[Video Post;]
[Is that a--? Yes, that would appear to be a crow, blinking into the camera of a Network device.



There are the branches barren winter trees all around it, snow in the air, and the sounds of labor and stone in the background. The crow looks over its shoulder (in that moment revealing a glimpse far below and behind of the Drowning Pool and the work going on in the middle of it). It turns back to the camera.]

My lord's plan proceeds apace!

[If a crow can grin, it seems almost to grin. A peck at the screen--peck!--and the video snaps back into darkness.]

[ooc: Cut for a large image of a crow's face. Another anonymous post! From a mysterious talking crow this time. Yes. Theo...darling, honey, sweetie... Yes, he's trolling you. Sry2say. But, hey, anyone can guess anything about a comment like that, now, can't they?]

Yes, we do! We can unlock all kinds of things. It's like making a door where there isn't one.

[unflagging]

After all, keys unlock things.

Perhaps you have unlocked the doors that lead between the worlds, yes?

And have you yet unlocked the doors from this place?

[I'm sorry to say this (no, I'm not), but he wants her magic now.]

[bendthekey]

Ah...no. I've never done that before. Not to say that it isn't possible, but it would take a Keymaster with more experience and skill than I. I'm only an Apprentice, currently. I still have more training to finish.

[Unlocking a the cage of a Death Reaper had already been far beyond her usual skill.]

[unflagging]

Of course it's possible. I wondered if you'd yet done it.

Well. Perhaps someday. With practice.

[Curses. Foiled again. But, still... It's interesting magic to come across. He will follow her closely, as best he can.]

[bendthekey]

Well, then to answer your question, then no. Although if I could find the door home from this place, I would give it a good try.

[Because getting home is very important to her.]

[unflagging]

Wouldn't we all?

[bendthekey]

[She smiles.] Likely, I would think. Unless someone enjoys being here, which they are more than welcome to do. It's not so bad.

[unflagging]

If I could come and go as I please, as is my wont, I would not mind it in the least.

[bendthekey]

Yes, that is exactly what I think! It's a very interesting place, but the experience would be nicer if we could leave and come back as we wanted. Has anyone ever asked the deities about that?

[unflagging]

Not that this humble servant has heard. Perhaps someone should petition them with such a thought, yes?

[bendthekey]

A good idea. If enough people explained that they wouldn't mind coming back if they could have the choice, maybe they would reconsider locking us here.

[unflagging]

Quite so.
