"...people in Arcadia can have kids, right?"

Permalink

"Petitioners such as myself, who died and then came here, cannot. Visitors from other planes can."

Permalink

"How does murder work when most people around are already dead?"

Permalink

"...we can be more permanently destroyed. We are not invincible, only difficult to kill."

Permalink

"Oh... then I don't understand why there isn't a section on pollution? I figured maybe most people don't have to go to the bathroom because of being dead and the people who do just figure that out somehow but if people can die here then there should probably be a section about that."

Permalink

"Excuse me for asking a question with an obvious answer, but how does death relate to pollution?"

Permalink

"Dead bodies are polluted."

Permalink

What does that even mean. She doesn't understand why she is the person who is supposed to solve this. Okay. Who can help with pollution? Or death...

"Usir is the god of death, rebirth, and the harvest. Perhaps he can assist you. It sounds to me that Heliopolis may have much to offer you. I will pray on this matter. In the meantime, we will find a place for you to stay where you will not come near any dead petitioners even by chance."

"I can just wash off in a river, that's okay for me, but if I'm going to move a lot of Amentans here I need to figure something out."

Permalink

"None of our gods are primarily concerned with pollution caused by dead bodies, but we may find a magical solution as well. I will consult with Usir, and perhaps you can return when we have brought one of his priests here."

Permalink

"A magical solution would be GREAT. When should I come back?"

Permalink

What's a timescale a living person would think was sensible? She should try to move things along more quickly for this poor girl's sake. Unfortunately, she'll need to actually consult with priests of Usir to do this.

"On the long end, three months. I believe I can move the timeline up, since I understand primes feel a greater sense of urgency."

Permalink

"...okay, how far up?"

Permalink

"I will need to consult with the relevant priests to give you more information, and I cannot do that via magical means, as I do not have that capacity. I can give you updates on my progress if it is important to you to know precisely when this will happen."

Permalink

Daernir is not sure he can add anything, but he mostly wants to say that Lintalai is smart and if they let her help, it'll happen even faster; he's not sure if that's even true, really, he barely knows her.

Permalink

"How would I get the updates?"

Permalink

"I can send you messages via mage or by angel, unless you have something else in mind."

Permalink

"I've never gotten a message either of those ways before, what is it like?"

Permalink

"A mage will speak a short message, up to 25 words, directly to your mind. You can return a message of the same length. Angels can deliver messages of any length, spoken or written, but unlike with mages, they cannot do so instantly."

Permalink

"What if I'm asleep when you send the message?"

Permalink

"A mage cannot send a message to a sleeping person, but an angel would simply arrive at a more convenient time."

Permalink

"Okay, an angel message will be fine."

Permalink

"Is there anything else Neselthia can help you with today?"

Permalink

"I don't think so..." She looks at Daernir.

Permalink

"Where do you find your wizards?"
