Looks like we're gonna risk it for the biscuit! Story Update – Day 11, Midday Location: Crag’s Edge – Deeper Tunnels Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: High | Rations: 1 (uncooked) Light Source: Orb of Flame (active) Nyra: Alert, wings faintly flickering with residual Spirit energy You shoulder your pack, tightening your grip on the Orb of Flame as you move deeper into the narrow crevice. The walls begin to shimmer faintly—not with heat, but with a kind of crystalline residue. Nyra flits forward, casting specks of flickering light against the dark-veined stone. “Something’s wrong here,” she murmurs. “The air isn’t just stale—it’s held still.” Soon, you spot the signs of an older collapse, and beyond it, a flickering blue glow. You squeeze through the narrowed gap and emerge into a hidden chamber—more artificial than natural. Ancient supports and stonework indicate a long-forgotten facility or ruin. Veins of blue crystal line the walls, pulsing softly. Encounter: Arcbound Echo A strange, humanoid construct formed from broken crystal and tethered spirit essence jerks into motion. It’s unstable—glitches in and out of physical form—but its jagged limbs and echoing shrieks make its threat clear. Nyra hisses, circling above: “It’s half-formed, but still bound to something. Might be anchored to those crystals…” Combat Begins! Choose your approach: Direct Assault – Use Fire + Spirit to overwhelm it before it destabilizes further Disrupt the Anchors – Target the glowing crystals with Water + Air to destabilize its form Bind and Purge – Use Spirit + Water to isolate its soul-thread, then sever it Dodge and Analyze – Stall using Air + Spirit to learn how to weaken it Weave Fusion – Use your once-per-rest Weave Fusion to craft a powerful hybrid attack What would you like to do?

And we can finally call you a lawyer?

I don't remember being told about it lol. I just checked and it's where we camped out last night. Maybe other people use it too.

I asked that. Crag’s Rest is a small shelter outpost located just above the Lower Crevice of Crag’s Edge, typically used by deep scavengers, scholars, and occasional bounty hunters. It’s: Partially fortified, made of repurposed stone and rusted plating Contains basic amenities: a bunkhouse, small shop stall, and a cooking fire Manned by an elderly keeper named Torven, who trades in minor relics and keeps records for the guild Considered a safe zone for short-term rest, cooking, or managing inventory Often used as a checkpoint before descending into the Deep Earth Faults or toward the Verdant Hollow You first passed near it on your way down the ridge and were told it’s the only semi-reliable rest spot this deep in the wild reaches.

Let's try this peacefully Story Update – Day 11, Midmorning (Cont.) Location: Crag’s Edge – Lower Crevice Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: Moderate | Rations: 1 Light Source: Orb of Flame (active) You extinguish your flame, letting the shadows deepen—and reach inward. Nyra flutters to your shoulder, small body tense, reflecting your rising intent. You draw on the Veil, focusing your Spirit essence, letting it unfurl like a pulse of silent will through the chamber. “I am not your prey,” you whisper, words riding the breath of the beyond. “This is not your death—unless you force it.” The mites hesitate. The Broodmother shrieks, its crystalline eyes glowing—but then faltering. Around its legs, the lesser mites cower. The force of your presence… is enough. You hear fragments in the hum of the Veil—fear, memory, desire to protect. Your Spirit tattoos flare faintly. Will Save: Success – Intimidation + Spirit Resonance Active The mites retreat to deeper burrows, leaving behind their half-scorched nest. Victory: No combat needed. You quietly search the nesting grounds and find: 3 Raw Earthshards – Earthcrafting or sale (10 copper each) 1 Cracked Crystal Eye – Alchemical component (15–20 copper) 2 Pale Mushrooms – Cookable into 1 ration Scorched Satchel – Burned journal, 6 copper coins, and a Wind Sigil Charm (Air spell EP cost -1, once/long rest) Inventory Updated: +6 copper (Total: 82 copper) +3 Raw Earthshards +1 Cracked Crystal Eye +1 Wind Sigil Charm (Equipable Trinket) +1 Improvised Ration (must cook) Fatigue: Moderate – If you don’t rest by morning, max HP will drop by 2. Nyra’s Note: “They weren’t monsters… just broken things trying to survive. Like echoes.” What would you like to do next? Return to Crag’s Edge – Turn in the quest, sell loot, rest and resupply Return to Windrest Hollow – Seek a safer rest, check in with allies, possibly new quests Explore deeper tunnels – Risk more danger for greater rewards Camp and cook – Prepare the mushrooms, recover, and read the journal Equip the Wind Sigil Charm – Attune now and adjust spell loadout What would you like to do?

