What? The World needs saving AGAIN? IC Thread 4

[Xihirli]

Eris moved away one hand, looked at the outfit, blinked and covered her face again.
"U-uhm. It... Looks nice" she said, taking a deep breath.
"Like... How I thought that up" Eris confessed while her cheeks got impossibly red, devil momentarily falling in the back of her mind.

Lorraine smiled and set a hand on Eris's shoulder. "Leff will be ecstatic," she promised.

[Valmark]

Eris giggled.
"Devil-thing there is irritating, but I can't let that bother me too much" she nodded to herself, putting her hands down and looking at Lorraine.
"Thanks. Besides, it did say something helpful- though I chased it away before it could anything more, unfortunately. Kind of. I'm not overly displeased" she stood up.
"You think I can hide it under the bed? The... The outfit, I mean"

[Xihirli]

Lorraine nodded, stepping back to give Eris access to it. "Wherever you like."

[Valmark]

Eris put the outfit back inside the sack, stuffing it under the bed. The she grabbed the famous pouch.
"There" she stated "Thank you for that. And the support- Good thing I didn't tell you to run away" Eris looked at Lorraine.
"Though, I should get back- Leff might be getting worried. She knows how fast I am"

[Xihirli]

Lorraine giggled. "No, that wasn't on purpose. Alright, yeah. Have a good day!" She opened the door for both of them.

[Valmark]

"You too!" Eris started moving, then went back to pick up the maul and clean it from the coal before putting it back on her back.
"There- see you later!" she sprinted off, assuming Lorraine was going to close the door.

[Xihirli]

Eris met back up with Leff, who was sitting alone with two plates of omelettes - hers mostly finished. She waved. "Something happen?" she asked.

[Valmark]

Eris pointed at her face.
"Devil b**** showed up in reality instead of mind" she said, sitting down next to Leff.
"Blensotin's travel time is five years" and started eating, staring ahead.

[Xihirli]

Leff frowned and caressed Eris's cheek. "It told you that? Why?"

[Valmark]

"I think it wanted to... Help? I don't know, it called you its wife and I saw red" Eris put a hand on Leff's hand "Though I hurt myself as much as I hurt it"

[Xihirli]

Leff squeezed her face and nodded."That's sweet of you."
She looked back at her food. "Five years... that gives us time, I suppose. Though now... I mean, we can't really intercept him, can we? There must be a way..."

[Valmark]

"Can't we hop on another plane? Like, travel somewhere where time works differently and then jump there? Or discover where he'd be in days from now or something like that. Didn't Sirthis say Blensotin would find a spelljammer? What does that mean?" Eris tried pointing out.

[Xihirli]

"I have no way of plane-hopping at all, I think we need to find a fey crossing, like the one we used to get here. And.... I don't know. I don't know where people are during the time whammies between here and home. Maybe nowhere. We know where he'll be in five years, and we know where he was a few weeks ago, but his travel might already be done and he's being... teleported? Further in time?" Leff shook her head. "There's so much weird about this."

[Valmark]

"Maybe asking somebody who can or checking the library about plane traveling?" Eris asked, looking around to check if Gloriana was still there.

[Xihirli]

Gloriana was just finishing up, and was stretching her wings. She said something in sylvan that sounded like Rusay atara vanima baby ed stables."

[Valmark]

Eris cocked her head, standing up to walk to Gloriana.
"You left a baby in the stables? Sorry, my Sylvan's still bad. And- sorry for the intrusion, but can I ask you something about the Feywild's time thing?" she asked in Ignan for Leff to understand.

[Xihirli]

Gloriana smiled and answered in Infernal. "In a sense - my dragon, Nidhiki."
She walked a bit away from the table, motioning for Eris to follow. "Please, accompany me to visit my baby - and ask any questions you like as we go."

[Valmark]

"So- we go with her to visit the dragon, meanwhile I ask. Unless you want to check the library?" Eris told Leff, before following Gloriana.
"Nidhiki's the purple dragon right? Anyway, it's rather simple- me and Leff are hunting somebody, and we know where he might be in five years on Toril- but no idea how to intercept him. I was wondering if you knew how it works to cross planes- where do people end up in those time jumps the Feywild does"

[Xihirli]

Leff nodded. "I'll check out the library, and we can meet there after you talk to her." She gave Eris a kiss, then went off on her own.
Gloriana nodded. "Where are they? Where is a wizard when she casts teleport? Where are we when we aren't on one plane and haven't yet arrived on the other? There is no where. The issue is, you are seeing time distortion as something that happens in space. But there is an easier solution - simply travel in time yourselves."

[Valmark]

Eris frowned.
"Can you... Explain that as if I'm a really dumb rock?" she asked.

[Xihirli]

Gloriana laughed loudly. "Apologies, Missus Lelahinn. What I mean is that the person or persons you are tracking do not currently exist. But if you know when they are going, you could simply go then yourself."

[Valmark]

Eris nodded.
"So... Catch them before they get out of the Feywild? And how does somebody calculate that?"

[Xihirli]

Gloriana frowned. "Before? I'm afraid that will end very poorly. But meeting them in five years might be a possibility."

[Valmark]

"Well, then how do we calculate five years?" Eris asked "Our getting here was pretty random to be honest"

[Xihirli]

"No, you mistake my meaning. Get to Toril first, and then travel in time," Gloriana explained. "Through the help of a sphinx."

[Valmark]

"Uh- Wh- sphinxes make us travel through time? How does THAT work?" Eris looked more confused then ever before.

[Xihirli]

Gloriana laughed again as they approached the Stables, where her purple dragon was waiting.
"Sphinxes' secrets are their own. But I can put you in touch with one if you like."

[Valmark]

"I think that would be extremely useful and nice of you" Eris nodded, looking at the dragon.
"Leff's said purple dragons are basically legends"

[Xihirli]

Gloriana smiled and pet Nidhiki, speaking in Draconic to him.
“Well, I’d be happy to help. I do have one small favor to ask though - when you’re in the future, could one of your group Send to me and ask how my daughter is doing? I’m afraid her future is... uncertain, and I hope to have good news.”

[Valmark]

Eris looked confused.
"You m- oh wait, I understood that later. Yeah, I think we can. This means them, because I can only hammer things. So the sphinx will also take us back to the present? Can strangers pet Nidhiki?"
