The witchling whistles the tune back at you, bobbing its head before heading off into the forest. With that encounter done, you head into Fluustern.
The city has numerous huts and domes that feature colorful decorations, and lupus in a variety of clothing from subtle to outlandish walk the streets. A lupus in a shamanistic robe greets you at the edge of the city.
Shaman: "Welcome to Fluustern. I assume you are on a mission of great importance, judging from the strength of your armor."
You give a quick eyebrow raise and a smile - not that that’s easy to see from under Lucida’s helm.
"Oh? You could tell? Yes, I'm looking for a lupus and a chirop who came through here recently. May have been asking about someone knowledgeable in spirits and constructs? Oh, and uh, I don't suppose you know anyone who knows a lot about witches, do you?"
Shaman: ”There was an amateur shaman and a westerner chirop that entered town a few days ago, I believe they went to see Madenuuk, one of our, more stranger shamans. He lives at the south-west edge of town in a human house.
As for an expert on witches, there is Aandern, he is at the north-east edge of town. His dwelling looks like a mansion made from a pile of shacks, though it is sturdier than it looks.”
You improve your 14.3 cap mana stone with another 100 mana, bumping it up to 31. ____________________

"Hold one moment. Stahlnacht? I need your assistance."
Shedding your current armor, you suddenly find sheets of flesh crawling over your body, encasing you in a suit of muscle and tissue that soon grows a layer of lustrous black metal on the surface. Tabi and Kura watch the feat with a look of horror, especially after you drop the *first* suit of witch metal armor, which seems to be slightly smelly by now.
"Please don't be alarmed - I know, it's witchmetal. I don't expect trouble on this route, but it is better to muster all the protection we can for this cargo."
Tabi: "It made a new suit!?"
Kura: "Um. Are you going to use the one on the ground."
...
"This was not what I expected at all. I'm sorry. Perhaps we should have someone secure and carry away that carcass? It may be valuable to someone with specialized academic interests."
Kura: ”Oh! If you’re making a donation to the museum, then I’d gladly take it!”
The curator calls over some other staff members to carry the old witchmetal suit away, giving them instructions to preserve and store it.
Kura: ”Anyways, hopefully the armor won’t be needed - I hired some sandcoats, and they’re pretty good at fending off bandits. We should be ready to go if you are.”
Tabi: ”I’m good to go.
How’s that armor feeling?”
Well, you can feel through it, so it’s as functional as before. ____________________

You stop casting Illuminate and, carefully pushing the grate to rest on the ground, pull yourself out of the tunnel.
Walking slowly towards the wrought-iron fence that encloses the boarding school grounds, the girl notices you and moves towards you as well.
The two of you reach the fence, on opposite sides, but you keep your distance while she presses her face against the bars.
Girl: ”Are you here to take them from me? Please take them from me, I can’t carry them anymore. They won’t stop screaming, it hurts please take them, please.” ____________________

"Others not been as successful..." >Rub site of wound from that damned glove chap. "Guess I was lucky?"
>Follow escort to houseplace.
You, Horoma, and Miimas follow the guard leading you out of the office. Tuhota, who was waiting in the hall, tags along, apparently staying with you too.
Still close to the center of town is a two-story house of white stone, gated off from the outside streets. The escort hands you, Miimas, and Horoma a key, along with a small pouch each.
Escort: "The lord's compensation for your efforts so far. Enjoy your stay."
The escort leaves while Horoma opens up her pouch.
Horoma: "Ten gold in mine."
She hands you three gold coins.
Horoma: "Now we're even."
After taking the three gold from Horoma, your party enters the house.
"Guess we can just wait 'round here for a bit."
It’s well-furnished, with a living room ahead, some general-use room to the left, and a staircase to the right.
The four of you head upstairs, finding four bedrooms and a washroom. Picking the bedroom closest to the stairs, you head in and close the door.
Setting the coffin down, you sit with your back against the bed and relax.
Concentrating on your own soul, you focus on feeling how it works, flexing here and there until you think you’ve found your own possession. It’s difficult to maintain a view of, so to speak, but after Meditating with 5 mana, it becomes a bit more clear.
Your meditating not only improves your awareness of yourself, but of your surroundings, hearing light footsteps heading downstairs.
Horoma: ”I’m going shopping.”
Tuhota: ”Ooh! Can I come wi-”
Horoma: ”No.”
The door to the house opens and closes, and then again as someone else leaves. ____________________

