Chapter 2 Part A: Eyefulls

What greeted Leshac first was Quil, who had taken to wearing thick fur dresses, usually laden with enchantments against cold. She had after past experiences become quite paranoid about having protections against the cold. Actually she even had on her bluey-black chitinous limbs four coppery bangles with glowing orange script on them. She had put serious work into the enchantment, singing in what was basically a furnace.

Her wings were as they had been since she was a child, patterned such that they looked like a pair of blue eyes. Her own green eyes peeked out worriedly at Leshac from beneath her long blue hair.

However while Leshac had of recent times gotten quite preoccupied with paying attention to Quil, what snatched his attention was the large floating eye behind her.

It was roughly the size of a regular humanoid’s head, so it was quite a sight to a person in the form of a pixie or who was a pixie.

The iris of the eye was a gleaming bone white and the pupil a dark pit.

“The messenger I assume” Leshac observed.

Somehow, Leshac couldn’t help feeling that the Magus of Eyes was a really lazy person. Sure it was befitting Liokh Balreah’s aspect to just send a floating eye, but a floating eye was… well it was just an eyeball. Not exactly the most complex or elaborate of things.

“Naturally” Quil replied dryly.

-PLEASE CLOSE YOUR EYES- The eye sent in a dull tone.

Leshac looked at Quil, however she merely shrugged. Having been Balreah’s apprentice she didn’t actually have much experience of what messengers Balreah liked to use or what they did. In particular he had been very fond of summoning Quil into his palm. That wasn’t something she missed, not in the least.

They closed their eyes.

“You can open them now” Liohk Balreah Magus of Eyes said.
