Ki’stha: "We are an emergency diplomatic envoy organised by the cities east of the Anri, we urgently need to interview a prisoner we believe to be held at this facility."

Receptionist: "An interview can be arranged. Who must you speak to?"

John: "His name is Matis Emiel, he's a construct mage."

Receptionist: "Alright, I'll need to take your names down for records, if you're all going, and then you can follow the guards."

You write down your name on a clipboard, P’orihc and Ki’stha writing their names after, and then head over to the guards.

P’orihc: "Thanks!"

The two guards lead you down a wide hallway that has evenly spaced doors towards the center of the building, stopping at one of them and then turning to face you.

Guard 1: ”You are guaranteed privacy in conversation, but all magic will be monitored. Magic-based life support systems will not receive interference from walking into the room. However, any magic usage that is deemed any way suspicious will be cancelled and you will face charges depending on the severity of your act. Is that understood?”

The three of you give the affirmative, and the guard opens the door. You head in, entering a room with an artificial light fixture on the ceiling and mirrored panes on the left and right walls. A door is at the back of the room, a table in the center, three chairs on your side, one chair on the opposite.

You, P’orihc, and Ki’stha take a seat, taking a look at the human on the other side of the table. A few wrinkles, short greying hair, a bit of stubble, and wearing a light grey uniform.

Emiel: ”So, what can I do for you?”

Name: Kleigg (TheKebbit)
Race: Human
____________________

Taking out a paper bomb, you attach a much longer thread to the detonation string from the spool so you can set it off from much further away.

Tabi makes her move, chucking an arrow with a paper bomb attached to it at one of the entrances to the tower, blowing open the door.

Tabi: ”Alright, go time!”

Breaking into a sprint, you partially circle the building to find an entrance away from her. It’s not hard to find another door, but it’s locked with another of those advanced identification card systems. Waiting a few seconds provides fruitful, however, as the door bursts open and chirop run out, giving you the opportunity to run inside without anyone giving you a second glance.

Alright, gotta find a staircase. A few paces down the hall and you find the stairs, heading down and checking each level for something that would look like it would have machinery, and find something machine-like on the third level below ground.

A circular catwalk surrounds the massive room, where there are six large metal domes surrounded by pipes and valves and magic-y doodads. Well, looks like you’re going to need more than a single long-range paper bomb, so you whip up five more and start fastening them to the machines. As soon as you finish the sixth, the door on the opposite side of the room where you entered bursts open, Tabi jumping off the catwalk and onto the ground below.

Tabi: ”Only one per machine? Let’s bump it up to three.”

18 Paper bombs and a lot of thread later, and you have 3 rigged paper bombs per machine, each dome’s set of charges linked to a pull string.

Seems like the setup is good enough, so the two of you exit the building through the path you took, giving the strings a firm tug before running out of the door.

Ten seconds later, and the ground tremors from the force of 18 paper bombs going off. The tower miraculously stays upright - probably built to withstand severe damage.

Other explosions sound in other parts of the city, other members of the spiral completing their objectives.

Tabi: ”Mission complete, let’s head back.”

Guess bein' a spirit can be a whole world of weird.

"Seem i've got affixin' spirits down."

Madenuuk: ”Good, good. Unbinding a spirit is a similar process, but with removing the attachment to the body rather than creating one. It should be done with care, as a spirit that is detached can quickly attach itself to something, or someone, nearby. Detaching a spirit from a living creature rarely works. The spirit will, almost, always affix itself back to its body. Now, for what’s next. Hrmm. I do not suppose you care for the, traditions of a shaman? You strike me as very, utilitarian. It is custom of new shamans to find a spirit that is, compatible, with them, that they may share thoughts and beliefs and work together towards a common goal. There are some, extreme cases where shaman and companion spirit meld into a single entity. It is, not something that is taken lightly or encouraged, there are many malicious spirits who would take the opportunity to purge a shaman’s soul to obtain a fresh body.”

You head towards the inner city as the sun rises, on the lookout for a stupid-looking human in a cloak and/or armor. You’re about to ask a passerby if they’ve seen anyone of the description, but an explosion not too far off interrupts you. Another explosion in another part of the city follows after, and then another, and then another. Chirop and people hurry into buildings, some look around, trying to discern a source of the sound.

Emiel: "... That's... Huh... Well, the first step would be cracking Lucida's security sequences. That would normally be impossible, but I think I can figure it out. After that, it'd be figuring out what method the construct is using to contain his mind, spirit, whatever, and then safely transfer it into the not-sword. We'd also need to build the not-sword.
That probably didn't sound too specific, but there's not a whole lot of specificity you can give when you're talking about something like Takoa's weapons.

So, what's the plan? Some sort of back-and-forth communication? You have your guys in Vranhal build somethin', and there's someone running back and forth relaying information between me and the build team?"

You leave the scene of the crime with your chirop companion, attempting to avoid suspicious eyes as you casually walk into an alleyway. Right when you take a turn, however, you find yourself standing in front of a familiar lupus - Vandolf.

"Yea, not 'xactly a conventinal shaman.
No disrespect t' tradition, just not really got time for 'em now."

Madenuuk: ”Mm. The next thing to teach you is determining spirit signatures.

It is said that all spirits have a ‘name,’ a mark that symbolizes them. It is not something we can speak, but a symbol that they recognize. If a spirit is detached from the physical world, its signature can be used to call it back. That is why your medallion bears your signature - should you die, your spirit can be called back so you may still communicate with us.

That is partially true. Spirit signatures are not ‘discovered’, they are created and given. It is similar to affixing, but instead of a specific object to ‘bind’ the spirit to, it is a symbol.

I suppose I can also teach you about gates, though that’s a bit more adv-”

A clatter interrupts his sentence, and you turn to see Miimas and Horoma standing by a knocked-over pile of doll parts, a partially-assembled doll sitting on the floor near them. The two give a nervous smile as they pick the parts back up.

Madenuuk: ”Gates are a bit more advanced, and can be dangerous. They are openings that allow things from the otherworld to enter the physical world, and the other way around. They take immense energy to open and maintain, and can lead to catastrophic results if one is not careful. The physical world and the otherworld do not share the same rules, and anything from one world that enters the other is, converted, to agree with the rules of the world that it is entering.

I know! I shall teach you how to harvest mana stones and other magic parts from beasts. They are necessary in the fabrication of the dolls, and I need some to build a new one anyways. We can leave whenever you are ready, unless if you have other ideas?”

"Great, just great. Kleigg, what have you gotten yourself into this time?"

Alright, it hasn’t been too long, so you look carefully for anyone who looks suspicious, anyone who could’ve been a participant in the going-on. You spot a man in a brown cloak entering an alleyway with a chirop behind. Cloaks are suspicious, alleyways are suspicious, looks like you found a mark. Rushing to where you think the alley leads you, you quickly pace between the buildings, stopping when the robed man and the chirop round the corner and end up standing right in front of you. The man is Kleigg.