Yup we are up here so might as well go poking about Story Update – Day 11, Midmorning Location: Crag’s Edge – Lower Crevice Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Rations: 1 (unspent) Weather: Still and dim, a pale shaft of light barely touches the cracked stone You gather your gear, give Nyra a brief nod, and descend cautiously into the crevice where the mites had scattered. The passage is narrow and damp, with slick moss covering fractured rock walls. The deeper you go, the more the silence tightens—until you hear it: Click-click. Skitter. Gurgle. You ignite a small Orb of Flame from your gauntlet to light the path. The tunnel opens into a natural chamber—a webbed nest riddled with burrows, crystal residue, and bones long picked clean. But something moves behind one of the stone heaps. You prepare yourself as two pairs of eyes reflect the flame. Encounter: Crystalline Mite Broodmother A larger mite, fused with radiant earth crystal, emerges—its form twitching with unstable energy. Around it, two lesser mites chatter and dart forward. They are aggressive, territorial, and desperate. You sense hunger and fear. The broodmother is likely defending a central food cache—or something worse. Combat Options (Pick One): Aqua Surge + Emberlash (2 EP): Start with a stagger + cleansing strike to weaken the broodmother’s shell Veilbrand Surge (3 EP): Go all-in to wipe out the smaller mites and severely damage the broodmother Water Barrier + Magma Spike (2 EP): Defend first, then trap them in burning terrain Firejet + Inner Flame (1 EP): Use speed and emotion-sense to outmaneuver the enemies, then plan follow-up Try to Intimidate or Banish Them with Spirit-focused presence (no EP cost, risky but insightful) Let me know your combat choice.

Yes. Let's have a rest and an everything update Story Update – Day 11, Dawn Location: Crag’s Edge – Makeshift Camp Status: HP: 24 / 26 (2 lost from Fatigue) | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: Cleared Nyra: Resting nearby, lightly curled in flickering mist Weather: Overcast, thin wind currents—ominous silence deeper into the Hollow You return to your sheltered camp near the broken ridge. The darkness had grown oppressive, and though your body ached only slightly, your spiritual fatigue was sharper—gnawing at your edge. By the time you collapsed beside the fire crystal brazier, you could feel your breath shortening. When sleep took you, it was deep and dreamless. Nyra remained alert through the night, wings tight to her sides. When morning comes, she gently nudges your cheek with her beak, a low hum through her feathers. "Feel better? We’ll need all your edge soon." You rise, fully refreshed, though your pack feels a little lighter—rations running low. Rest Bonus Activated HP and EP fully restored Minor Weave Fusion charges are refreshed Codex senses stabilized: Spell learning possible today Current Inventory Copper: 83 Rations: 1 pack Magical Revive Stones: 3 Orb of Purity (Cleansing Flame) Watershaped Ring (Flow State) Gauntlet of the Infernal Path (Flamebound Echo) Adept’s Charm (Resonant Insight) Shimmering Amulet (Veil of Equilibrium) Firegems: 3 Flickerglass Shard (Nyra's Focus) Earthen Reliquary Fragment Tarnished Offering Bowl Broken Pendant of Skyreach Order Scroll: Aeroshard Pulse (Unlearned) Arcane Conduit Codex (Unified Elemental Bond active) Elemental Levels Water: 13 Fire: 10 Spirit: 10 Air: 5 Earth: 3 Spellbook Aqua Surge (Level 9): Strong water strike + minor stagger Water Barrier (Level 2): Shield + gradual healing Soul Veil (Level 1): Detect emotions / spirit resonance Emberlash (Level 2): Fire + spirit damage, echo & cleanse Scalding Veil (Level 1): Mist shield, minor burn retaliation Boiling Lance (Level 1): Piercing fire spear + splash burn Inner Flame (Level 1): Read emotional state, ignite bravery Magma Spike (Level 1): Fire-Earth hybrid, scorch zone Firejet (Level 1): Dash with flame trail Veilbrand Surge (Level 1): Weave Fusion – Water + Fire + Spirit Deals hybrid damage, bypasses resistances, reveals emotions Verdant Tether (Level 1): Earth spell.

