"...I should speak to Emet-Selch as well." This isn't a slight toward Lahabrea. In fact, he continues to address the Speaker, eyes open, and keenly invested in what was just said. Yes, to think the Umbral and Astral is simply not present... "I can't see how a world whose peoples are so affected by the waning and waxing of the moons is utterly void of either. To the point wherein the polarities are reversed in Witches native and Mirrorbound." It may not be stable and that certainly troubles him. A world out of balance in Light or Dark is a very dangerous world to be part of or trapped on. But trust the Emissary to be concerned about this, as it was his job to be.

"The lack of potency in restorative spells would certainly suggest--" What Elidibus was about to say is suddenly cut off by lurching vertigo which strikes through the Bond. He has some familiarity with nausea, thanks to a certain recent bout of drinks he has no intention of bringing up... ever. This wasn't quite the same, but it is enough to thoroughly snap the Emissary temporarily out of any conversation he was about to have on the subject of the rushed feeling.

He wouldn't have been able to give much of an answer anyway, toward the notion of how long it had been.

Elidibus falls quiet as matters stabilize and Lahabrea continues only the slightest sense that something had occurred. There is something not... right in the manner in which the Speaker forcibly controls the wrath. Back home, it might have been commendable. Here, less so. Yet by that same wrath and emotion, broaching the topic is likewise a hazardous endeavor. As has been amply demonstrated.

Elidibus rises and finally touches on the second subject without really finishing the first. "It may be the inexperience of living at a mortal's pace has invoked an impetus to meet their speed." All the more reason to be glad he'll have the luxury of a house with only a fellow Ascian to rest his body in. Slow down, study it all. But to not leave the matter of Lahabrea's transformation behind...

Ah. Perhaps that is it.

"Will you permit me to come closer, Lahabrea?" Elidibus may not know where, but he doesn't doubt the dragon, aside from the matters of precaution, has hidden his horde somewhere in that cage. His hands are empty but one is held up, indicating an offer of contact. It.... has become a little easier to make such gestures, in the past couple of weeks.
