"A team of Venatori were discovered in the Crossroads prior to the attack on the Temple in the Arbor Wilds, and the prospect of the enemy gaining greater access to the eluvian network opens up a host of dangerous possibilities. A Riftwatch team will be sent back into the Crossroads to try to discover where that group of Venatori entered from and prevent future use of that entrance....."

"We could start with rocks," Derrica agrees, though she isn't sure if that will get the job done. "But you should see about melting the pieces after. Or scorching it all enough that they can't salvage anything."

Which is mainly what Derrica is worried about. She doesn't know enough about how eluvians work to know if just smashing them to pieces is enough to prevent someone from gathering enough bits to make a new one from nothing.

"It's a shame, but might want to send someone back to collapse the cavern entirely."

"I can burn 'em. Leave the bit to me."

He grins, confident, at Derrica. Like, please: that's no issue at all. The grin pulls at his cheek, which makes him register that there's food on his face. Matthias scrubs at his cheek with the back of his hand--which really just rubs the berry in to his skin, but. That can't be helped. It makes him look like he's got a strange pinkish birthmark, or a fading bruise.

"Only if it's broken to bits and burned up, why would the cavern need to be collapsed? We'll have done it all already."