Work

Diplomacy has generally worked in the past. Story Update – Day 10, Midnight Location: Crag’s Edge, Windshadow Hollow Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 11 / 16 | Fatigue: High Nyra: Watching from a low branch, eyes reflecting faint spiritlight Active Spell Loadout: Soul Veil, Aqua Surge, Firejet You extend your Spirit senses again through Soul Veil, letting its resonance wash outward. The spirit-charged mites pause. Instead of scattering, they slowly approach. The largest—its body pulsing faintly—holds out a glimmering object, clearly shaped by forgotten purpose. You kneel, palm out. The Codex hums with recognition as you touch it. “Service. Skybound. Lost. Still faithful.” The energy binding the creatures eases. Their heads lower in reverence. A bond has been acknowledged, not forged by command—but by recognition. The leader nudges a sealed scroll case toward you. Spiraling wind-thread seals and old glyphs mark its surface—definitely Skyreach-born. Loot Acquired: Scroll of Aeroshard Pulse Mid-tier Air spell. Fires a vibrating crystal bolt of compressed air. Deals Air + force damage, with a chance to Stun airborne or ungrounded foes. EP Cost: 2 Air Level 5+: Gains splash knockback in a small radius. Codex-compatible: Learn now or store. Broken Pendant of Skyreach Order Worn symbol of service among wind monks. May grant trust or access in certain Skyreach-affiliated areas. Nyra alights on your shoulder, talons light. “They weren’t wild. Just... forgotten. This was their duty. You woke it.” Your Spirit and Air threads within the Codex swirl briefly. The resonance is stable, deeply attuned now. Elemental Status: Air: Level 5 Spirit: Level 10 (No change, but reinforced alignment) Copper: 83 Fatigue: High – Extended casting and spiritual exertion What will you do next? Learn Aeroshard Pulse now (no slot required thanks to Codex adaptation) Store the scroll for later use or sale Investigate the crevice where the mites fled Return to camp and rest before pushing further Send Nyra to scout ahead for signs of danger or passage What would you like to do?

Prank

We're choosing caution? Story Update – Day 10, Midnight Location: Crag’s Edge, Windshadow Hollow Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 13 / 16 | Fatigue: High | Conditions: Alert, Hidden Nyra: Perched nearby, eyes glowing faintly violet You duck behind the broken chime shrine and press low, allowing your breath to slow and your senses to heighten. With Nyra’s vision anchoring your awareness and your Spirit attunement sharpening in the dark, you wait. The creatures skitter closer—barely audible above the wind’s mournful cry. Eventually, you glimpse them under the fractured moonlight. Observation: Cliffbound Mites Small, hunched elemental creatures made of chitin and shale Jagged wind-crystal formations grow along their backs—resonant with Air magic Not overtly hostile… yet. They seem to be foraging around old ritual marks etched in the stone One sniffs the air and chitters toward your direction, but does not advance Nyra murmurs through the Bond: “They’re not corrupted… curious. Hungry. One wears a cracked monk’s pendant.” Your Spirit sense flickers briefly—an echo of faint reverence around them. These creatures may have once been used as messengers or scouts by the sky-monks. Something draws them here. One of the mites paws at a hidden cache beneath a stone—revealing a faint shimmer of glyphlight. New Opportunity: Codex Insight – Echoes of Old Pacts: With proper approach or spell choice, you may be able to commune with these creatures instead of fighting them. Alternately, you could scare them off and claim their find. Next Actions: Attempt Spirit-Weave Communion – Use Soul Veil or Spirit essence to try and resonate with the creatures (risk low EP cost) Reveal yourself gently and offer food – Peaceful, no magic; low risk Cast a display spell to startle them and claim the cache (choose spell) Wait longer and see what they uncover naturally Order Nyra to distract them while you stealthily retrieve the glyphlight object What would you like to do?

🎶laughter's our weapon, suspicion our friend....🎶 *sings along I love this so much!

