[despite the surprise, she can't hide the relief in her expression]

Mm, from the trees.

[axiomed]

But our powers are very different. It doesn't make sense.

[noprophecies]

[she shakes her head]

I'm not using a power - it is a sense, for me. I'm attuned to nature, though not nearly as much as a full-blooded elf. I can "hear" and "speak" to it, to an extent.

That you can feel it too, though . . . that is worrying.

[axiomed]

It still doesn't make sense. I don't have any magic.

[ Save for his one ability from the library. ]

[noprophecies]

That just means it is not something caused by magic.

[she frowns] The planet does not make you feel anything else, yes? It has no effect on your powers?

[axiomed]

I don't think so?

[noprophecies]

The planet replenishes my magic very quickly. That is why I ask.

[axiomed]

[ He shakes his head. ]

I haven't felt anything like that.

[noprophecies]

[she purses her lips, then huffs]

I don't like it. None of it.

[axiomed]

No . . . I can't say I do either.

[noprophecies]

Were I not worried about what would happen, I would go investigate it further.

[axiomed]

Maybe the Fleet should be informed.

[noprophecies]

[her nose wrinkles]

I have considered it. But if it is just a feeling - I do not know if that is worth causing worry just yet.

[axiomed]

But it is a feeling we both noticed.

[ And as such, he's not ready to dismiss it. ]

[noprophecies]

. . . let me go back down there and see if I cannot find out more first. And if I can't - I will address the Fleet about it regardless.

[axiomed]

You shouldn't go on your own.

[noprophecies]

[she shakes her head]

I don't plan to. I will ask someone to go with me.

[axiomed]

[ He raises an eyebrow. ]

Like who?

[noprophecies]

[she also raises an eyebrow]

Her name is Barriss, and she is a - friend. She's part of my ship's crew.

[axiomed]

[ He nods, faintly relieved. ]

That's good.

[noprophecies]

[she watches him for a moment before she smiles a bit]

Did you think I meant someone else?

[axiomed]

Actually, I was mostly curious as to who you meant. You seemed to have someone in mind already.

[noprophecies]

[she shrugs a shoulder]

I think she would be more suited to this than my usual choice. And I'd rather not get him involved if it is going to end up being nothing. [or worse, if it does end up being something]

[axiomed]

. . . Are you referring to Erik?

[noprophecies]

Mmhmm. I already asked for his help with something unrelated.
