∞ 49: After the mission [action]

[chikaidestroyer]

Turn down a few torches. We'll rest here for now.

[Albert's voice echoes as he calls out to the rest of the group to stop. It's been a steady walk away from the warehouse even though they had been told by their Malnosso co-conspirators to leave the tunnels quickly. Extinguishing several torches, as they had been every time they rested, would help keep the amount of smoke down.

He takes out one of the sunstones that Sigmund had brought along, activating it and taking a seat against one wall. He then pulls out a notebook and begins writing, keeping an eye on the others moving around in the semidarkness.

Really, the silence following their success was rather unsettling.]

[making a motion to Albert like she wants to talk]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Albert looks at Sheena. He's not getting up to talk, so she'll have to come on over.]

[corrinesbell]

[it was more like making sure she wouldn't be picked up by anyone's journal]

...What was the point of all of this?

[chikaidestroyer]

You did not hear what our co-conspirator was talking about? This will bring power back to the tunnels. [He averts his attention from Sheena to his notebook and back.]

[corrinesbell]

Yeah, I get that. But what are we gonna do with it?

[chikaidestroyer]

Hopefully inspire others with more knowledge of this electricity to do something. Where magic can't be useful, perhaps technology can be.

[corrinesbell]

[gives him a look, somewhere between understanding and frustration, and then goes off to sit somewhere else]

[chikaidestroyer]

[He looks up as she leaves, raising a brow. Sheena really remains a mystery to him in many ways.]
