Another thunderous laugh issued from within the Zenith, and he grinned at the spectacle of the huge dragon being ridden by a solar woman.
"Ahhh yes, thats more like it Quar-Zagot, very impressive I must say! I am afraid that as of this moment I am both intangible to you, and as I understand it, I am restricted to being projected only within the range of a manse... Perhaps if it is close enough I could see you there. Sentinel will know if it is within range when you arrive at the location. "
Dal turned around to face his own Sentinel back in Beziar.
"Uhh Sentinel, can we track their movements, and potentially arrange to see them at their destination?"

If you need quick transportation you can use Arachnia's moving Manse. It's really quite fast and Sentinel can bring it over to you.
*Lirimana looked at Dal'Lumen as she spoke, the thought that Arachnia might not want others using her Manse not even crossing her mind*

* The Sentinel that stood next to Dal smirked, then nodded, going back to the crystal console and pressing its buttons.
All at once, a three dimentional map appeared along with the hologram of Quar and Lirimana, two markers honed near the Imperial Manse, each denoting who it was marking*
*Quar lowered back down onto all six legs and lifted his tail back up, curling it in a very scoroion sort of way* " Not physical huh? Okay, if you can broadcast yourself to where I end up, you can see it as well... Ready Lirimana?"

Yeah!
*Lirimana was grinning from ear to ear and was having trouble sitting still. If it weren't for her obviously adult body she could be easily mistaken for a bubbly little girl. The Twilight was so excited that she wanted to wiggle around to get some of the extra energy out but she resisted for now. Soon enough she could let it fly in the wind behind her*
Yay, let's go! This is so exciting!

Dal re-focused his attention on Lirimana and Quar-Zagot, he crossed his arms as well as gave an amused little smirk and shook his head side to side slowly. Lirimanas jubilant nature was certainly admirable, getting to know the other Exalts in this land would prove to unearth other little quirks and personal trinkets to Dal'Lumens curiosity for the natures of individuals.
"Sentinel and I will be tracking your movements from here, hopefully something can be found when we arrive, though I would suggest you be on your guard just in case something comes up!"
Dal stretched his hand out into a wave at the two of them, bidding them their farewell, as his Hologram wobbled and dissipated into nothingness, his voice could be heard booming as it faded.
"Good luck, and thank you my friends!"

Okay, see you there! I'll be fine
*Lirimana winked at Dal'Lumen and waved her Third-Arm Glaive with one hand as a sort of show of good faith that she would be just fine, especially with a weapon lik hers. Putting it away, she wrapped her arms around Quar Zagot's neck and grinned*
I'm ready when you are. If this is uncomfortable, please tell me how I can stay on your back without being cumbersome

* Quar chuckled, his booming voice ringing clear through the area and off the Pyramid shaped Imperial Manse*
" I am fine.. I am not sure you could bother me by sitting... hold on!"
* Quar reared back on his back two legs, making an arc in his middle, keeping his middle set of legs suspended while he rested on his front and back... then in one swift downward motion, he thrusted forward, his three sets of legs now down against the ground.
The lesser elemental dragon took off like a rocket, leaving a cloud of dust in his wake, covering most of the distance in no time*

*Lirimana ducked her head down so that they were streamlined and made it so her face was level with the space just above his head. Keeping her eyes squinted against the air rushing at her face, the Twilight was brimming with excitement as she watched the scenery rushing by, trying to distinguish between the different blurs that went by. She was going to have to ask for a ride again sometime, this was fun!*

* The terrain moved in a single sheet of blur as Quar-Zagot raced as fast as he could to their destination.
When they arrived, Quar dug his claws into the ground, using them as a break to stop himself. A cloud of dust followed them when they came to a halt.. but when it cleared, they saw the city of Arania out before them, the Aranea manse standing tall above the rest of the town.
Slowly, Quar's tail moved to a spot to their side, where it carved an X*
" There!,.. I picked up that wheat right here... no wheat in sight though"

*As soon as they stopped, Lirimana jumped off and stretched. She was still grinning from ear to ear as she looked at the spot where he had marked*
That was amazing! We have to do that again sometime! You must have so much fun running around like that. Hmm.. nope, no wheat here...
*She started to poke around and bent down to examine the soil, running her fingers through the air above where she was studying*
((Perception+Lore difficulty 3.. 5 successes)

"Thanks Sentinel!"
A familiar, bassy, dissembodied voice followed shortly by the light comprised form of Dal'Lumen once again wabbled into existance a few feet from where Lirimana was now stooping to investigate something, something on the ground perhaps?
"What have you found, anything? Im guessing this 'X' is a new addition?"
Dal'Lumen looked side to side taking in the landscape then craned his neck over in attempt to see if there was anything obvious on the ground.

*Lirimana looked up at the new image of Dal'Lumen and smiled. Straightening up, she ruffled her dreadlocks back into place and nodded once*
Yep, the "X" was something that Quar just made. Thankfully it didn't impede my search. It turns out that there was a woman standing here, fairly lightweight for her height, I would say. About as tall as I am, five foot eight or so. She couldn't have been here long, maybe ten minutes, and she ran away shortly after, you can see the trail that leads in the direction of Bezair.

* Quar looked down at the x, blinking his huge eyes a few times as he scanned it*
" You got all that from two prints that I can't see?.... Wow"
* He looked up from the prints and back to Dal, his huge dagger like teeth barred in a smile... though one would only know this by knwoing who Quar was*
" Does that help?... maybe the person standing here was holding a bale full of wheat?... or had a stack of it?.... maybe there is more I can find for you?..... I think there are books in some of the manses that might have information that could help you.. I was once allowed into the Empress' manse and saw the library. I have also seen a Demon strike thwarted by an essence shield barrier... I also witnessed..... flying manses?... somewhere...... here somewhere! I don't know... there has to be some more answers around here somewhere! Maybe Sentinel remembers.... maybe even Zeriku!
I don't know... what do you both think?"

*Lirimana chuckled a little and rubbed the back of her head*
Yeah, I did.. If you want to look for more of the wheat, you're welcome to do so. As for who she could be, I'd need to do more research. Hmm, I wonder if Arachnia would let me into her Manse and look through her library?... If not, maybe I'll just go above her and talk to Sentinel or Zeriku so I can get in if she feels like being a bitch. How about you, Dal'Lumen, what do you think is up? We should definitely talk to Sentinel and Zeriku

Dal raised an eye brow in admiration to Lirimanas tracking expertise. When Lirimana mentioned that it was a woman who had been there, Dal squinted as an obscure idea crossed his mind. He thought of his fight with Quie-Ra just the night before, and a creeping suspicion descended upon Dal.
"Lirimana, you didn't mention that the tracks came from anywhere, they cant have just... appeared here!" *Dal expressed the idea further with a hand motion as he said "appeared", it looked as if some unseen explosion had just gone off between his hands.* "Also, Sentinel is probably able to hear us right now, hes right next to me, I can ask him right now if you like."
The sight of Quar-Zagot's puppy like excitement at being included in this investigation did cause him to chuckle as he shook his head. Such a big creature, so unsure of himself, and curious about the world, Dal's heart frowned at the idea that he may some day loose that innocence that made him such a charming creature.
Dal did however give Quar a sideways look when he mentioned the essence shields, and flying manses inspiring Dal to immediately turn to clarify the matter.
"Quar, lets back track, flying manses... who's flying manse, it was here? This 'Demon strike', did that happen here as well?"
*Dal looked over at Lirimana again quickly as he remembered other
details about their conversation leading up to this moment.*
"Didn't you say something about Arachnia having a traveling manse, If not just Arachnia, who else has access to use it?"
