[ycleption]

<//>This is a heavily edited log of an event that exists nowhere in Drexia's writing, as she thinks it highly unwise to commit such things to paper, but I want it to be in her CDT. I took liberties while editing, rearranging some dialog for drama and clarity, and cutting out large portions, both for dramatic purposes, and because this is Drexia's CDT:I want to highlight her role in this. I'm not trying to diminish others' contributions in this, just trying to focus on my own character. <///>

Githyanki Leader: *looks back to Drexia* *loudly, as if talking to someone else* Give it to this one.
*she smooths back her thick felted braids*
Drexia Faison: Me?
Githyanki Leader: You
Malor Lucredious: *laughs* yeah Drex Blow us up.
Krysthalien: **shrugs and hands drexia the box*
Drexia Faison: *takes the box*
Drexia Faison: Is there something I am supposed to do with it?
Clover : no better person to have it *smiiles* She is very wise
Githyanki Leader: *looks between Krys and Drexia for a moment* I don't know.
Krysthalien :**quietly regards the Gith inquisitively*
ithyanki Leader: I might be mistaken...but.. one of you two has the seed.
Krysthalien : 'n wot ye mean b'tha, miss?
Rrakkma Master: *she frowns darkly* I will be watching
Clarissa : The monks you mean?
Rrakkma Master: And I will be watching THAT *points to the device drexia holds*
Drexia Faison:**nods to the Rrakkma master* I would expect no less
Rrakkma Master: *she steps into the beam and disappears*
Malor Lucredious: Theres a diffrence between seed and psionics Clair
Krysthalien : Seed **looks back to the box, pondering*
Malor Lucredious: like a person could have the gift for magic but if they dont culture it it wont blossom into Magedom.
Clarissa : Yes please explain what you expect them to do?
Githyanki Leader: *shrugs* I was born with the ability, I've no idea how someone develops it. Besides, I'm a warrior, I don't focus on my power
Malor Lucredious: practice and focus i guess under the tutalidge of a psionicist.
Clarissa : Maybe try concentrating on the box like when you meditate
Drexia Faison: *frowns* I wouldn't want to activate the device accidentally...
Githyanki Leader: *shrugs* I don't think you could even if you tried. It requires quite a bit of focus. Activating anything, especially on that scale.
Drexia Faison:**nods* That is at least somewhat reassuring.
Githyanki Leader: I don't think it powers itself anyway. I'd guess it channels power
Krysthalien : **looks back to the cube for a moment then to the gith* if ye have an interest in accessin this, who amongst ye could test 'n train us?
Githyanki Leader: I still need to get back to my people... for now... I'm stranded here... And I'm certainly not asking THEM for help *gestures to where the Githzerai were*
Clarissa : What do you need to get back?
Githyanki Leader: I can go myself... I've just been weak
Clarissa : *nods*
Githyanki Leader: Well, try it.. *Gestures to Drexia* Try... something with it.
Drexia Faison: *closes her eyes and focuses*

She meditates, sending her mental energies through the cube, in the same way she

would send energy through her fist when she punches*

Coyote : You feel something! You've touched it!

Drexia Faison: *her breath catches for a split second*

Coyote : Everyone who rolled higher than 15 on their spellcraft (i.e. everyone who rollled) Feels the cube swell and pulse in the weave for a spilt second
Kalin Sundar: *grins*
Malor Lucredious: *watches the cube* Keep going.
Clover : Hmmmm interesting
Kalin Sundar: Keep trying
Krysthalien : **looks to drexia concerned but keeps quiet*

*Drexia mentally prods the cube, very cautiously, increasing little by little

Coyote : *the cube's ripple against the weave grows steady and small... very very small ripples outward*
Coyote : Suddenly the cube flashes blindingly to those who are watching it intently through the weave or ki, those who can't see it except with their eyes are unaffected.

*Swirly lights and fog; Illithid and unber hulks and things appear from all around. After some fighting, they are killed or driven back from where they came.

The swirliness dissipates. Then, blue light shines down, and a particularly menacing illithid steps out.

Tialle Dianesis: Uhm.. *she takes a few steps away from the light*

The Inhabitor: *a voice booms out inside your heads... it is accutely uncomfortable* Give it to me.

Drexia Faison: *stands up straight* No.
The Inhabitor: *faces straight at Drexia* Give it to me.
Drexia Faison: I will not make bargains with you.
Kalin Sundar: *scoffs*
Nyeaeana Irylanam:yah right
Githyanki Leader: Why are we even listening!
Malor Lucredious: Leave or face the fate of your breatheren *points to the litter of dead*
Clover: You're about to bite off more than you can chew, cur.
*with that, they charge the creature, and despite the psionic attacks, they manage to dispatch their foe.

Githyanki Leader: *Frowns*
Tialle Dianesis: It's gone.. now worries, right?
Clarissa :Portals closed anyway it seems.
Githyanki Leader: Be careful with that... *points to drexia*
Drexia Faison: **shakes head* clearly they are aware of this cube now.... and clearly it is no toy.
Githyanki Leader: Lets move. They know we WERE here
Drexia Faison: **nods*
Githyanki Leader: And as long as we're still here... they know where we are.

*they move away, to a safe location.

Clarissa : Is the box still on or whatever?
Githyanki Leader: Didn't you hear the scream? Thats what they heard, and why they
came. They may have other ways to find you.. now that they know who has it... But as long as it doesn't let off that... flash again, They won't be able to find it so easily.
Drexia Faison: I assure you, I won't be randomly expiramenting with this.
Githyanki Leader: I'm going to return to my people. I have some questions that demand answers. You *turns to Drexia* Keep it secret. Keep it safe. I'll be back.
Drexia Faison: **nods solemnly* I will.
Malor Lucredious: Its up to Drexia to find out how to use the box
