In a bar, there is a girl.
She looks like she has saved up all of her decadent and slothful impulses for a solid decade and is indulging them all at once. She is sprawled on a couch with a book she's only half-reading, and an ice cream sundae, and smiiiiiiling.

It does. But it does not explain why the Wild Magic is having such communication difficulties.
ertia
Me either but I'm hoping you might know if there are any other weird things about you that the unicorn would have a hard time knowing how to relay.
ertia
Can I get your top three guesses to start? I don't want something weird to screw up the omnipotence project because I didn't ask enough intrusive questions.
Liselen yelps. "What! Didn't they all die thousands of years ago? I definitely remember being told they all died thousands of years ago! And the Wild Magic just says... Tialle... is Tialle's Demon hanging around somewhere with a Dragonbond?!"
Yes, says the hermit dragon. Tialle's Demon is indeed hanging around somewhere with a Dragonbond. If all the other Endarkened were killed, that is good news.

Which Kithabel also repeats verbatim, and then she decides this is silly and just brings everybody into the conversation: I don't feel like being a comm bead anymore.
I think I should meet you in person, says Liselen to the hermit dragon.
Won't that be interesting, says the hermit dragon.
The Wild Magic is being very confusing but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be recommending you to go help someone take over a world if you were evil. That is not at all the sort of thing it would do.
And how would it know how evil I am or am not?
How should I know? I'm just a unicorn. But if anyone was going to be a not-evil Endarkened, Tialle's Demon sounds like the right one.

The Endarkened were the children of He-Who-Is, says the hermit dragon.
Which is sort of like being made of the Dark, says Liselen. I think. They were all really evil and then someone did a miracle and killed them and then there weren't any more. Except for this one somehow. But if he wasn't Dark anymore, I guess the miracle would've left him alone...

Send me to go poke Tialle's Demon and I'll know for sure. Unicorns detect the Dark.
And destroy it, the hermit dragon points out.
Yes, well, if I thought you might actually be Dark I wouldn't be suggesting I go visit you because that sounds terrifying!

Liselen visits.
Liselen reports, I poked Tialle's Demon and he isn't Dark, and he hasn't tried to kill me or anything.

Kithabel retrieves the unicorn. Is 'Dark' definitely the right criterion to think in terms of?
Well, if he'd been Dark that would definitely have been a good reason not to send him to go take over a world... and the Wild Magic did specifically recommend him for the going and taking over a world thing, and I really don't think the Wild Magic would do that if it didn't trust him a whole lot.

Hermit dragon and bondmate thereof, d'you by any chance share Jewel's casual attitude towards being mindread?