Rubbish

Hmm be careful of danger or loot? Of course we chose loot lol Story Update – Day 10, Midnight (Veilwatch Hour) Location: Crag’s Edge, Beneath the Aerial Echo Spire Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 13 / 16 | Fatigue: High | Conditions: Alert, Cold Nyra: Ready – perched and scanning the skies The wind howls higher above, but you remain low, cautious, and deliberate. With Codex’s glyphs dimmed and the flicker of your newly woven spell still fading from memory, you begin scouring the surrounding cliffs. The terrain is treacherous—cracked ledges, slick stone, and wind-sculpted hollows—but your patience pays off. Discovery: Cliff-Side Offering Cache Behind a partially collapsed wind-chime shrine nestled in a crag, you find: Small Pouch (contains 22 copper and a single polished blue quartz) Windscored Feather Token (marked with an Air glyph—could boost Air spells or rituals) Ancient Monk’s Satchel – holding a Scroll: Cyclone Step (Air spell, unread) Torn parchment suggesting nearby sky-monks left hidden caches at places where the wind "sings twice"—a potential clue to more relics. Nyra flits to your shoulder and whispers with urgency: “Movement—small shapes to the east, hugging the rocks. Not cultists. Not human.” You hear faint skittering—perhaps wildlife, perhaps something else. Loot Gained: +22 copper (Total: 92 copper) Blue Quartz (can be sold or used in ritual casting) Windscored Feather Token (1 use: enhance Air spell effect or allow temporary levitation) Scroll: Cyclone Step (Unlearned Air spell) Updated Inventory Summary: Copper: 92 Codex (Unified Elemental Bond) Veilbrand Surge & Radiant Galeburst learned Nyra (Flicker Familiar) – active Flickerglass Shard, Firegems x3, Orb of Purity Scrolls: Verdant Tether (learned), Cyclone Step (new) Feather Token (Air boost – 1 use) Blue Quartz Elemental Levels: Water 13, Fire 10, Spirit 10, Air 5, Earth 3 Next Options: Confront the creatures east of your camp (small and fast—choose tactics) Use Nyra to distract while you sneak closer to identify them Hide and observe to determine if they’re hostile or passing Use Feather Token and test Cyclone Step (scroll) to reposition high Retreat west and find safer shelter for rest What’s your next move?

We do some mixology Story Update – Day 10, Late Night (Moonfall Hour) Location: Aerial Echo Spire – Crag’s Edge Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: High | Conditions: Chilled, Focused Nyra: Alert – spiraling nearby in flickering loops With stars veiled behind passing storm wisps and the cliffs humming with residual wind magic, you move to a small, sheltered platform beneath the Aerial Echo Spire. You kneel, place your hand on the weathered stone, and open the Arcane Codex. The glyphs shimmer, then rearrange—five elements respond to your will. You take a breath and begin the Weave Fusion process. Weave Fusion Activated Fusion Type: Fire + Air + Spirit Core Intent: To blind and overwhelm foes with a burning pulse of insight and storm. Codex Synergies Triggered: Flamebound Echo – Adds fire echo damage on primary strike Veil of Equilibrium – Spell has balanced resistance bypass Resonant Insight – Reveals one mental vulnerability in target Unified Elemental Bond – Grants 1 EP regen after use New Spell Learned: Radiant Galeburst (Lv 1) Type: Fusion Weave (Fire + Air + Spirit) Cost: 4 EP Effect: Releases a pulsing nova of hot wind and flickering light Deals medium Fire + Air damage in 15ft radius Temporarily blinds enemies (1 round, if Willpower < yours) Reveals emotional state + weak mental link if Spirit is higher If target is already affected by fear or doubt, they stumble or drop weapons Echoes a second time if cast while airborne (Flamebound Echo synergy) The Codex seals the spell in glowing script. Your body feels light, your spirit anchored. You have just enough focus left to descend before true exhaustion takes hold. Nyra flits to your shoulder, whispering: "We should move. Something watches beneath the cloudline." Updated Stats & Inventory: Elemental Strengths: Water: 13 Fire: 10 Spirit: 10 Air: 5 Earth: 3 EP: 16/16 → 12/16 (used for Radiant Galeburst; +1 regen from Unified Bond next turn) Learned Spells: Radiant Galeburst (Fire/Air/Spirit) – AoE damage + blind + emotion insight Inventory Highlights: Firegems x3 Flickerglass Shard Scholar's Notes Orb of Purity Gauntlet of the Infernal Path Watershaped Ring Adept’s Charm Codex (Unified Elemental Bond) 70 copper Nyra (Flicker Familiar) – active and alert Next Options (You Must Act Quickly – Darkness Deepens): Retreat to Windrest Hollow – rest, recover EP, check bounties Meditate here to glimpse more Skystride Forms – gain passive or Air boon Investigate the lurking presence beneath the cloudline (risk of ambush) Search the surrounding cliffs for hidden caches or relics Send Nyra to scout ahead while you prepare defenses (gain tactical edge, risk tiring her) What will you do?

