"I propose we contact them once a month to see if they are ready. After 6 months, the offer expires. I want to limit contact. If they want more time, they'll need a bigger gap on the contact intervals. Can you get that information to them and negotiate a time?"

"I can do that. I will talk with him and work out the details of the timing. So you agree then? As reward for getting your people back to you, you'll get my people offworld? "

"Once I speak to Incarius again, I'll get back to you with a check in schedule. I speak with him when I am dreaming, so should I remain with you until we get this figured out, or should I make other arrangements and come back?"

"I have a letter of introduction and plan on seeing if I can learn some of the local magic at the guild while I'm here. Is that a problem if I stay with you guys?"

Leter, at the Guild...

Ravalen: "I see your talent and its limits. That's a very interesting gift."

He doesn't have the experience. He could pick it out again, but not figure out what it is. Besides being a radical body transformation.

(Gaurdian here means parent or gaurdian)

"It has been handy to have! Feeling a bunch of kinda, subtext or whatever with magic is really cool. I want to learn more about the fundamentals of how it all works and what different kinds of magic have in common. I'm curious about using what's good about one magic with another, or about improvising stuff. I'm a lego guy.. that's kind of like building blocks that come in a box with a picture of what you can build with them, but I like building my own thing with the pieces I get to make something better."

"You're working with Incarius Black? You're aware that he's almost certainly not human? He came from no where and rose to prominence far too quickly. He's almost certainly an elf or dragon or some other long-lived creature in disguise."

"A dragon! How wonderful that would be! I've always wanted to meet one. There aren't any on my world except in stories."

"If Incarius is secretly some powerful creature, as someone in his employ, he would probably not want me to entertain such a subject and help him to keep his secret and if he is not, he would probably not want me to dissuade people from thinking that as it could come in handy. So it's probably best for me not to speculate."

"Does he know you're here? Do I need to negotiate permission to take you as an apprentice with him?"

"No, nothing like that. I just have a job to do that's my priority right now. My bit may be wrapping up for a while. It may be a few days before I know for sure. And for how long are you planning on travelling? "

"My time table for travel is when my apprentice is ready."

"I was looking for some local instruction I could return to between errands for my employer, and it seems you are looking for a full time apprentice... and now that I say it out loud I feel a little dumb, because obviously that's how this would work."
