#the mental image of his pure denial and spite is so funny to me

[sea-buns]

Been wondering how Essek has been doing without teleport in the wake of the Apogee Solstice, but we all know that man is teleporting anyway. Dude is collapsing on arrival from the amount of times he’s had to recast to get where he wanted to go cuz he’d rather take on the damage and extreme risk of death than admit that he’s been bested by Ludinus and his pet rock-god.

The image of him continuously appearing in front of the Nein with blood streaming out of every hole in his face. And Caleb’s just like,

“Uh,,, heyy Schatz maybe we should stop using that spell? Especially when you are traveling alone–”

“Not to worry Caleb, everything is under control. Probability is my specialty, and as such, I can assure you I have already devised a method that greatly reduces the risk of incurring any severe repercussions.“

*he says knowing full well he’s been wasting an obscene amount of Fortune’s Favors just to vaguely get here within an inch of his life*
