I watch Christina 2.0 move toward Varrock. I also notice a flare go off in the distance near the city.
Me: I don’t know what that flare was but it could be Ashlin’s signal. With that, and this world’s Christina, maybe we need to focus on getting to Varrock after all. I think we can do both without losing any time though.
I hold out two objects - during this time I have procured a crystal that seems to glow faintly, as well as a smaller one tied roughly to some string. I hang the smaller one around my neck and hold the other in my hand.
Me: OK, I’ve prepared a spell so I can search this place while you’re getting to Varrock. If you reach the city walls or otherwise need help, just crush this crystal and I’ll be teleported to wherever you guys are. That way I can search this place and you don’t need to wait for me. It’ll only last bout half an hour, but when the time’s almost up I’ll teleport myself to you anyway, hopefully having got some information that can help us. Then we can all be ready to enter Varrock. If anyone wants to help search the building, I can make you one of these as well.
If anyone chooses to enter the monastery, then I make a crystal for them. However they will have to sneak in themselves as my method of getting in is a bit awkward. I cast a spell which causes light to simply pass through me. Unfortunately this makes me blind while it is active, and so I stumble a lot as I make my way toward the monastery.
Me: (good thing no-one can see me making an utter fool of mys-) OW.
I stub my toe on a root of one of the trees outside. One of the monks pops his head out of the door and looks around in confusion, fortunately not noticing the rest of the party. Once he’s gone, I clumsily half climb, half fall over the wall lining the path up to the building.
