The Witch's second task.

When you sleep like the dead, it takes a while to wake up.

To say the least, I am out of practice on this..... As I recall I returned to the campus without much of an issue despite how late it was, brought the requested items and was told I'd done a decent enough job and sent on my way. It was.. I think a week later when Patches called for me again.

John had gone missing... as in completely missing, from campus and from her ability to scry him. So this job was to go where his energy was last sensed and see if I could ferret things out where she'd failed. Patches suggested that I see if I could convince Sul to assist me since Patches was bound to the school.. for some reason.


Ultimately it took a bit of convincing as Sul is wary of anyone and anything that hasn't actually been seen, and Patches is someone that hasn't been seen, ultimately it was an appear to the curiosity of things unknown that brought the D'jinn along. And so, it brought us to the school arboretum on a mostly foggy, and mostly moonlit night. One of those weird nights where the moon is mostly full, but you can also see most of the stars. And then we stumbled through a rift in space into an even larger garden.
