I couldn't find if anyone had tried this yet so for Kelesis proper (and not the hell pit): Syrlya would like to spend a bit of time really focusing on the weird instability of the city and its people by specifically looking for any signs of it being a magically-induced illusion of sorts, since he's a spectral type that already specialized in illusions. Aside from the terrible headaches what does a bit of magically and metaphorically poking around at oddities, does he notice anything? | The first thing Syrlya would receive for his trouble is: more headaches. But if he persisted at this, he would begin to attract the attention of local Kelesians. Possibly because they noticed that he was in some sort of pain- but it's also just as likely that they're suddenly eager to talk to him about something. Maybe they're eager for him to visit their shop, or have a sample of what their stall is selling. Maybe they're looking for someone, and ask if he's seen anyone of their description. It's all very distracting. It is unnaturally distracting, at that, as these good-natured encounters encouraging Syrlya to partake in the world around him will make it exceedingly difficult to remember just what he was trying to do before. This in itself is something to notice, the uncanny timing and unlikely distractability, but catching on to it and fighting to view past it will earn him a brief flash of absolute dread and grief- before being forced into unconsciousness. On waking up, he will be outside Kelesian borders, and will not be allowed inside the city for a week. Any attempts after that, will lead to even swifter evictions from the city. |
