(Another letter for Isla arrives, only hours after the first. It bears the essence of the ‘listen listen listen’ gif, if Wessex’s writing could ever have more than a functional tone)
Isla,
Amun said he told you about the Stormbreak relic and all I have to say is I know it sounds like a terrible idea but hear me out on this:
The Knowtbook's told me Remi, Ronin, and Deimos are headed to the Maw. I can only imagine that means one thing: a Relic. If there's something down there, I don't see how we can get it - I don't have any sea shifts and we aren't ready to engage with that trio. It’s lost. And assuming that they get it, it’ll put the score at 4:1. We’re losing that race. Badly.
Amun is going to the Voice and even if he can’t find out anything more specific, we should go to Stormbreak. Our presence doesn’t break a ceasefire because we never explicitly stated any terms… did we? We could easily disguise ourselves. Well, Amun can with an upgrade and you could drink from me, use my magic. Or I could summon a kitsune to disguise you. Or you could be yourself, with a Dragoon escort (that’s me and Loki).
If I were going to hide a relic in Stormbreak, even from the Order, I’d hide it somewhere deep and dark. Perhaps where all the Gods can keep an eye on it - in the Temple? Or buried with someone?
I’m trying to pick the battles as best I can. This would be a huge risk, but given our recent losses, we shouldn't sit idly by and let this one go. And we have to go sooner, rather than later, because they’re working on something to kill any Ascended who tries to enter Stormbreak.
Let me know your thoughts. You should be a part of this decision. I'm sorry you weren't a part of the last one. I'm learning.
Yours,
Isla,
