Ideas were exchanged, conclusions were reached, and soon everyone had their roles.
Kayelin would return to the apothecary to refine new recipes.
Rosia would head back to Terra and prepare a group of warriors willing to migrate.
Tessa would begin contacting the local authorities, laying the groundwork for Earth's future faction advancement.
Annara and Nyx were assigned to survey the planet Emery had chosen, gather intelligence, and discreetly prepare the first branch of Nyx's establishment there.
Just as Emery was about to dismiss the group, Gwen stepped forward.
"I'd like to contribute as well… let me go with them."
Her voice was steady, but Emery hesitated. Gwen had experience managing a fief and dealing with peoples, but she had yet to break into the magus realm—and her health was concerning.
"It's a dangerous place," Emery said quietly.
"You need someone like me," she insisted. "A non-magus can blend in. I can help."
