Elspeth (and Jacob) return home to Aurum, and promptly from there to Isle Esme, after the party has concluded, and Elspeth starts looking for Felicity. (And incidentally assessing the house and island for damages.)

"Kerron in particular might make sense to have visit. He has a witch-ingot ability that lets him detect goals and intentions and the like, so if you decided to be obnoxious to him he could leave, first, if he wasn't in the mood."

[inhispockets]

Felicity snorts.

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Let me know if you'd like him invited over."

[inhispockets]

"You can, I guess."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Now, or another time?"

[inhispockets]

"I don't care."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"I'll ask him tomorrow; his sleep cycle may have been thrown off by being in a space plant."

[inhispockets]

He shrugs.

"Aianon makes all kinds of interesting plants. It's something of a specialty of his."

[inhispockets]

"What a hobby."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"It's useful, anyway. But he did get stuck in Origin when he was there ecoforming the Saturn there and Jane broke."

"But now he's learned to freecast so he's going to make a treehouse palace for Tab."

[inhispockets]

"I bet it'll be pretty."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"I imagine so. Jane will be able to show you pictures on your computer, if you like, once it's done."

[inhispockets]

"Mm."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Corona says I shouldn't offer you one of her gems yet."

[inhispockets]

"Mmh," says Felicity.

[her_imperial_radiance]

"On the grounds that its primary purpose would be to let her take you back if you wandered out of the universe, and he judges that you aren't yet likely interested in coming back."

[inhispockets]

"I'm not interested in being brought back," he says, and he scoops up his poof and walks out.

Elspeth doesn't follow him.
