Once the rain stopped, they traveled until reaching the edge of a bustling village. Red-haired witches cooked & brewed, flew & laughed. Aurelia and Alexan peeked through the foliage in awe at the impossible sights.
Flashing a gleaming shell, Q'inde murmured a spell to summon one. A swirl of flame & leaves delivered a colourfully dressed woman with bright teal eyes.
Maxim suddenly bristled. "Not her! Really?!"
Those eyes trained on him at once, and she smiled. "Maxim. It's been a while."
His wings brushed the plants as he partially turned away. "Hmph. Siobhan."
Pushing Alexan forward, Q'inde gestured to the necklace and said, "You know more of amulets, Madame Aire."
She looked the human up & down, smiling enigmatically. "Well, right to business then. Begging your pardon~" Reaching out a ring-laden hand, she cast a spell circle over the jewel.
Her amused grin melted away quickly. "Q'inde? Where is this from?"
The entire party shifted in tension. "Why? Can't you tell?"
She shook her head. "No. Magic is all I know. And... I've never seen anything like this."
