 Hey guys! Been a while, I've been laying low planning some epic stuff and definitely not being overwhelmed by the fact over how long I've been missing my family. EVERYTHING'S FINE.

And in the spirit of everything is fine, I decided to throw my all into a SUPER BANQUET! Sure, the newbies get stuff provided by the town, but why not eat something made by your experienced adventurers? And so I present, the all-together-eating-table!

[ In Main Street, Webby rips off the sheet to a table, revealing... the stuff nightmares are made of. Seriously, nothing looks edible. She... tried, clearly, but she's also clearly veryveryvery new to the whole cooking thing. Some things are burnt, undercooked, too much sugar in one, salt overflowing in another... One must shudder to imagine what the kitchen she used looks like...] 

I'll be on Main Street all day, offering my goodies and my friendship! Bon appetit!

Ah. I see. You and the Shadow friend are close then.

It is a great risk to rise against the person that made you however. I would imagine if she were made of shadows, one would have to make an equally risky journey into that world to retrieve her, if such a thing can be attempted in your world.

[woo_oo]

That's fine by me! I'd take whatever risks necessary if it meant bringing her back! She's my best friend! She made me feel special, and we had a bond like... like nothing I'd ever had before! It was thanks to her that I began practicing magic at all!

I'd... I'd do anything for her.

Aww, Webby and Lena, the best

[weaver_of_lies]

I see.

[Hmm. This was definitely Catra and Adora all over again, and Shadow Weaver knew her expertise...was not in that area. That affection, that love was not something that she really understood, not without manipulation and careful words].

And you are positive she is somewhere in this shadow realm?

yes, yes they are.

[woo_oo]

... It's the only lead I have.

[ The only other option is consider Lena as gone forever and SHE IS NOT DOING THAT. ]

[weaver_of_lies]

In that case, I believe you know where the library in this world is, don't you?

I am told there are several.

[woo_oo]

I've been searching, but I haven't found anything useful yet.

[weaver_of_lies]

You may need to refine your search perhaps. It would help if you had an idea where exactly you would need to look, or where your friend might have gone.

I'll admit I'm at a loss merely because I don't know the rules of your world. As recently revealed, magic seems to work differently depending on where you're from.

[woo_oo]

Which is another huge problem! What if whatever I learn here doesn't apply to my world?

Rescuing someone you care about shouldn't be this frustrating!

[weaver_of_lies]

I'm not sure what to do about that. I'm still trying to see if I can find a bridge there myself.

If you DO find a way to enter the shadow realm, I suggest you do not do that alone. There are some very dire consequences going to places you don't know to well. Take it from me, you will not like the result.

[woo_oo]

... Wait, why do you want to go to some shadowy plane?

[weaver_of_lies]

There is no "why do I want to."

I am. I was. And now, that is just what is my future is.

[woo_oo]

... Is there... any possibility we could work together on this?

[weaver_of_lies]

I don't see why not. My magic is not completely up to snuff, but I have never let that stop me before.

[woo_oo]

[ Instantly pumped up! ]

All right! From this moment on, you're now my mentor!

[ this can only end well. ]

[weaver_of_lies]

[Well. That was surprising. She didn't even have to-well, nevermind].

I look forward to enriching your instruction, Ms. Webbigail.
