Briefing...

Question: What do you say to the request?

Response: 'I have no idea what that means.'

'I have no idea what that means,' you say flatly.

The coast witch sighs. 'Has she taught you anything?'

'I mean... we're not coast witches.'

She heaves another sigh. 'We need to make seaweed ropes long enough to reach the caves from the sea. We can't exactly do that when our fingers are too cold to move.'

'Yeah, okay.'

'I'll be waiting on the reef.' She quietly closes the front door behind her before you can tell her that wasn't an agreement.

You wait a moment before knocking on Deema's door. 'I need to change the weather so they can make ropes or something?'

She pulls the door open. 'I heard. I'm sorry, but I don't think I can make the walk today.'

'Hey, that's fine. I hope. What do I need to do?'

'Really, nothing. It's outside of your scope as a weather witch. I've unfortunately set a precedent.'

'Okay, but if I do go?'

'Find an enclosed area - or make them do it - and make it warm enough to let them work, but not so warm it'll dry out the seaweed. Hurry up and leave. If you do go.'

'Thanks, Deema. Rest up.'

She closes her door. You make sure you're halfway presentable before you start to pack. If it's in an enclosed space you don't expect to need a fan, but you'll definitely need hot air.

You open up the case Deema keeps by the door and reach for the vials. You blink. They're not warm at all. 'Deema? I think we're out of hot air.'

'Fireplace!' You can almost hear her pinching the bridge of her nose.

'Oh, right.' You laugh to yourself as you scoop some hot air by the fire. As you grab a breadroll from the kitchen you notice the plate you brought home last night is empty. Well, that's good news.

You leave the kitchen, breadroll in hand. Your bag and pockets aren't big enough to cram everything you want to take.
