[thankfully the network is online, so he doesn't have to communicate his wishes in a string of hopefully sent emojis. instead, he can speak into the watch, calm, direct. not betraying the tiredness that comes from having just spent the better portion of a day, a whole night, and the entire morning on this project.]

Something relating to this supposed king was brought to my attention. There is a spell of great, ancient power written in the walls of his cell in runes. It's a very elaborate, highly dangerous form of teleportation, but there is a section that still eludes me despite my best efforts - the final outcome of the work. Unquestionably, if this can be figured out, we have a better chance of figuring out where in this ocean he should be.

A few more sets of eyes and minds should do the trick, if you understand things about arcane energies and magecraft well beyond your common tricks and illusions. I'd appreciate the help.

[there's half of a stifled yawn before the feed cuts out. he hadn't been able to stop, once he started - once Merlin actually got to work, he was going to get things done.]

[...Ahh, lovely. This voice. And here a part of her had hoped he had somehow managed to get eaten by that overly large sea creature. Or the ice swallowed him up. Maybe then he would have found some semblance of chill. (She surely hasn't.)

But ancient powers? Runes and teleportation magics? Shit. That's right up her alley. So, cue one very unamused response.

A sigh.] I suppose I could help. There was something in my dear mother's tomes on teleportation magics.

[Among other... things... Best not get into that.]

[it isn't the runes that interest her, but the mention of arcane energies that does. that, and her habitual desire to help.]

I possess some understanding of magical energy where I am from. And here I am able to summon a creature that is the protector of knowledge...

[yet she sounds, uncertain. hesitant.]

I would like to help.

[ #pinged ]

Do you have a photograph of it, or are you able to show it via video feed?

[ he sounds curious. ancient magic and runes are his area of expertise ~~though voltron may argue otherwise~~, and he's interested, that such things exist here. and teleportation? even better. ]

... Why the fuck do you sound so tired?

[ not even addressing the actual meat of this, oops ]

[ Oh hey gorgon face. ]

That's very exciting! I do have to say ancient runes were never really my forte, I always preferred the modern stuff. Teleportation isn't really my business either, but if we need a potion made I'm happy to help.

[ She laughs warm and frivolous. ]

Or tea, I suppose. I've just about mastered infusing some of the kelp into a little pocket bubble. Sometimes it still spills out before you can drink it, but c'est la vie.

[ God she talks so much. ]

...Is it the language of the spell, a portion missing, or something else that's making it a problem?

[Waver's not going to claim he can solve any of this, but at least trying to figure out a spell would be much, much better than trying to do anything else down in this watery land.

Because guess who relies on fire for their magic! And you can't start a fire under water!!]