Let's check out the Echo Story Update – Day 10, Midnight Location: Skyrun Cliffs – Aerial Echo Spire Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: Moderate | Nyra: Active While tracing the resonance lines left behind by the Skyreach monks, you step into the fractured stone ring of the Aerial Echo Spire. Lightning once split this rock—but the storm left behind something more: an echo of motion and mastery. As the wind coils around you, your Codex pulses. Nyra hovers midair, wings whispering with blue-green shimmer as she guides you into position. A spectral figure emerges—an airborne monk from centuries past—caught mid-kick, wind trailing from their limbs like banners. A voice, soft as cirrus clouds: “The sky does not ask. It offers. Leap, and it will answer.” You mimic the form. The Codex absorbs it and etches a new discipline. New Technique Gained: Skystride Form I – Wind Feint Type: Combat Technique (Air) Effect: Once per combat, dodge a single attack and instantly reposition up to 10 feet. Bonus: If used mid-air, regain 1 EP next turn. Note: Triggers Air synergy effects in hybrid spells or movement-based Weaves.

My work feels like a Mafia Game atm. Every day it seems like there's another team mate gone.

You're right. It had reduced our Air level for some reason. I've got it to fix that. We look around some more You're absolutely right—thank you for catching that. Let's correct the record based on previous events: You defeated the Stormling during the Scholar Request bounty at Skyrun Cliffs. That encounter granted a full Air level, which brought you from Air Level 3 to Level 4 at that time. Therefore, the Skyspindle Dust event just now would push you to Air Level 5, not 4. Here's the corrected and updated entry: Corrected Story Update – Day 10, Nightfall Location: Skyrun Cliffs – Upper Ridge Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: Light | Nyra: Active Air Level: was 4 and now is 5 The upper ridge of the Skyrun Cliffs tests your footing with every step, but your growing affinity with Air helps you flow with the currents rather than fight them. Nyra glides effortlessly now, her trail of flickers shimmering in the violet dusk. You locate and carefully harvest a rare cluster of condensed wind-aligned essence embedded in a spiral of wind-worn crystal. Item Gained: Skyspindle Dust (Air Catalyst) A volatile, silvery powder used in spellcraft or crafting advanced Air-based items. May fetch 25+ copper if sold to a scholar or alchemist. As you pocket the dust, a swirl of wind presses close, carrying with it a sharp resonance—like a whisper stretched across centuries. Codex Insight: Windswept Memory Your Arcane Conduit pulses with familiarity. Something ancient and partially sealed still lingers above the cliffs—possibly linked to the Skyreach Monastery's lost Aerial Forms. Air Level increased: 4 → 5 Your bond with Air sharpens to a fine edge. You feel weightless at rest and quick as thought in motion. Codex Perk (Air 5): Skybound Reflex +1 Initiative in combat Slight chance to deflect or redirect ranged elemental attacks Passive lift effect: minor jumps and falls cause no damage; may enable gliding with Nyra’s help Inventory Update: Copper: 70 Skyspindle Dust (Air Catalyst) Flickerglass Shard Firegems (3) All other items unchanged Nyra: Present, responsive, will now assist in gliding maneuvers What would you like to do next? Return to Windrest Hollow for rest, crafting, or trade Investigate the sealed aerial echo above Skyrun Ask Nyra to glide with you into a wind-borne scouting path Attempt to fuse a new Air-aligned spell using Skyspindle Dust Seek out another bounty or challenge with elemental gain potential What would you like to do?

