[Jeffron paces about the other sepulchre, with the armor, staring at Jote and writing]
I have met my minion, Jote, and tendered to him the sum of near two thousand fangs. He accepted this as payment.
He revealed to me an artifact, a ring that expands upon the mind. I will amass five thousand fang to pay him with, for a set of two rings. I will probably need several trips to the spider warrens on the mountain to collect so many coins.
Jote is offering to be an informant to me. Apparently, he has mages following him. He is being accosted by a magus's familiar, a raven. He wants me to put a stop to it. He offers a ring to me in exchange. Jote is asking me about Saoire, and if I am done with her. I think he may want me to stop. He has offered a lore ring in exchange for her freedom. I have said no. Furthermore, he wishes Saoire for a mate. I said he may, under the condition that he remain emotionally detached, and that the experiment would continue full force. When I mentioned the latter he [scribbles taint the page, Jeffron shudders in surprise] Something... strange has occured. An Ancient Dead entered the sepulchre, and demanded that Jote leave. I expelled him, and it told me it was Sekupah, servant of the Lord Azerdran. I remember Kheserthorpe mentioning him. I will meet them at the Balinok cave.
[Jeffron runs to the cave, unseen. As he runs, calming, he writes as well,]
Jote seems to wish the Experiment to end on Saoire. More on that, later.
[Jeffron enters the cave in the mountains, Sekupah greets him]
I am meeting Azerdran soon.
Azerdran just arrived. From what I can tell, he is an undead eye tyrant. He claims I was a member of a family, whose home was destroyed. The family, I assume, is a family of undead. Azerdran offered me a place in the Family. I am asking him about my current experiments and such. Apparently, as long as I don't betray this, "Family", I can continue along with my plans. I will join. A sister member of the Family will be arriving shortly. Or not... Azerdran will tell me later.
