L'Orr-hui eyed the crystal suspiciously for an instant before going through the portal themselves.

Illia takes a moment to cast her own charisma-enhancing magic before looking to Fyne. She offers him a hand so they can walk through together -- if he'd like.

(Enhance ability: Charisma, upcast so it's on Fyne as well)

"Glad you are with me Illiam'iira," Fyne says. He takes her hand with a friendly smile and walks through.

And Illi follows! Squeezing Fyne's hand as she does.

A bright flash of light occurs as you are whisked away into parts (for many of you) unknown. It's what feels like ages, but you end uo returning to the Prime Material, as sure as the woman said and walk into a bedroom, fortunately empty in your case. Outside of the window are people and a large stone wall. So far, it does appear that nobody has been made aware of your arrival, but things may change when you step outside that door with a Mind Flayer and a Drow.

''Very interesting'' thought the mindflayer looking at the window ''Should we fetch a guard to explain the situation or should we go into broad daylight?''

The head tilted

''The former seems more appropriate...the other is more interesting''

Illiam'iira breathes in, looking between the three tall ones. Her voice is surprisingly assured for the situation they're in -- or, it's more likely, like Fyne, she's used to having to justify her existence. "Whichever we choose, I can keep people from attacking us for a few minutes so long as nobody engages in any hostile actions. And I mean ANY. Uhm."

"Explaining to the guard might be better." She looks to Fyne, squeezing his hand tighter. "And it might be helpful to let them know we're Eilistraeen. As well, I'm okay with being tied up if necessary since... I might otherwise scare people... and I already peace tied my sword. I have more ribbon if anyone else wants to do similar."

She then lowers her gaze to hush.

''I doubt such measures would sastisfy in my case'' the illihtid replied, turning to their diplomat ''Ser Thaddeus. The situation is in your hand''

Thaddeus brushes his hands down his fleecy thighs, "Well, off to work then. You all stay here out of sight and I'll go find someone with some authority to announces ourselves to. No subterfuge, just the straightforward truth right? We're here from Sigil in search of knowledge."

"Stay safe," Illiam chirps out. Bardic Inspiration for Thaddeus! :3