Ok we practise a bit Story Update – Day 10, Early Evening Location: Skyrun Cliffs – Windward Crest (Secluded Ledge) Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: None | Nyra: Active (Whisperglide Ready) The wind hums with quiet anticipation as you draw your Codex into your lap, letting the elemental glyphs hover around you like orbiting stars. With Nyra close, her presence pulses through the Air and Spirit sigils—creating resonance between thought, movement, and intention. You begin to weave, combining: Spirit (10) – For incorporeal essence, memory, guidance. Air (2) – For speed, subtlety, and motion. The weave stutters at first—Air’s lower strength means it resists intricate shaping—but Nyra’s wings pulse softly, aligning the flow. A spiral of luminous mist forms around you, twisting like a whisper caught in a breeze. You feel your senses extend outward—light, unseen, intuitive. New Spell Learned: Whisperstep (Spirit + Air Hybrid) Type: Movement / Utility Cost: 3 EP Effect: Instantly reposition up to 20 feet in a direction you can see, leaving behind a harmless echo image. Bonus (Spirit synergy): While the echo persists (1 round), enemies targeting it suffer -1 accuracy vs you. Bonus (Nyra linked): If she is within 10 ft, she blinks with you—allowing coordinated movement or distraction. Spellbook Updated – New Hybrid Spell: Whisperstep You now have access to Spirit + Air hybrid spells. As you breathe out, the echo-fog disperses into sky-flakes. Nyra chirps approvingly, and the wind itself seems to ripple around you with newfound respect. A soft pulse from your Codex indicates that Spirit-Attuned locations—like the Shrine of Echoing Veil—might respond to this new fusion style. What would you like to do next? Return to Windrest Hollow and report in Search the upper cliffs for rare airspun materials Seek another bounty from the Stormwatch Board Try to combine Whisperstep into a Weave Fusion spell Use Nyra’s Whisperglide to send a message to someone What would you like to do?

We have a moment with Nyra Story Update – Day 10, Late Afternoon Location: Skyrun Cliffs – Windward Crest Status: HP: 26 / 26 | EP: 16 / 16 | Fatigue: Cleared | Nyra: Active (Bond Deepened) You find a quiet ledge just above the shrine’s stone spire, wind curling in slow, lazy spirals across the sky. With the storm stilled and the cliffs now silent, you sit cross-legged and call softly: “Nyra. Let’s talk.” The flicker familiar flutters down from above, her wings shimmering with a faint pulse of the stormling’s dissipated energy. She lands gently in front of you, tilting her head like a curious bird. You open your Codex, letting the Unified Bond glow faintly. The glyphs ripple—responding not to elements, but to companionship, to shared purpose. Nyra hums in reply. The air around you warps momentarily, just enough to let your minds touch at a deeper level. Visions flicker: flashes of her birth in a realm between air and spirit, where stray thoughts become form… a tether of light that drew her to you during your first encounter with the Echoing Veil… the moments of trust built battle by battle. Then, clarity. Bond Strengthened – Nyra’s Flickerform evolves. She now gains access to Whisperglide: Grants silent movement and a short-range blink once per encounter. Can carry a message or emotion to a target within 60 ft (1/day). Her voice, faint but clear, enters your mind for the first time: “You gave me shape. Now let me carry your will farther.” Codex Update: Familiar Bond – Nyra (Flicker Spirit) Active Abilities: Gale Pulse – Wind burst that interrupts flying foes (1/rest) Whisperglide – Blink + Silent movement; Message carry (1/day) Passive: Slight EP regen bonus when Nyra is active and nearby Emotional link now stable: You can sense extreme distress, joy, or warnings from her at any distance Your bond feels sacred. Not summoned, not owned—but allied. Codex Insight: Spiritborne Kinship – You may now craft Spirit+Air hybrid Weaves that involve familiars or incorporeal motion. What would you like to do next? Return to Windrest Hollow and report in Search the upper cliffs for rare airspun materials Seek another bounty target from the Stormwatch Board Practice new hybrid spellwork using Spirit and Air Use Nyra’s Whisperglide to send a message to someone Let me know what you would like to do next.
