Ora glanced at her father. "That I can do." Her smile twitched slightly, "but the no heroics bit might be somewhat difficult." She settled her arm against her side, relaxing some now that Toli was accounted for. "You should know, what it is we're doing, though. Just as Haldis could live connected with a person, somewhat like a parasite to it's host, there is another creation from the same origin. It's like Haldis, but different. For one, it has not developed a mind of its own, nor can it, as it serves a drastically different role. To put it simply Haldis is a collector, the other is more of a storage unit. If Haldis comes in contact with it, she will be wiped clean." Ora's voice was quiet, to keep the Jishara refugees from hearing. "If you hadn't guessed, Toli is the current host of the storage device. She has been for two years."

Eulalia Danae Ora glanced at her father. "That I can do." Her smile twitched slightly, "but the no heroics bit might be somewhat difficult." She settled her arm against her side, relaxing some now that Toli was accounted for. "You should know, what it is we're doing, though.

She has been for two years." "Your heroics will result in the Kore being able to kill the girl. THey will not be heroics at all, if that helps you stay to the plan," Having said his bit, he allowed Ora's words to sink in, "Then keep me informed. Perhaps one of your moths, to allow for magical communication as opposed to electrical. Let me know where you are, and after I get to Haldis, I will fetch you and the girl, and return to Haldis."

"You aren't even clear what my heroics would be." Ora said, her red eyes sharp. She glanced away, a small moth forming and settling onto Xeen's shoulder. "It will keep us in touch."

Eulalia Danae "You aren't even clear what my heroics would be." Ora said, her red eyes sharp. She glanced away, a small moth forming and settling onto Xeen's shoulder. "It will keep us in touch." Xeen returned Ora's sharp look, crossing his arms. "Oralia, I am fully aware of what your unique brand of anything entails. Stay to the plan. It is is fragile enough, I do not need unneeded risks being taken. Can you do this for me?"

Ora met his eyes, her own cold and sharp despite the drugs in her system. "I never take risks that are unneeded. Relax, I've been doing this sort of thing for six hundred years now...and recently spent a hundred years with this very event occupying my mind. "

Ora took a small breath, blinking her eyes clear of the drugs. "You have to be wary of who you trust. Haldis can seep into people's minds, they have to invite her in so to speak, but most people don't know to keep the door shut when someone knocks, metaphorically speaking. She will also likely know that you are coming. She may try to use you to find and destroy us, so be wary of how easy things may go."

Keep moving. Take your mother with you. Do not tell me where you are going."

Ora nodded, sitting up in the hospital bed despite the many protests from the nurses. "Good luck to you," she said, glancing to Xeen.

"I will need time to find Haldis. In that time, you and your mother and Toli should get as far away from this planet as possible. Never land, do not stop moving."

Das Steube Eulalia Danae Ora nodded, sitting up in the hospital bed despite the many protests from the nurses. "Good luck to you," she said, glancing to Xeen. Xeen returned the nod. "I will need time to find Haldis. In that time, you and your mother and Toli should get as far away from this planet as possible. Never land, do not stop moving." Ora nodded, and closed her eyes a moment, before biting her lip and pushing herself off of the hospital cot, the drugs and brief rest had helped quite a bit. Her left arm was still all of useless, but she ignored that. "You should get going, and quickly, Haldis will know soon, if not already, that we have the girl." Ora walked over to Toli, whispered something in the girl's ear, and motioned for the girl to walk with her. Within a few minutes Ora had found herself in the settlement's HQ, using the communication system to send a wave to Eric Chase.

Soon, Eric was exiting the jump in high orbit, making his way low, paging Ora again.
"It's Eric. I'm here."
