Guess who's back? [Open] [Probable Shadowbringers spoilers]

Video
[Certain persons in the cities will recognize, if not the individual, then at least the race of the person who's just popped onto the network. To the one or two likely to remember her, she looks... rather a lot more world-weary and worn down. Kind of sickly, to be honest. Still, she offers a wry smile to the camera.]

Have to say, I didn't expect to be summoned back here again. Thought I might be done with that for a while, after the Exarch did his thing. [No, she's not going to say his name here. He asked that she call him the Exarch, and so she shall.] That aside, if memory serves, I'm going to need a job. And directions - this key doesn't look like the one I got last time, which suggests that the Commons aren't the default rooming arrangement anymore.

Action
[It's easy to get lost in a city that's built for people at least double your height. Especially when you're having a little trouble with your vision, and your hearing, and... really all your senses. And what feels like the world's biggest migraine.

Is it any wonder, then, that she's ducked into a cafe to wait out the brighter part of the day? Odd that the sky outside is unaffected, but then, Genessia has always been resilient against the afflictions of its residents.

Sipping a cold drink - looks like iced tea, from here - and applying a bag of that same ice to the side of her head, she might be easily mistaken for a lost and confused child...]

[It's a sign of respect that he refrains from the usual warnings he'd give about the Subarchways; that they're fake, not to let one's sentiments spoil and turn perverse, etc. Aes, thank goodness, seemed to understand all that and, for once, treat them the only appropriate way: as a means to an end. So he's visibly relaxed when he responds.]

All right. Glad my pamphlet-reading is of use. Call me when you're ready.

[He gave a small, reassuring smile.]

Until then, go under the Mercy.
