❀ First Bloom ❀

[All those who have been given magic mirrors will now see them flash to life, the face of a lovely woman adorning the reflective surface. She looks perplexed and curious, like a person trying to solve a puzzle.]

I wonder how you know it's working. Hm.

Hello? Is the mirror broadcasting? If you can hear this, it'd probably be best if we got acquainted, don't you think? It seems as if we'll be seeing a lot of each other. Why don't we get started here? These mirrors- if they work- could be rather influential.

[Had been studying hers as well when it suddenly came to life]

Well that answers several of my questions. I can see you Robin, are you able to see or hear me?

[thetruehistorian]

[Robin's own reflection becomes an image of Polgara. It's uncanny, but it means it's working.]

Indeed!

How odd. [She giggles.] Honestly I expected to have been talking to myself. What a pleasant surprise. I suppose we can mark that claim down as one confirmed, can't we?

[sorceress_polgara]

It seems similar to Beldaran's amulet. Though that was only able to pick up or send voices.

[thetruehistorian]

Perhaps a bit of your world's magic was brought here to make these mirrors possible. That is one of the other claims, is it not? That not just people, but other places and things from other worlds have been brought as well?

[sorceress_polgara]

It's possible I suppose... but if that were the case why would it work within the gods' protection in the camp?

No, I think this must be of this world not mine. I'll have to take it out of the camp to properly study it.

I wonder if the merchant has a traveling bag that will fit it... One that will muffle any sounds from it.

[thetruehistorian]

That seems like a sound logic. I'm sure if there isn't one readily available they'll be able to come up with something to your specifications. And maybe wrap the mirror in cloth? That would help keep it from shattering as well.

[sorceress_polgara]

The right materials and a sewing kit and I can make my own. Perhaps you can help me test it. I want to be sure that it's not picking up anything I don't want it to hear.

[thetruehistorian]

Of course... but my help this time will come with a price.
