At dawn, he will have exactly two channels, and that will be true whether he used one or both or neither of his channels before that time. He usually wakes up at the moment of dawn, when he can sense that it's time to start praying for spells, and would usually not try to time things closely enough to channel at himself the moment before (he usually only barely has time to pee first); it's fine to go to sleep with a channel free as an emergency backup measure, it's fine to use the last one on himself and Savil before he goes to sleep, he'll abide by their recommendation here especially if they don't have a lot of injured in their infirmary.

They can just have someone wake him ten minutes before local dawn - assuming it's local dawn that counts, if it's dawn back on his planet they have no idea and can't do that - if the problem is that he's worried about missing it? Savil will be fine for the night and at this point seems likely to recover on her own eventually with or without Blai's magic, though "eventually" could be a long time at her age. 

If Blai can wait, Shavri - doesn't think it would be a bad idea to have that emergency backup measure, in case all of this was setup for Leareth to attack Haven in force in the middle of the night or something. 

He should adjust to local dawn, yes. If you change time zones across dawn a lot then you can miss a day but just once shouldn't be a problem. If they'd like him to wait for a wakeup call at ten minutes before dawn that's fine by him.

Shavri hesitates briefly, and - decides not to ask him to prepare a third Lesser Restoration. She doesn't think he would say no, but it might come at the cost of a spell he could end up needing to defend himself – they're asking so much of him already, she doesn't want to put more pressure on him – and she doesn't even know if it will help. On priors it won't help or at least won't help enough, even if it does fix the poisoning he and Savil suffered; Velgarth Healing could fix that too, eventually with time and effort, and they've already thrown as much time and effort and Healing-meld energy at Randi as they possibly could. 

And Randi isn't imminently dying. She can come watch when he casts it on Savil tomorrow, and make a better guess about whether it's worth getting her hopes up. 

She bids Blai goodnight. 

Haven is not attacked in force overnight. 

And Savil - feeling worse than yesterday but not like she's dying  - will drag herself back to her own suite, which shouldn't be suspicious to anyone since she lives there, and knock on the guest-room door to wake Blai about ten minutes before sunrise. 

He sits up - he's got his holy symbol on him in his sleep, and it would be sort of blasphemous to blunt it, but he's got the tip of the blade wrapped in the wire used to make the rays of the sun so it doesn't impale him at night - and channels.

....Well that did exactly nothing. Maybe because the Healing he already used yesterday is redundant with whatever this would help for? She hopes it's doing more for him. 

Whatever, she's still not dying and is capable of staying on her feet even if she's not enjoying it at all. Blai has to do...something?...to prepare spells, and Savil wouldn't want to be bothered any more than necessary first thing in the morning anyway. She'll totter over to light a fire and make chava the slow way rather than using magic. 

Blai rubs his eyes and stretches and hits the privy and prays.

Comprehend Languages in case he wants to read anything today. Also he might be kidnapped or attacked by an evil archmage. Entropic Shield, Liberating Command, Summon Monster I. Divine Favor.

Two Lesser Restorations. A Minor Prophecy. That's it for second circles he gets to pick even though he'd rather like to squeeze in a Resist Energy and an Owl's... alas. Qualm, as usual.

He'll take a Protection from Energy. And Prayer.

Please help him find a way for things to be better here because he arrived, Iomedae. Or don't because you're very busy and this might all be objectively unimportant in the grand scheme of things but, like, it does sound kind of important, with the evil archmage and whatnot.

Savil considers going to take a bath, but she doesn't know how long Blai will be and also going down the hall sounds like way too much work. Whenever Blai is finished, she'll be ensconced in the cozy armchair in her tiny sitting-room, drinking chava. There's a pot of it keeping warm on top of her stove. It doesn't come out as well as when she heats the water with magic, but at least it still wakes her up. 

Out he comes after an hour (prayer) and six seconds (Lesser Restorationing himself). :Is this a good moment for your Lesser Restoration? It worked well on me, so it should for you also.:

:Now is an excellent time. Want some chava?: Gesture at the pot and the spare cups on the sideboard. 

:I'm not familiar with it, but it does smell lovely.: Lesser Restoration.

Ohhhhhhhhh that's better, it even seems to have fixed the remaining backlash.

...They should consider whether this would help Randi, actually. Maybe Shavri already considered that. 

:A lot of people don't find it tastes as good as it smells, but you can put sugar in it. It wakes you up, is the important part. Dara found it on a trip down south and brought some of the plants back: 

She'll let Blai have his first chava experience uninterrupted before she asks him if he found any Foresight-related spells in his reading yesterday. 

He's not a huge chava fan, but he will sip his way through a small cup slowly. :Yes, I've prepared a Minor Prophecy. I think I have to cast it about a particular subject, one that's not too far away - so, not Leareth, but I could try Vanyel or something.:

Nod. :That might be worth trying, though we should consider if Vanyel or someone else makes the most sense to cast it on.: 

She makes a face. :Nothing happened last night, that we can tell. Van is checking the northern border via the Web. ...He didn't have the Foresight dream, either, and he was expecting to, he usually does after - something new happens. We think maybe Leareth is blocking it.: 

:...well, that bodes poorly for his willingness to negotiate.:

:Everything that's happened in the last day bodes poorly for that.: Savil sounds very tired. :We traced the monster that attacked Arven back to the Pelagirs, the same general are as k'Treva. Which is baffling, but it probably means Leareth was lying that he couldn't operate in the Star-Eyed's territory. I still don't see how he could have taken out k'Treva, but - clearly there's a lot we're missing.: 

:- wait, does it mean that? It means that something that operated there may have done two things, but he could have made an ally there, or summoned something that could operate there, or it could be someone else who's hoping to set you at his throat.:

Savil has already had that conversation in dozens of iterations over candlemarks with Vanyel and does not really feel like having it again. 

:Sure, there are a lot of details we don't know about exactly how it happened, maybe he can operate there indirectly through allies or - something weird we're not going to think of - and omitted that part with Vanyel. And we did discuss whether any third parties might want us to go to war, but - however hard it is to believe Leareth has the capabilities to pull this off, it's a lot harder to believe of anyone else.: 

Except the gods. Jisa of all people was the one who brought up that they know of one party who can do whatever they want in the territory of the Star-Eyed – the Star-Eyed herself. But even Vanyel didn't buy it, however determined he was to be sympathetic to Leareth as possible, and - Savil isn't sure she wants to have that conversation with Blai at all. 

:It does seem suspicious especially in combination with blocking the dream, but even if he's the only archmage around I'd expect there to be the occasional equivalent of an eighth circle. Is there less of a power law here?:

:...I didn't follow half of that. My guess is that it works differently here, because Gift-potential doesn't get stronger with practice? You get outliers like Vanyel, but - that's not even what makes Leareth dangerous, Vanyel is probably stronger than him on raw power, he's just the only one who's had two thousand years to figure out how to do impossible things with magic.: 

:Understood.:

Sigh. :I should go check in with Dara, catch up on all the meetings I missed when I was supposed to be resting. Thank you for the Healing. I think Van or I should be able to come by in a few candlemarks and discuss your Foresight spell. Anything else you need before then - oh, we should get you some breakfast, maybe I'll call for something for myself so it's not obvious you're here.: 

:Breakfast would be lovely, thank you.:
