[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[Selina Parcellus]

Betimi merely silently nods at Selina. She has a distinct feeling of dread.

She whispers back to Selina in Common
"I don't think we want to share our findings with anyone but Simon. I am also not sure we want to open a portal to your world, what if our returning to your home gives this Cacoptic Stain access to your world?"

"Betimi, we will have to travel to another plane altogether.  We cannot risk going to yours either.  Besides the inherent dangers you have hinted at, if there is even the slightest chance these...Daelkyr, yes?...if there is any chance of either they subverting or being subverted by the Stain, we must avoid that at all costs.  Who knows what horrors that would cause??  I only pray that we are wrong and we do not corrupt our next place of travel."
