Alysa turns on the newcomer angrily. "What is it, Ji'anna" She asks impatiently as the younger woman and her Warder stop in front of her. "I do not have time for this, I must get into the city before they disallow anyone from leaving the Tower." Behind her, Edmin warily positions himself beside Alysa to warily watch Tower Gates incase they were breached again. Through their Bond Alysa could feel only disapproval at her plan to search for Murad Cairaldazar Rosmani.

"You're not taking on the Dreadlord without me. I will come with you!" Ji'anna answers defiantly.

"No!" Alysa responds firmly shaking her head. "You will not, I will not be responsible for your death. Murad is stronger than you or I, and he has the knowledge of the Age of Legends. You cannot stand before him."

"Neither can you!" Ji'anna almost screams. "You need all the strength you can get, I am almost as strong as you. Add my strength to yours!"

"Ji'anna, no!" Edmin shouts over his shoulder, his voice ordering her to follow his words. "Talk sense into her, don't join her in this madness, she can't go out there. Make her stay in the Tower. She won't listen to me."

"Enough!" Alysa hisses furiously. "I will do as I will, and my fate demands that I meet Murad and die if need be. Otherwise the Tower will fall."
