There is nothing quite like seeing the new life emerge after a long winter. A swamp is not the same--beautiful it may be in its own way, but I can't say I appreciate the smells it brings with it with as much enjoyment as others.

[There's a short pause, as she teases the little cub and plays for a moment, chuckling softly, until a thought strikes.]

Oh, who tends to the garden here? I'd like to lend a hand with it, if you don't mind. It seems to be in need of a bit of care.

Getting stuck here, I  can't help but wonder what's going on back where I'm from. The world's about to get shaken, and it's forever on hold for me until this castle lets me go.

Ah well. It's not like I won't get back eventually. Hopefully my skills won't be rusty by then. This place can certainly be dangerous if it wants to be, but it's a tame sea when compared to the Grand Line.

SO! Shall we?

[now that the swampland is draining, and he's not seeing any more giant creatures outside his window, Raistlin is leaving the dark, familiar confines of the library, and heading out across the castle grounds, to explore and search for spell components. his journal now hangs off one of his belts, by a carefully crafted leather thong, along with a spellbook from the library, ready for easy access should he need it.

he's making his way through one of the side lawns, using the Staff of Magius to navigate through the tall grass and feel out any wet, weak spots where his feet might sink through, when --]

Murk.

[peers around, looking for the source of the sound --]

Murk! [and a Murkrow flies up out of the grass, swiping past his waist and making a grab for one of the amulets hanging from his belt. it misses, and lands a few feet away, hopping as though it intends to make another pass for it]

... Hmmm. [he reaches up and unfastens the amulet, dangling it before him in his free hand] Does this interest you, little one?

Murk, murk!

He's just leaning against the wall outside a door, arms crossed, looking relaxed, staff resting next to him. Picture of perfect innocence, right? ... Sure. Keep believing that.

The door beside him is a pretty damn average door. Looks like it might be an unoccupied room, and all seems fairly normal... Save for the slightest hint of flickering light coming from under it. Not that Xellos seems to be noticing it.

There is a sign on the door though, tacked on there for all to see. And it says:
