[Multi-year? That seems... suboptimal.]

[It's what we've got. Some small abilities can be finagled in months but even normal teleportation takes years.]

[Well. That definitely changes my priorities. I should get in touch with my friends and let them know that... I won't be home for a while. It's going to take me about a candlemark and I'll need - oh crud.]

[Mm?]

[My Scrying mirror is in the Bag of Holding, so I'll need a new one. About a palm wide and two high, silver.]

[Okay, that shouldn't be all that hard to come by if it doesn't have to be specially prepared in any way and just has to be a silvered mirror yea big. Or d'you mean all silver no glass?]

[It needs to be of very good quality, but I'm not sure how that translates to your standards. The main issue is that... I'm not sure I can afford it with the coins I have at hand. At home I'd go to the mage guild and just sell my spells for a couple days, do you have anything similar here?]

[No mage guild as such but I know people, if you want to tell me what your spells can do. But I could also just front you the money for the mirror, unless your quality standards are actually really hard to meet.]
