Randi, standing by Karis, speaks for the first time. "You could ask your friend Moondance, no? The one who gets visions from his Goddess." 

"I'd have to Gate to k'Treva. Does that really seem worth it, to make a decision on whether we let Cam feed people?" 

"You could tell me which way it is and I could ask? Assuming they share a language with Vanyel."

"We both speak Tayledras, yes. I...could get you a map? But one of us had better come with you. They - don't take kindly to strangers, out there in the Pelagirs. ...I mean, I know you'd be fine, but it'd scare them, and it'd still be rude, right?" 

"Sure, the shuttle can accommodate an escort if that's the done thing."

"...Hmm, in that case, maybe I'll send Vanyel with you. Get him away from here, so people stop giving him work to do when he's supposed to be having a break." She gives Tantras a very irritated look. 

Karis is still very quiet. She looks...tense, but not exactly upset with Cam. 

"If this is the step that makes the most sense to try next, then - sure, I guess, go ahead." 

"I'm open to other suggestions! But if you have real bona-fide prophecy flying around and it is concerned about darkness and ruin I don't want to go full bore on everything on my to-do list without doing some due diligence."

"....Foresight is definitely real. And comes true often enough, even if it can be averted. So - I agree it makes sense to be worried." 

Nod. "I'll go get Vanyel and, er, fill him in on this, then?" 

"Sure." 

Randi sags down into the nearest chair, looking suddenly very very tired. 

"Sorry to alarm you," Cam tells Karis.

She looks up, though not quite at him. 

"I do not understand," she says woodenly. "It - I thought they, the corrupt priesthood, I thought they did not speak for Vkandis..." 

"...would you like me to try offering you material objects and see if he'll possess you and set me on fire again? It's only mildly uncomfortable, I value avoiding it less than the information."

Based on Karis' frozen expression, this would not at ALL be the answer to the question that she's both desperate and desperately afraid to know. 

"I'll take that as a no."

:I think she probably needs a bit of time to absorb it: Savil tells Cam privately, after catching his eye so the Mindspeech won't come as a complete surprise. :Let's just go. Van's packing now: 

Cam follows Savil out.

Vanyel meets them on the path through the gardens, a travel-pack slung over his shoulders. 

"Heya. I, er - what just happened? The summary I got from 'Fandes is really confusing." 

"I went to Karse and talked to some people and one of 'em got possessed by Vkandis probably-maybe and then set me on fire. It was very rude. We're going to k'Treva to see if the folks there get more useful divine visions than that so I know what not to do."

"You think the person who got possessed had a Foresight vision?" Vanyel shivers. "...All right. Let's go." 

"Or Vkandis did, I'm not sure!"

Into the shuttle with them. It's a little snug for Yfandes but not by enough that Cam wants to just make an entire second shuttle about it.

Yfandes settles herself on the floor at Vanyel's feet, like some kind of very oversized dog. 

Vanyel pets her mane. He's quiet for the first couple of minutes of the flight. 

"...Are you worried?" he asks Cam eventually. "I'm, I just - I don't like this."
