Hi, what can I help you with?

That sounds entirely too much like making a bargain with it. [ viveca sighs; it's easy to be tricked into one, especially with the last remaining orbs. it's hardly ziggy's fault that it happened. ]

Did you bind it directly into coming here? What was your wording, exactly? Or its wording? What did it agree to do?

[shadysided]

I mean... I don't know! But I thought we were already neck-deep in bargains. What's one more?

[Pushing her hair back, she attempts to recall it more clearly.]

It asked — if we'd take it from there. Take it somewhere where it can be more... complete? Strong? I told it we could reunite it with the other orbs, as long as it'd just leave the town alone. I didn't mention the Ximilia, but...

[vivecai]

Oh.

[ if that was how she phrased it — then, she has an idea. unfortunately. ]

If you didn't specify it having to come with you — and only said you'd make it stronger... it may have moved on to the final world. Without you, yet. The orbs do that, twist words to mean what they want them to mean.