The two of you walk over to Jala, taking a peak of the painting.
Layers of delicate, textured brushstrokes cover the canvas, giving the fields and sky a vivid, lively appearance. Individual dots of the tip of the paintbrush are used to create clusters of leaves, something that must require an immense amount of patience.
Jala: "How does it look?"
The hunchback remains facing forward, painting with excruciating detail.
Jala: "It will be displayed in my dwelling, some nice green to brighten up the indoors. Like a window, but permanently day!"
Ettiin: "Wow, that's pretty great. Maybe you could decorate the inside of the tower, everyone's getting tired of stone-grey." ____________________

You, Tabi, and Kura head outside.
In front of the museum are two wagons - one with a casket, which the six movers cover with a tarp, and another that has some piece of magic machinery and a chirop with a heavy pack.
Around the wagons are exactly a dozen chirop with light tan coats - the mercenaries, you assume.
While five of the movers take the wagon with the casket and the mercenaries stick with walking, the rest of you board the other wagon. They seem to be powered with a mana-driven motor, steered with a wheel that protrudes from a pole in front of the foremost seat.
Some of the mercs give you an odd look, but don't say anything to you as the convoy makes its way through the city and enters the forest path east, each wagon operated by a mover.
Kura: "So, this is Luoda, acquaintance of mine that has helped me with various tinkering jobs in the past. She's brought some tools and a mana source for us to use."
She gestures to the pack-wearing chirop who gives a small wave.
Luoda: "Nice armor there. Is that real witch metal? Or the best replication I've seen yet?" ____________________

You pop your helm off for now and head off towards the south-west end of town, Andrew following behind.
The streets are full of various vendors and intricately dressed shamans, many giving you a lookover as you pass them, a few even commenting on Lucida's armor.
At the south-west edge of town, you find a human house that doesn't even seem like a common human design for the area. Angled shutter roofing isn't outlandish, but the large vertical windows and blue wood paneling sure are.
Stepping onto the porch, you give the door a few knocks. There's the sound of a small person running over to the door, which quickly opens up to reveal a small girl just a tad higher than your waist.
She has pure white hair and glimmering blue eyes, and has a short sleeved white shirt overtop another slightly-larger black shirt. Doll joints are visible on her elbows, hands and fingers.
She's a doll?

"Oh, alright then. Are you Madenuuk's assistant?"
Girl: ”Um, I think so. I’m helping him build more dolls, but we’re low on parts. Well, we have lots of regular parts, but we need special parts that are hard to get.”
There are footsteps behind the girl, and a bizarre thing approaches the doorway.
It looks lupus in form, but is wearing a black sleeved dress, hands concealed by poor-fitting gloves. The lupus’s(?) face is obscured by a black veil and hat.
It speaks with a voice that you can’t really decide whether it’s a wolf or a human, or male or female.

Luoda: "Nice armor there. Is that real witch metal? Or the best replication I've seen yet?"
"I think it may be the real thing. The underside of this armor is lined with living flesh, and I suspect that it somehow attaches to my body. Could an imitation support organic, bleeding AM?
I woke up with it on, after a rather disturbing dream where an armored witch engulfed me.
Tabi! Did you want to try your interface on the thoughts this shell emits? Does it reflect my thoughts or present a witch's?"
Tabi: ”Uh, lemme check.”
She pulls out her interface brick, fiddling with it for a few seconds.
Tabi: ”It seems to be picking up your major muscle statuses, but that could just be it picking up the armor’s, which is I guess replicating your outer muscles. Some touch sensory information, too.
Don’t seem to be any thoughts, though.”
Luoda: ”So, a suit of not just witch metal, but the living flesh as well. Sounds extremely dangerous, do you know if that has proper countermeasures against witch corruption?”
Tabi: ”Is that any different from normal corruption?”
Luoda: ”If regular corruption is the random alteration of magic, witch corruption is a alteration with intent - specifically, to aid the witch. It only happens with queen cores, specifically the focuses, but those tend to be the most desirable, since the lower rank cores aren’t anywhere near as powerful. Early constructs with queen core focuses usually resulted in growing an entirely new witch with the construct being a part of the witch’s form, and then you get brand new types of dimensional monsters.
Witch queen focuses can corrupt people, too, but that takes prolonged direct contact with either the focus or things produced or controlled by the focus. Like, your suit.”
The convoy exits the forest and makes it to the watchtower, where you see Ettiin and Vandolf watching someone with a massive hunchback paint a picture on a hill.
Kura: ”Alright, let’s get this casket to the top!”
The curator hops off the wagon and starts ordering the movers around while the mercenaries talk with the tower guards and join the lookout, while Luoda seems to be on the fence between following Kura and analyzing your suit. ____________________

