now or anything.</div></div>
