[Aniki doesn’t so much appear as, well, fall from the Astral sky in a cascade of water. She hits the ground with a grunt and starts coughing; she’s soaked through and tied up from top to toe, a bit bruised, and definitely not happy with the situation.]

Sarden piss-swilling… Hello? Someone mind helping a lass?

[Winces as each rope pops free.] Port Caynn rushers. The meeting went a bit sour.

Damn. They catch you right after the meeting?

Mmm. No. Couldn't sleep. Probably not the best idea to go for a walk on my own.

I can think of much smarter things you could have done. Do you have any serious injuries?

Exactly how badly did things go at the meeting?

Would have been fine if they hadn't snatched a doxie that was working close by. [She sits cross-legged and wriggles a finger in her ear.] Oh, not as bad as it could have been.

Doxie? I don't know that word, sorry.

It still must have been pretty bad if you had people after you. Do you think they were acting alone, or were they sent?

Mmm, prostitute. Don't want to guess until I have one of them to pound. Could be they recognized me and thought it'd be pat on the back from their Rogue for dousing one of the new Rogue's rushers.

They grabbed a hostage. [Angry in his voice now. He doesn't like those who use tricks like that]

Let hope it is just people trying to gain favor. Will you be all right when you go back?

Should be. I'll let the river carry me a bit, then circle around and give them a bit of a surprise.

Good luck. I hope you make them regret coming after you.

Oh, they will, my lad.

[Grin] I almost wish I could be there to see it.

Can't you be?

We can't get to other people's realities that easily.

How so?

You just can't reach others worlds. Our worlds are overlap so we can see each other outside the Plane but while I might see us standing in the middle of a busy square in my world and you might see it as in a deserted courtyard. We can't actually see each others worlds.

[Frownyface.] Well that's a mite unsettling.

And the rest of this place isn't unsettling at all?

World can merge together but I think that has to do with how close you are to someone.

Mm. Don't much like the sound of that, either.

[Quiet chuckle.] Oh, it is, but in a way I know well enough. Magecraft and gods and and all. Seeing someone dressed as odd as you, wandering my streets? Well, that's unsettling.