You try to feel how your possession is attached. It's attached... Firmly? Not really any wiggle room at the moment, and attempting to push or flex it doesn't make it give any.
A light tap on your door interrupts your inner exploration.
Miimas: "Hey Kyeltziv, did you want to get something to eat?"
You make a mental note of what the feeling was like so you can work on it later.
"Sure, don't see why not."
Could probably leave a few things here, no need to lug it all around.

The two of you walk over to Jala, taking a peak of the painting.
Layers of delicate, textured brushstrokes cover the canvas, giving the fields and sky a vivid, lively appearance. Individual dots of the tip of the paintbrush are used to create clusters of leaves, something that must require an immense amount of patience.
Jala: "How does it look?"
The hunchback remains facing forward, painting with excruciating detail.
Jala: "It will be displayed in my dwelling, some nice green to brighten up the indoors. Like a window, but permanently day!"
Ettiin: "Wow, that's pretty great. Maybe you could decorate the inside of the tower, everyone's getting tired of stone-grey."
"Incredible work, Rala. It takes quite a bit of talent to recreate a scene so wonderfully."
The three of you are silent for a while, watching Jala paint.
After some time passes, you notice a pair of wagons surrounded by a dozen chirop in brown coats approaching the tower. The wagons seem to be carrying some cargo as well as more people, and you can make out the curator, Tabi, and some guy in sleek, shiny black armor with forward-swept horns on the helm.
Ettiin: ”Oh look! They’re here!”
The curator and several chirop take the casket off of one of the wagons and enter the tower, with the tan-coats talking with the guards before joining them in guard duty. ____________________
-Paper (Spirit Map Runic Spell) -Paper (Spirit Map Runic Spell 2) -Paper (Light Grenade Runic Spell) -Paper (Taschenblitz) >Make a similar rune spell, one that is armed once its mana reserves increase by 0.5, like before. When it is armed, it locks onto the nearest spirit with a complexity over 30 and treats this spirit as its master. If the master spirit is within 8 meters, the spell will always do nothing. If the master spirit is farther away than that however, it will release all of its mana as light if a spirit with complexity over 30 comes within 2 meters of it. -Paper (Taschenblitz II) >Locks onto the nearest spirit with a complexity over 30 and treats this spirit as its master. If the master spirit is within 8 meters, the spell will always do nothing. If the master spirit is farther away than that however, it will release all of its mana as light evenly distributed 0.5 meters away from the compass if a spirit with complexity over 30 comes within 2 meters of it. -Paper (Fire Mine) >Locks onto the nearest spirit with a complexity over 30 and treats this spirit as its master. If the master spirit is within 8 meters, the spell will always do nothing. If the master spirit is farther away than that however, it will release all of its mana as heat from the compass if a spirit with complexity over 30 comes within 2 meters of it. -Paper (Mana Storage) >Rune spell that searches for the closest spirit with complexity over 30. If that spirit is very, very close, ie approximately held against their chest, then it transfers its mana into that creature. -Paper (Mana Storage 2) >Rune spell that searches for the closest spirit with complexity over 30 if the rune is set to T. If that spirit is very, very close, ie approximately held against their chest, then it transfers 2 mana into that creature and sets to F. Must be taken out of the specified range to set back to T. -Paper (Obscuring Light) upon activation locks onto the nearest spirit and treats it as its master. It then looks for the most complex spirit that isn't its master within 20 meters and creates a 6 meter cube around that spirit with points of light, meant to obscure that spirit's vision

I'm here to check up on him, he's been gone without updates for a few days. Have you, er, seen him recently?"
