[aberratic]

FORM: Crystal
SENDER: Ness Tavane (aberratic, on behalf of The Forgotten (Julius, Bastien, Clarisse, Viktor (and Isaac)))
RECIPIENT: Everyone
NOTES: Player plot info! Basically: As far as everyone in the Gallows is concerned, the people Ness is talking about just straight up do not exist and never have.

[ the voice that comes over the crystal is a soft, somewhat frazzled soprano. other voices can be heard arguing behind her, but only the tones of frustration and suspicion are audible; the content of the discussion is indistinct. ]

Good afternoon, Riftwatch, this is Quartermaster Ennaris Tavane. We—that is, myself, the Seneschal, Griffon Keeper La Rue, and Messeres Bastien and Viktor, we are being barred from use of the ferry to re-enter the Gallows. Is there anyone available to vouch for us, please? We're all very tired from our return journey and have quite a lot of work to get back to.

Suppose Jason's an authority.

Thanks. Do we have one? A Sebastian. [ A half-second afterthought: ] No offense if you're out there, Sebastian.

Went down with Starkhaven. Maybe it's his ghost.

[ Dryly: ] Ha ha. Right, a ferry for ghosts.

Been some places they put a gold piece under the tongue of anyone who dies. That way they can pay to cross the Fade. Gotta get to it before the pyre, though.

[ obviously. so the money doesn't melt. ]
