Story
Chapter 7: Embers of Hope
The gang seems to be in an unorganised panic about what to do next. In order to help them all calm down Tavi makes some tea and tells them all a story about her past.
Nyx
Wait, what are you saying?
Luxinia
I don’t think he meant to do that last attack, or at the very least, he didn’t have as much control over it as he thought he would.
Luxinia
I don’t know what, but I think there is more to this story. I don’t think your sibling is as far gone as we thought, Nyx.
Nyx
Then we need to get going!
Juni
Yip yip!
Tavi
Wait, we still don’t know where to go!

*beep beep* *beep beep*
Baelia
Umm, Nyx why is your device beeping?
Fyora Hologram
Hello all!

*All jump from shock*
Nyx
Oh ummm, Queen Fyora, you’re in my Void Dampener?
Fyora Hologram
Dr. Landelbrot set this up in case of emergencies.
Nyx
Does that mean there is an emergency?
Fyora Hologram
Apologies if you are trying to talk back, but this is just a recording. This should be able to reach you no matter where you are, but the length of the recording is limited so I must be quick.
Fyora Hologram
Our informants have spotted the Grey Painter and Vira just south of the Haunted Woods. We suspect they are making their way to Altador. You must intercept them at all costs! Please, be careful.
Tavi
Well, that was convenient timing I suppose.
Luxinia
Yeah, she does that…
Tavi
Alright, Nyx you got your wish. Let’s pack up and head out at once. If they really are that far ahead of us, then we’re gonna have to take a shortcut I’ve heard of…but it won’t be pretty.
