Radley rarely posts, even though he comments a lot to others. When the video comes on, he looks badly shaken and worried.

"I came out this morning and the place was like a ghost town!" he exclaims. "What's going on?! Did almost everyone get sent back at once?!"

And why would he be left behind? He looks frightened, even terrified by the thought. When he speaks again, his voice is quieter but wobbly.

"Please ... someone answer...."

No. I was not here for it the last time, and apparently we can't be led back to it when it isn't happening.

[crystalmaster]

Well, that’s just like them. Ugh. What would happen if I went looking for them? I’d just get caught too?

[stitch_witch]

Truly I do not know. But if you go, I can try and help some.

Actually... I could make a map.

[crystalmaster]

Thanks. That would be great.

[stitch_witch]

It will take me a while to weave it. I don't suppose there is some food I can get to keep me energized?

[crystalmaster]

Sure! Is there anything specific you'd like?

[stitch_witch]

Something easy and high energy. I don't suppose you have some porridge already started?

[crystalmaster]

No, but it won't take long to start it!

[stitch_witch]

Alright then. I can come and help if you wish.

[crystalmaster]

Sure, I'd be happy for the company.

[stitch_witch]

Wonderful. I'll gather the spools I need and tools to set up a frame.

[crystalmaster]

Great! Thanks.

Any particular ingredients you'd like for the porridge?

[stitch_witch]

Nothing in particular. I'd just like some honey to put in it.

[crystalmaster]

Will do!

[Radley starts looking around for something else good to put in. Maybe some fruit on top....]

[stitch_witch]

[And it takes a while, but Lark does arrive, with a wooden frame and with spools of thread.]

Radley?

[crystalmaster]

[Radley comes out of the kitchen.]

Hey! You're just in time; it's about ready.

[stitch_witch]

Good to hear. Thank you for this.

[She sits down and starts to set up the loom.]

You're not uncomfortable with magic, are you?

[crystalmaster]

Sure.

[Radley pauses, considering.]

Uh ... well, I'm not uncomfortable with your magic. Yours is nice.

[stitch_witch]

That is very nice to hear. What I'll do is spin this, and then flood it with magic. It will take on color then, showing us where the persons whose thread I'm using are.

[She had selected a few of those who had voluntarily given her thread, ones that she would have an easier time gathering new spools for.]

[crystalmaster]

... That's really useful. It sounds like a magical GPS.

[stitch_witch]

I'm not sure what GPS is, but I won't argue. It just takes a bit of energy.

[crystalmaster]

It does pretty much the same thing as this, but with tech.

[He is really impressed magic can do it too.]

[stitch_witch]

Well, we'll see if it's as effective. I haven't tried it here on Agra-10 yet.

[Except when they were in an illusion.]

[crystalmaster]

... Oh.

[He hopes the Agrii won't block the attempt.]

Should I bring the food?

[stitch_witch]

Yes please.

[The Agrii haven't blocked her from it before.]
