First Stone

[thesilenthero]

[Cambot's feed picks up a familiar figure in a rather unfamiliar outfit. Aeleus nods to Cambot and speaks directly to him.]

I seem to have found myself back here again. It is...good to see all of you again, though I don't appreciate the suddenness of my translocation. Now that several events have occurred, I would prefer to be known as Aeleus.

[Aeleus sighs and rubs at his temple.]

Did Ienzo leave during my absence? I apologize for not announcing my return immediately, but I meant to go to him and make amends for my abrupt departure, only to find him missing.

What...? [You're not just pulling his leg, are you?]

[thesilenthero]

Myself and some of the others found ourselves human again. Lea set out to look for you.

[beforethemoon]

So...you mean...everything turns out okay?

[thesilenthero]

[Aeleus is silent for a long moment.]

It seems that way, but I think we still have some ways to go.

[beforethemoon]

Still... that's better than nothing, right?

[thesilenthero]

It is. It seems I'm not the only one who was displaced for some time.

[beforethemoon]

What do you mean?
