Home, maybe. Some version of it. Perhaps somewhere else. The possibilities would be limitless.

[magicalarchaeologist]

I've been researching trying to find a way to anchor people who want to stay to the Singularity, to this sphere. It's possible finding it could also have an answer for a counterspell.

[techmaturgy]

Yes, theoretically it should work both ways. Those who want to stay, can, and those who don't can leave.

[magicalarchaeologist]

That is the hope. Then again, I wonder if that hope is why the Singularity speaks to others but never to me.

[techmaturgy]

It doesn't speak to me. But I haven't exactly reached out to it, either.

[magicalarchaeologist]

How do you expect to learn the nature of our connection to the Singularity without understanding the Singularity itself better?

[techmaturgy]

I admit I have always approached magic from a technological angle, having no inherent ability of my own. Thorne obviously did not devise the Summoning ritual with the connection to the Singularity that we have. I believe it can be done—and I do not trust the Singularity not to interfere, in its own way, should I reach out to it.

[magicalarchaeologist]

Hm, I suppose that is where we are opposites, as I know nothing of technology and a great deal about magic. The spell is magic and as far as I can imagine, technology would not be able to supersede it here. Unless there is a way for technology to teleport people to other realms safely.

[techmaturgy]

Technology alone, no. But technology and magic working together…can accomplish so much more.

[Like, you know, finally breaking through Castle Thorne’s wards.]

It’s what I’ve spent my career studying.

[magicalarchaeologist]

If you get anywhere in your research, would you let me know?

[techmaturgy]

Yes, certainly. Provided you're out of jail soon.

[magicalarchaeologist]

If we're not executed, yes. I'll do the same if anything changes on my end.
