We can take it if we have to. If. It'll be a rough fight, and I'd prefer not to spend so much mana.
"As do I. But, this one's not fully... awake yet. Most of its power is there, but not even half the technique. It can't show its real splendor in a fight, not yet. Though, I'd be happy to show you once Lucida is at its best. It's already a fantastic weapon, I can only imagine how strong your mother must have been to give birth to such a sword."
Lauffeuer: ”I suppose it would be pointless to fight when Lucida is not at full strength. I will leave you, for now.”
The witch slowly takes a few steps back, the flames in the area quickly going out.
Lauffeuer: ”Your weapon has the ring of a queen, the children will attempt to seek you out. Should you harm any of them, I will not hesitate to crush you.”
There’s a sudden implosion of air, and the witch is gone. Andrew lets out a breath of relief.
Andrew: ”I didn’t think I’d ever come face to face with a witch queen, much less survive an encounter.”
Lucida: ’Ring of a queen?’ Some sort of witch signal? ____________________

You shake her hand.
"The pleasure is mine, Kura."

Kura: ”I’m going to go run some paperwork and then see about calling some movers, shouldn’t take too long.”
She heads off into another section of the building.

The gate shamans nod, and move to form a large circle.
Bauen: ”We will tell you when it is safe to traverse.”
Holding their hands up, they remain still. Several seconds pass without happening.
And then a tiny point of light appears in the center of their ring, cackling with energy and incinerating the grass. The light slowly grows and turns into a black void, the occasional whisp of light and small twisted beast leaping out and running into the woods. The gate then becomes a perfect image of a field, warping a few times before stabilizing.
Bauen: ”It is safe to cross - do so quickly.” ____________________

Is there a supernatural ability you know of that is distinct from arcane and spirit magic? Something that, at its most basic level, would let you control aspects of space instead of matter?

The three of you quickly leap through the gate, ending up in the bright, grassy field. The gate quickly shrinks and vanishes.
Looking around, you appear to be not too far south of Vranhal.

You pop a Locate up above and forward. The forward one reveals nothing, but the one above picks up a single entity. It feels vaguely human, but you're not completely sure. Whatever it is, it seems to be idling around a bit away from the grate, it's possible that you might be able to ascend to the ground unnoticed. Maybe. ____________________

Lucida: Well, I've always wanted to have kids. Wait...
The two of you head to Fluustern, traveling some distance before Andrew holds up his hand.
Andrew: Something's coming this way.
Soon enough, a pair of red eyes appear from the darkness of the forest, and a creature slightly shorter than you reveals itself. It looks similar to the witch queen, but lacks the orange flare, and only has two red eyes.
It looks at you quizzically with its head slanted sideways, and vocalizes in some distorted, static-like bird call.
Lucida: Do we tell it to go away or something? ____________________

Is there a supernatural ability you know of that is distinct from arcane and spirit magic? Something that, at its most basic level, would let you control aspects of space instead of matter?
You follow her to the hall where the leviathan stone is kept, and she places her hand on the interface bar.
Tabi: "I AM THE GREAT LEV- wait."
She takes a minute or so before turning to you.
Tabi: "Huh. Apparently the first runic magic was based on a spirit, and the Ruhe destroyed the spirit. Guess the resurgence of runic magic is due to another spirit appearing, or Kaasiala - the original runic spirit, returning? Anyways, what did you want to ask?"
You tell her what you want to say to Rauha.
Tabi: " 'There is a legend in the otherworld about something called 'The First Pinch,' it was the first known incident of this world and the otherworld having an interaction. Although the First Pinch didn't last long, many spirits were able to analyze it and attempted to replicate it - this led to higher tier spirits, Fourths and higher, creating pinches from the otherworld into this world, and their abilities first manifested in this world as space manipulation. I do not know a name for the root of the ability, but it has some similarities to Gates. Magic disruption, teleportation, creating pockets of space, all have the same root.
So, to answer your question - yes, there exists a root ability, but I do not know much of it. Perhaps you could ask a friendly witch, they are well-known space manipulators.' "

Re: Ad Infidium (Roll 253)
Let's see if we can talk to it, I guess. It'd be better to know how to deal with them if they're going to be a recurring problem. Andrew, what's it thinking? "Hey there poppet. Not quite a queen like you were expecting, huh?"

Andrew: Uh, doesn't exactly think like humans or chirop or lupus, I can only get a rough idea.
The witchling vocalizes some more, in a tone that sounds almost questioning.
Andrew: It's confused? Asking a question? You're an unknown - it's asking what you are. Oh, it also seems to be trying to translate.
Witchling: "Who? Who?"
It does this while pointing one of its clawed fingers at you.

"Um... not a queen, or a mother. I'm a witch Friend? Friend, yes. Uncle maybe." This is so weird.

It walks around you and Andrew, inspecting the two of you.
Andrew: It's really confused. You make a... A mother's call? Mother's sound? Scent? Something like that. Far-reaching signal of some sort that a mother makes.
The witchling stops circling, standing back in front of the two of you.
Andrew: Pretty baffled.
Witchling: "I follow yoouu? Follow friend friend."
Andrew: Seems clear enough.

"Okay then. My name is John, his name is Andrew." > Quick point over at Andrew for clarification. "What's your name?"

It lets out another chirp, this one starting out shrill and wavering, before dropping to a low, smooth tone.
Andrew: That was its name. Means something like, dangerous sneaking? Hidden danger? I don't know their language structure, the shrilly high tone was 'danger', the low tone was 'sneaky' or 'deceptive.'
Lucida: Something like a trouble maker, maybe?
Andrew: Maybe.
It looks at you.
Witchling: "John."
It turns to Andrew.
Witchling: "Ann, jeroo. Andrew."

Alright so now John's getting mischievous witchling pets for Lucida. Fun. Good luck entering the next town without incident, imo.

What the hell have I gotten us into. > Attempt to say the witch's name. If I totally mangle that, try with whistling.
