Who: Gale & various. Status: Closed Where: Various. What: Quests and other various closed threads for the month! Warnings: PG? Necromancy, discussion of magical ethics... rated E for Educational, maybe.
[Gale politely lets the negotiation take place without interruption, easily resuming their conversation once the shopkeep disappears to tend to business.]
I suppose that's fair. Magic here is a touch different from how I initially learned it back in Faerun, but not by much— only in how it manifests, on occasion. Largely, it remains a process of attuning oneself to magic itself as a force of nature, and guiding it to make intent become reality. Though the man in question seeks to use alchemy, they are often close cousins.
[He's certainly brewed more than his share of potions and draughts.]
Your vision is limited to a single element, if I recall? As such, I expect much of its impact would be external, but magic— especially dark magic— uses the caster themselves as a conduit. That, I'm afraid, makes this man's potential efforts especially dangerous.
We cannot, in good conscience, allow that to happen. Not when we have this much warning and an opportunity to intervene. We may save him a great deal of heartache— and quite possibly his life, among others'.
[Kaveh is right; this gentleman needs a talking to.]

walks in a month late with starbucks
[He can willingly hand it over but that's different.
Still, Gale's explanation makes him frown. From the sounds of it...]
So he's likely to hurt himself, if not others, if this goes wrong...and if this goes how he hopes?
welcome to my permanent state of being in 2024 honestly (hello ilu!)
[He frowns deeply, giving a shake of his head.]
