[PQ] bring him home

So focused was Ronin on his work with Deimos, it was a long while before he realised that none of them had... actually taken any rope to use as a guide. Hissing a curse after he noticed, the guildmaster hurriedly tied one end of the rope to a stake he hammered into the earth, nodding to Deimos. "Keep it up," he said. "I'll try to get them back." And thus was the rest of the afternoon spent in search of his group - luckily, astral projection meant that he could be in literally two places at once. With the help of the rope, he would try to gather them all in their starting spot again - Snakegano included, Ronin having guessed that the pale serpent was his Attuned friend. By that point, the rockslide would have mostly been cleared... but there was no sign of Emmett behind it. "It's a start, I suppose..." Ronin said, deflated. (In order to keep with the timescale in Emmett's death post, I'm going to OOC say that a couple of days pass, during which the group's search becomes increasingly frantic.) *** They had enough rope now, probably, to stretch full across the Settlement. Ronin gazed deeply down the tunnel they had been heading down, the guildmaster visibly stressed. "Keep together," he murmured, "I think this is a new route." He nodded at a small branch through the underground system. No post order! 48 hours, etc. etc. Roana Jigano Remi Deimos RONIN Darkness is a funny thing. It creeps up on you.
