"Thanks. - can you check my email from here, or just my mail label directly?"

"Uh, if you have a device that would have your email written to it that you can get into, I could get that but it'd be a hacking project to get it off the servers."

"I have my phone here, I don't know if that helps. I can ask them to mail you directly if they decide not to summon you, if you'd rather."

"Your phone, being here, won't have your email written to it, because it's not getting service in Limbo. They can mail me."

"All right." He sends them that, too, and reads.

Eventually Cam says, "I feel their circle, gonna skim the binding real fast and go."

"All right. Kat might come by, I think she'll want to meet you. And I'll see you in a few days, probably."

"Sure." Skim skim. And vanish.

Raafi sits for a bit and then goes down to ask around about someone to advise Leonor on Limbo.

And an hour or so later Kat comes looking for Cam and Tomás.

"Hello! I'm Cam," says Cam, looking up from the display his computer is projecting across the table for himself and Tomás to look at.

"Katrianne, you can call me Kat. Cleric of Lastai. How's the binding going?"

"Tomás has a really nifty bit of crossreferencing software! When I was alive I had to do everything by hand. I think I'm keeping up all right."

"Time estimate hasn't changed," says Tomás.

"All right. Mind if I sit in? I won't bother you, I'm just curious."

"Doesn't bother me," says Cam.

"As long as you're quiet," says Tomás.

They get back to working on it. "Okay, does this exertion of force let them chew?" Cam asks. He looks it up. "Looks like raw carrots sometimes wants twice that."

"Guess they might take a while on carrots."

"What's that buying us, they can already drop a rock on your foot, break a toe, if someone's standing right there holding still. I think with the speed limit we can afford to let it be a slightly larger rock and if anybody loses a toe over it I'm happy to replace the toe."

Cam is very good! This isn't really surprising, given givens. She watches quietly.

"I don't actually want anyone to pick this," says Tomás. "I want them to go back on Ganymede."

"They're gonna. Gagged, no flying, walking at one mile an hour, you bet they'd rather be on Ganymede. I don't think you need carrots as a bonus incentive there. Or you won't if you let them pick the Ganymede menu, anyway."

(Raafi would pick it, she doesn't say, but she does smile at Cam.)

"I'm not in charge of the menu."

"You in the general sense. But you might get any takers on this one, so I would like to think of a creative anti-rock protocol or at least a bunch of risk-reducers. What's the state of the art on not entering buildings?"

"You can do not going through doors."

"So we can do that and then they have more trouble sneaking up on sleeping people. Hm, actually, problem with the exertion of force limit, makes it easy for a third party to attach a rock to them they can't budge and then they're stuck, Kat, do you have a guess if that's OK as far as we're concerned?"

"If they have a way to call for help about it, or if we have someone watching to help them. I think Pelor's church would be willing to watch, if there won't be too many of them. Maybe make it illegal, too, if you can. Not being able to go through doors at all is a problem, though, I think - that might be best solved with some sort of optional escort."

"We can't make things illegal, we can only make things circling offenses or not according to what our subscribers prefer," says Tomás.

"I guess it would depend on the definition of 'door'," says Cam. "Okay, I just failed two times in a row to follow a column heading to the square I was checking, break for a few?"

"All right," says Tomás.

Kat follows Cam out. "Thank you for helping with this, it seems like you're really making a difference."

"It's no problem."

She nods. "Is this a good time to talk about your trip to Oerth? I'm not sure what if anything you're expecting there."

"I do actually want to talk about that but this might not be enough time. In particular I want to know if any Oerth magic is dangerous to daeva. If so maybe someone with more risk tolerance would be a better fit, I like being immortal and stuff."
