"Actually I think probably we shouldn't be talking to you anymore! I'm certain you could find ways of saying things under Truth Spell that would screw things up even more!" 

"- then what are you doing here?"

"Definitely not listening to anything you say! I told Randi I could come deliver this message because I think I might be literally the only person in Haven capable of ignoring when you talk. Figured you ought to know how thoroughly you've messed everything up and that we do not currently see a way that it'd be reasonable to continue these talks." 

He glares at her a few moments longer, then storms out, shutting the door crisply on her. 

"I - w- - argh," she says to the closed door.

The closed door does not answer her. 

:...Amshalan?:

:–Oh, damn, what is it?:

:Tantras says the King says 'we do not currently see a way that it'd be reasonable to continue these talks' and I'm really unclear on - who I'm allowed to talk to? At all? Like, probably yes you and my dad, probably not any Heralds, Dara herself no idea, Shavri no idea - so that makes it hard to know if, like, I can offer to be fed someone else's phrasing for Truth Spells to the effect that I didn't expect or want Rolan to do that, or if I should just pack, or -:

:Hmm. I'm not sure. I know Vanyel offered to come talk to you and Tran shut that down. I - probably packing right now is premature, I'm not sure, maybe wait a few candlemarks and see if people calm down? Everyone is really in shock. Dara is - not in a good place to talk to people right now. No one's in a good place to make reasoned decisions. I don't think anyone is planning to send you packing right now, but mostly that's because they're not planning yet - I'm worried that if you push on it too soon they will: 

:Okay. Thank you:

:You're welcome. I'm really sorry this is happening:

:I'll live, if anybody was going to stab me I'd have expected it to be Tantras. I'd appreciate anything you're allowed to keep me posted on:

:I'll try: 

:Thank you:

And she doesn't know there's much point in adding to the letter at this point but does it anyway, because she can't actually just talk to Leareth.

:Vanyel pointed out in a meeting that he might get the dream again: Amshalan sends at one point. :Since he often does if he gets new information and this - sure appears to count as that. But now everyone's worried it isn't safe for him to talk to Leareth more and they're brainstorming if there are ways to reversibly block his Foresight, or if he should just stay up all night so they're not asleep at the same time: 

:That seems drastic, why can't he just yell 'I don't want to talk to you today' and then not go near him and then verify he did that in the morning?:

:Honestly everyone would think that was reasonable except for Tran, who doesn't trust Vanyel not to decide to tell Leareth all our secrets for some reason: 

:Ah:

:I'll, er, let you know if I find out more: Amshalan seems kind of distracted, and drops the connection. 

Belrun doesn't think this needs to be added to the letter. She notebooks to herself instead.

Another few candlemarks later - it's getting into the evening by now - she gets another shaky Mindtouch. :Belrun?: 

:Dara! Are you okay - I'm so sorry -:

:It's not your fault. That's - why I'm telling you - please don't talk to anyone else - but I'd be so upset if you thought it were your fault...: 

:- I don't think it would have happened without me but that's not exactly the same thing:

:I don't think it is. Anyway. It's done now, and - nobody's going to trust me here anymore, they haven't really said it yet but I know they're thinking I'm probably bad now. So I'm leaving. My ma needs me more than Haven does, at this point:
