Asmodea follows you northeast.
Beneath the toadstool.
Muttering quietly to herself, Wise Lamella is here, hunched over a bubbling
cauldron.
You see exits leading northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest.

You greet Wise Lamella with a sincere smile.

Wise Lamella says, "More puffballs I need, grow in the Tryko they do. Touched by
the Madness some have been, so wary be."

You nod your head at Asmodea.

You say, "Take it away."

You say, "I need to think about something."

Asmodea Kamau, Winter's Fury says to Wise Lamella, "Greetings wise lady."

Wise Lamella says, "Greeted you are, greeted you are."

Asmodea's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.

You bow respectfully to Wise Lamella.
Wise Lamella cackles hellishly.

Wise Lamella says, "Something for you I may do, yes?"

Asmodea Kamau, Winter's Fury says, "We were just wondering if you had felt the
rumbling recently?"

Wise Lamella says, "Yes, yes. All feel it, all fear it."

You crease your brow in a frown.

Asmodea Kamau, Winter's Fury says, "Have you any insight as to what might be
happening or what might be causing it?"

Wise Lamella says, "The pain I sense."

Wise Lamella says, "Though little else I do."

You tilt your head curiously.

Asmodea Kamau, Winter's Fury says, "Can you sense where the pain may be
centered?"

Wise Lamella ponders the situation.

Wise Lamella says, "All things it is."

Wise Lamella says, "More than one place it is."

Wise Lamella says, "More than one thing. See enough you do not."

Wise Lamella smiles sadly, before turning her gaze to her cauldron.

Asmodea wraps a comforting arm around Wise Lamella.

You ask, "Do you know how we might see more? To know more before it becomes too
late?"

You say, "Everything is crying out, but we don't know how to help. Not without
knowing."

Wise Lamella says, "Too late? Too late it already was."

You blink.

You ask, "Howso? These...changes...are they from something that happened a long
time ago now?"

Wise Lamella says, "Now is the end. The end is now."

You crease your brow in a frown.

You ask, "Not after all that has been given to secure the survival of our
world...surely something can be done..?"

Wise Lamella says, "See salvation I do not. The end, only."

Wise Lamella murmurs softly to herself.

You crease your brow in a frown.

Asmodea gives a pained sigh.

You say, "Then we'll have to make it ourselves then."

Wise Lamella shrugs helplessly.

You ask, "I won't be limited by inevitability, but wise lady, surely someone
somewhere might have seen this coming?"

Wise Lamella says, "Earth and Water, nearly dead they are."

You suck thoughtfully on your teeth.

Wise Lamella says, "No time. The brink of the end is now."

You frown and say to Asmodea, "Any other questions?"

Asmodea shakes her head at you.

You say, "We need to get moving, but I don't know where to take the next step."

You suck thoughtfully on your teeth.

Asmodea ponders the situation.

Putting one soft, mushroomy hand on Xiel's shoulder, Wise Lamella says, "Rest.
Say goodbye."

You rub your eyes tiredly.

You say, "Thank you for your guidance, wise lady."

You bow respectfully to Wise Lamella.

Wise Lamella says, "Tomorrow maybe, no more will there be."

Asmodea curtseys respectfully before Wise Lamella.
Wise Lamella chants harshly under her breath, stirring the viscous contents of
her cauldron with a bare hand.

Wise Lamella says, "Maybe five tomorrows."

You blink.

You say, "So little time."

Wise Lamella says, "But either way, it does not matter."

You crease your brow in a frown.

Wise Lamella exclaims, "I said the brink! Brink! No more!"

You say, "We'll make the most of it. Thank you."

You say, "I need to make a post."

You say to Asmodea, "Unless you want to?"

Wise Lamella says, "There will be days of pain. Months, maybe."

You nod your head affirmatively at Wise Lamella.

You say, "We will face it head on."

You say, "Anything for our commune."

Wise Lamella says, "There will be no 'we'."

You blink.

Wise Lamella says, "There will be only pockets."

Smiling sadly, Wise Lamella says, "Even we lesser spirits of Nature have our
means."

Wise Lamella says, "I can see the future, though perhaps no as blessed as other
great ones."

You say, "You see enough to give us warning."

You say, "And this is something I deeply appreciate."

Wise Lamella says, "I see enough to see the end."

You say, "We'll need to prepare...hrm.."

Asmodea Kamau, Winter's Fury says, "We all appreciate your incites."

You nod your head affirmatively.

Wise Lamella says, "I see the ceiling shattering, I see the floors erupting. I
see many dying, I see few surviving, I see an end to all things."

Wise Lamella smiles sadly, returning to her cauldron.

You say, "Our commune has to know this."

You say, "If there's a chance for survival."

Asmodea nods her head at you.

Wise Lamella says, "What point?"

You say, "They must know."

Wise Lamella shrugs helplessly.

You say, "Even if it might not be myself."

Wise Lamella says, "Good luck."

You say, "Thank you, wise lady."
