The Courtyard is empty by the time they arrive. Stray crates and casks, abandoned weapons and books litter the ground. More recent signs of Venatori activity where recent is a relative enough term. Within, adjacent to the gate there's a table stacked with books, a note tucked into the pages of one left half open, exposed to the elements. Morven, Alexius has failed. The work here thus becomes all the more vital. Secure the site at all costs. The Elder One will not tolerate another mistake on our part. -Servis In the main chamber- Tevinter mages in antiquated robes are frozen, caught in combat with demons while a strange rift hovers in the center of the room. Stones that had tumbled from the rafters are locked in place, solid and unmoving even when pressed against- crackling light from the mage's fingers in defensive spells remain still. Littered about are notes, scraps of research and manuscripts on how this came to be.

Too many limbs and not enough room to work- a lesser mage might become disoriented. But there is no margin of error, here, and Adelaide wields ice with a pinpoint precision- impaling the rage demon, repelling a despair demon with a wall before it can return the element in kind. That she cannot harm quite so well. "Rinot-"

It is all the warning Korrin is given before crackling bands of golden light skitter their way across the ground to her, locking in a circle and flaring bright about her feet. As the light fades- time slows around her, leavening her hastened.
