For anyone who is interested, I'm going to be busy, and likely out of town for the next couple days. SpecInv should still be running at full capacity, any concerns and calls for assistance should be forwarded to Miss Mikata. She'll be able to get a hold of me if it's an emergency.
Shiroko also has my number, should that be a bit too... clinical.
[Private to Adam Van Der Aart/Onee]
I'm gonna be making some house calls, and then I'm ready to go on this trek whenever you are.

[He's standing outside a door on the Island, the Duel Academy's faculty housing. He has a small care package of baked goodies and various board games. He lets out a breath.]
Here goes.
[And he's knocking.]

Re: Event
Haha... no, I'm not. Yuma's a good friend of mine, though.
Corentine, right? Is your mom here?
Re: Event
Mommy! [She's practically bouncing on her heels.] Someone's here to see you!
Re: Event
Onni. What a pleasant surprise.
Re: Event
Wow, Corentine, you're pretty strong...
[He smiles up to Desdemona, a flicker of sadness seeing her confined to the wheelchair. He nods.]
Hey, Desdemona. Been a while. Figured I'd check up on you, drop some stuff off, talk a bit.
[He sets down the care basket near Desdemona, on a table where she can reach it easily if she wants to.]
You're looking a lot better, it seems.
Re: Event
Re: Event
Is there anything I can do for you?
Re: Event
As for...something y ou can do... I need some information. Or a favor. I'm not sure which is more important but... it has to do with what's been going on.
Re: Event
Re: Event
Truth is... I need to know where Isabel went after she split town. I need her help - pretty bad, in fact. And, well, I figured you'd be the best person to ask.
Re: Event
[Desde grimaces.]
That may be...difficult. I know where she is. But...reaching her will not be easy. What do you need her for?
Re: Event
As for why- there was a psychic duelist who was possessed by an artifact, recently. Unfortunately, they don't remember the attack, and by the time we got there, the artifact was shattered and had no trace of energy left on it. We've got no leads on what that could be - other than there's a good chance it might be related to this mess with the resurgence of the Numbers, the Number Hunters, and the Immaterial Demons.
The only way we'd be able to recreate the event is if we had someone who was able to tap into the psychic link shared by the duelist and whatever possessed him at the time.
Re: Event
[Desdemona lets out a sigh and looks aside. She seems to sink in her chair a bit.]
If my powers were working right now...I could use my telepathy. And help you myself.
But...that is not the case.
Re: Event
[He takes a deep breath.]
Besides, I never got to say hi to Isabel last time she came to town. I owe her a punch in the arm for that.
Re: Event
[She sighs.]
Telepathy and emotional connections are very difficult to forge. I don't think I or Juudai would feel comfortable asking any of the members of SAI to undertake something so potentially strenuous.
...Isabel is very different. She's gained a great deal of mental tenacity the last few years. She...may be able to help you. If you can contact her and she's willing to help
[Deep breath. She looks back up at Onni.]
...she's in the forest. The Naturia Forest. She's joined the rank of the forest hunters, those charged with protecting the Naturia Sacred Tree from harm.
Re: Event
The Naturia forest, huh? I guess I should have expected that...
As far as her being willing to help... well, anything's worth trying once. And hey, maybe she'll agree if she realizes she gets to hold it over my head for a while.
Re: Event
...one way would be to use the Earthen Gates network. All of the Hunters are connected by stones made from the scales of the Earthen Keeper. When one hunter is in danger or needs the assistance of another, the stones resonate. And I know those who went to the forest a short while ago came back as hunters.
...the other way would be to use her mark. Even though she's very far gone, the Signers are still connected. If you can get one or more of the other Signers to reach out to her...it could be enough to catch her attention and bring her here.
Re: Event
Alright, I suppose those are good ways to try and reach her. I don't know if she'll come, but... well. That's gonna be as best as I can do, I suspect.
[He sighs.]
Really need to work on trans-dimensional communications... this stuff can get, well. Pretty dicey, when push comes to shove.
Re: Event
The next easiest way would be to go to the Forest yourself, but that'd be...difficult, to say the least.
Re: Event
That's the main thing I needed, but... are you okay, at least? Is there anything I can do for you?
/?
Re: Event
Can I go?
Re: Event
Go where, dear?
Re: Event
He's gonna talk to my uncles and aunts and their Signers, right?! I wanna see them too! And I wanna see Isabel too!
Re: Event
[Desdemona lets out a sigh.] And getting to spend all day with you again was the one silver lining of my current condition... [She ruffles her daughter's hair.]
Re: Event
So, can I go? Please? I'll bring back Isabel and we can play with her too when I get back!
