The Map Provided by the Arcane Sons...

Cara,
We only just placed it so it's not really wrong, I just forgot to update everyone.

Mantel,
The Ritual we used to Portal into where Cennius was defending himself, the portals he used, took us two weeks to prepare and activate. The Ritual was not a simple sheet, it was a tome.

Felika's Void gate, having experienced it first hand after, will literally place anyone in the void if not met with the right time. It would take someone merely seconds to die if was done wrong.

I agree, that in a perfect scenario we would be able to make it to these places and perhaps someone can find a way to. However I will hold my breath because we don't even know if the others have been activated yet, or when they will, or if we could even find the buildings they were in. While important, I must agree with Cara that we cannot divert full attention to these ritual portals, perhaps if some are willing to look into it sure, but we must prepare ourselves and our town to face the coming trials.

You will never hear me suggesting we divert full attention to any one Aspect of Threat, and I do wish that assumption would cease being the default.

Thank you for the clarifications on Cennius' Chaos Portals, and Fellika's. There are other kinds of chaos portals, however; Abyssal, for example. I've also been through at least one other kind.

I think this entire situation is wholesale a trap; Necrophitus will use it as a bargaining chip at his more dire moment. The moment we go to strike him down, he will reveal some sort of Dead Man Ritual; if we kill him, these pools of evil will be unleashed. We need to be prepared to go directly into war with them.

At the very least, we should beckon our allies with this information and prepare them for the impending threat.

Mantel an' Cara,

I'll get on a plan. I'm a Blood Spirit an' a MacFhionnlaigh, this is wha' I do, this is wha' I was raised ta do since I was a wee bairn.

Mantel,

I will make a point to discuss this with my superiors. We should be ready or at least try to be ready for possible eventualities.

Travancian forces are quick learners. We'll come to handle these new changes as we prepare ourselves against Necrofitus. And I highly doubt Travance's attention will turn from this abomination any time soon. I'm currently working with all other Blood Spirit heroes in an attempt to collect our bearings after this supposed universal change, that we may work together more efficiently as a unit. Our goal is the preservation of Kormyre, and Arawyn as a whole above all else. I believe that ALL of Travance should follow suit. Now is the time to set aside differences, be they national, racial, cultural, spiritual, or otherwise. All of us, united as one, have the potential of eliminating this threat for good. But we need to do it together.
And Mantel, Cara, Leliana?
I'll stand by each of you, and all others as you work hard for our efforts. The understandings magic are not my strong suit, but what I do understand is that it's going to be needed, you and three are some of the best to handle it. Nothing will stop you from success through your hard work. I will see to that personally.

Given the vision of Necrophitus I’m sure we all just shared, all the rituals have opened at once. Now is the time to make our choices. All of those we love are at risk. We must all band together in strength and unity, not scatter in fear.
