I believe I have some information that might be of use, or at least to consider.

[The voice is low and very even, having only the barest hint of a conversational cadence.]

My companion, Shuyi, and I managed to locate and capture Miz Poppy. We captured her and two of her Deemer companions, and as we began to take them back to Perdition's Rest, she had some very interesting things to say.

She reaffirmed that there was no way to safely separate a Taraxa from its host without the destruction of the latter. What is more troubling, however, was that she insisted that hers and her compatriots' mission of destruction was something which the TIMELINE.EXE asked of them.

Before we could deliver her back here, one of the other captured Deemers sacrificed himself so that she may escape in the confusion.

It is not my intention to offer this information in order to incite mass confusion or doubt, as it is quite possible she was lying. But I do not think we can completely discount that she might be telling the truth—or that she and her fellows are somehow deluded enough to believe that they are. It is, as I originally said, something to at the very least keep in mind.

Fair enough. And there's only so far a pair of eyes can see.

Sounds pretty damned useful, stranger. Got a real knack for spell casting, then?

[thornydisposition]

I am a mage, yes.

I am unfortunately... limited with what I can do currently, considering external factors, but rituals such as the guiding totem are easier to manage.

[Anything with a process, a chant, a spell was easier—it lessened the amount of magical energy he had to use to leverage open the "door" which would allow him to change something with magic.]

Are you familiar with magic yourself?

[fateality]

Mostly familiar with mine, but there's magic plenty in Runeterra. More kinds than I could list, truthfully.

Would you, theoretically, be able to teach a guy how a guiding totem works?

[thornydisposition]

Oh? I would love to discuss these different types of magic at a later time.

[He loves magic, okay. He's a mage. It's what he does.]

Theoretically, yes... I am unsure how certain rituals and spells transfer when there is a disparity in the origin and channel of energy. But it is a relatively simple process.

I would be very interested to see the results.

[fateality]

When we got a breather, I'll share a bit. Hopefully then, you'll have the time to share some of what you know to me too, friend.

In any case, suppose we ought to focus on the Deemers and whatnot for now.

[thornydisposition]

Agreed.

When the dust finally settles, I will be sure to reach out to you.

[fateality]

I'd appreciate that.

Name's Twisted Fate.

[thornydisposition]

[Interesting moniker.]

And I, Elias Ainsworth.

A pleasure.

[fateality]

Same here.

Thanks for your time, Elias. I'll catch you 'round.
