The larger man in green gasps a sharp intake of breath as his friend gloats.
"Oh, come on, Zarik!" he groans, "There's no possible way you pulled that one out!" Shuffling through the cards on the table and looking at what appears to be notes on the game, it's clear Arendal is at a loss to come up with a reason that Zarik is wrong about his supposition. With a sigh, he adds, "You know, this doesn't make any sense. Nothing about this game's design makes any sense!" |

Aren notices Sylvie walk over and silently motions her to him. He also scoots her book out of the way as he begins organizing the things that were haphazardly shoved aside. |

"I get that you're set on this idea." Arendal interjects, "But why don't you set up a crystal array or something that automates the focus for you? You ought to be able to pull something like that off, given your ability and the skills that the res of us can lend you."
He motions particularly to himself and Zarik, then shrugs, saying, "We're not just handymen, y'know." |

"It should, bird brain." Aren snarks, "It's pretty similar to how we found Twem when we went there to parley with the dragons after saving you and Cai."
Turning his attention to Bel, he adds, "Though, to be fair. I don't remember mention of that either. Then again, you're not exactly keen to talk about your home to begin with." After a pause, he makes a quick rapping rhythm on the table, saying, "But yeah, how about drawing something up to act as a focus, Cai? Bel's right. You can't just keep this up. What would dad say if he finds out he outlived not only his best student, but the one whose lifespan is supposed to dwarf even his?" |

Without missing a beat, Aren interjects out of turn, "Why do I think we can do it? Because it's us." he beams proudly for a moment before continuing, "Besides, no one said anything about containing the energy. We just need to basically thread the flow through a crystal--"
He stops a moment at Caionna's ex "Bah! Whatever!" he grunts dismissively, "Anyway! Crystals that are attuned to what Cai does in her focus. Even if it still requires input from her, the burden would be dispersed. Even if slightly, which would be a step in the right direction." |

Aren looks over to Neris and Zarik and shakes his head, unsure what to make of the sudden regression.
Turning his attention to Bel, he notes, "I don't think attacking the dragons is going to get us anywhere. In fact, i think it may even be the worst move we could make. I'm not sure if you remember, Bel, but one of the terms Zarik agreed with them on was that both sides leave the other alone." |

Picking up where Zarik left off, Aren pipes in, "Surely you're aware of the power difference between metallic and chromatic dragons. The Dawn dragons are metals." With some hesitation, he adds, "I have a few theories, but I know Zarik doesn't want to give them the time of day, so I'll leave it there."
Clearing his throat, he continues, "Anyway, the dragons can help defend Twem by... you know... being there. And being significantly faster to act and make a measurable difference in battle. Unless you're talking about the military might of the harpies, themselves. It's not about them defending us. It's about them defending themselves." |

"Not exactly." Aren replies to Bel, "Aethertyes are beacons for magical travel on the life stream that require attunement and focus to teleport to. What Cai's alluding to is actually not entirely what we're aiming to do, but the concept is similar. The people of Norvrandt channeled energy from the wall of crystalized light from the border of The Empty and channeled it to the Crystal Tower to be sent across the gap between worlds from The First to The Source to be then channeled from Mor Dhona to the portal on Mare Lamentorum to redress the tipping toward darkness in The Thirteenth. She knows more about it, but she's told us at least that much." |
