[ good guess he is in fact in the nerd place for nerds. he is reading this. ]

Ah, Karlach. Well, funny you should ask, this actually showed up for me this morning. So, personal reading material as it were.

As a matter of fact, it appears to be the journal of the wizard Karsus himself.

[ so.




that's a thing.

[ pulling it back over. ]

And what exactly is the problem ... ? It isn't cursed, there is nothing within that can cause me harm. If anything, there's a rather interesting set of notes I've translated so far about a spell I think I could finish.

[ he just think she's mixing it up with some other book now like the Necromancy of Thay. ]

Don't worry, don't worry, I have it under control ... Oh. War showed me a spell too.

[ just weird wizard shit. ]

Ah, it's actually very interesting - something known as Dunamis, which is a school of magic I have not heard of before. But the spell is of his own make, it seems. The premise is this: you pull forth an echo-copy of yourself from a timeline not taken, and using that energy before it rots away from the possibility of your current reality, it is able to cast a spell.

A contingency, of sorts.

[ looking at her carefully because he assumes there is something happening with the engine and she is not saying, but. fine.

closing the book and pulling it back over towards himself, stacking his journal on top and flipping through some of the pages.
]

... No. Not exactly, but I have a few avenues to explore still.

Through what means, exactly?

... You found your partner.

[ he is not even going to address the wish part yet, becaue brrrrrrrrrrr. ]
alldoomnogloom: (G61)

[personal profile] alldoomnogloom 2024-07-02 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
From my understanding, the wish can only be extended so far. There are limitations, and likely ...

[ he looks concerned, but ... if she doesn't seem too upset, she doesn't seem too upset. he'll give her a long look, and then go back to flipping through his notebook. ]

The way to help us is to help yourself, Karlach. Please use the wish on your heart. There is no part of me that wishes to take that from you.

It is your wish, so therefore, it should be for you.

[ he's going to be stubborn about this. ]

Ah, I did speak to him about the heart solution. It certainly seems interesting-- though complex. A bit of a cups game of memory and body, but nothing more distressing than say, a Clone spell.
