Firmament

Hey, hold up one sec. I don't mean to be rude Rainboa, or One-of-Many, or... whoever all I'm talking with right now? But could you guys please work on being more... coherent again? Half the time your words are all wrong, and it's kinda mucking up my head. Or... like, it felt like we were having a bonding moment for a second there, and... well, I'm sure you're doing your best as a memory-ghost hivemind or whatever, but... can we work on it?

oof. sorry Cassie. some pieces of Rainboa whole enough for speech, others not so much.
Like me! ow ow ow...
ahem. right. One-of-... Rainboa will find better sorting means. Maybe coherent-speech hurt less, is easier with practice and wholeness?

So... uh... if I've got this straight, you do want to form a Contract. You're... saying you think my Mana Gate's broken, and not letting me channel my energy, right? And you think you can fix that, or work around it, or something? And in exchange, you want me to agree to... find you some valuables, basically? Like, metal and jewelry, or whatever?

Ehhhh. Not quite. Not need be valuable, just soil, rock, crystal, gem, or metal. Things-of-earth.
Even beings near enough for Rainboa to reach will do if pull strong enough.
Rainboa not understand why want sense earth, but very good feeling about this!

First of all... are you the memory-ghost of a Dragon or something? Because this sounds like some Dragon-tier shit right here. Secondly, if you really think there's a problem and you can fix it... well, maybe? I mean... I'll think about it.

I beg pardon?
Dragon?

Dragon?Show

DRAGON?
Loathsome slaves of wealth, jewel-grubbing knowledge-hoarding oversized vessels of avarice!
No understanding of the value of earth, discarding the earth that matters while proudly displaying the shiniest bauble of their misbegotten gains!
Tearing apart the lives of others for what, to add another ten inches to the pile? Fie! Fie I say to those draconic fools and their incessant folly!
Lacking the decency to respect the needs of others, demanding others suffer indignities that the scaled fiend might fill a vault with gold, ne'er to be spent!
Were I still alive, I woul-
I woul-
I...

...Sorry, seem to have blanked. Dislodged memory-of-anger.
No, not memory-ghost of dragon. Too much greed. Too much blind avarice.
Rainboa, this aspect thereof, not memory-ghost of dragon. Would be bad joke.
...
Am not remembering much more, but can feel pull to earth stronger.
Bad, good, memory is memory. Jagged, though. Is memory really mine?...
Perhaps is best not remembering what would make anger fit.
Strong reaction for not knowing much of dragon though. Fluke?
More words might bring more memory-snippets. Wouldn't count on it though.
Gah, new memory pull-apart put-together strange. Rainboa Sleep for real soon. Re-configure. Reach understanding.

What's it gonna be, buddy?

Quiet corner, but don't tell more. Some of Rainboa could handle, others, not so much.
Will attempt sleep now, let rested pieces of Rainboa handle talk. Will leave one last thought first though.
As prosthesis of soul, Rainboa should be able to fullfill role of missing piece.
If Rainboa has magic to give Cassie, then Rainboa can give magic.
Now, as prosthesis of soul would think ineligible for familiar...
But if enough Rainboa broke off, say, a soul restored and seperated from Rainboa; then that could serve.
Am assuming though, yes. Could be wrong on familiar workings. Could be breaking new ground!
hrrrm. Oh, Idea. Cassie, you know magic. And am guessing library may have book on magic.
So... Help keep Rainboa mind off Cafe with magic-lesson?
