Aleana relaxes, but still her inquisitive mind will not be quieted. "How did you do that, Zasa? Are you magic, too?" Now calmer, Aleana sifts through the new memories, trying to see past them to unlock her other memories, but it's infuriatingly fuzzy. She sits there, next to Thari, at a loss for where she came from, or where she needed to go. She didn't know her path, or her past, so how was she supposed to decide for herself?

Cadiana eyes widen as she sits beside Tulla. She notices the glowing eyes behind the group and shivers. Her attention is diverted from that by the glowing pictures illuminated on the wall. She studies each one carefully.
Her jaw drops in amazement as she watches them and she glances at Tulla wide eyed. . As Dabius begins speaking she focuses on his words.

At first, Tulla stares intently at the pocket green phosphorescent object. She is compelled to wander toward it for a closer look, but she quickly becomes distracted once the drawings magically appear on the walls.

Specific Action [Intelligence Check]: As she surveys the drawings, she tries to figure out what each illustration means and determine if it corresponds to the phases of the moon.

Dabius is unphased by the pocket conversations occuring in the crowd. Pointing to the blacked out segment of the thirteen pictures, "We are in the first night of three of Long Nights. Magic for now seems to be accessible and will not be drawn into those."

To emphasis those he points with his rod at the "Crates" many of the audience are sitting on. "Poor Thari she used her Faerie Fire before the Deep Dark hour had chimed in and she is now marked and chained to The Warehouse"

"Cadiana, your mother is here," and he motions to the Ghost Light Eyes behind the crowd. "The Shroud holds no one this eve." One of the two GLEyes closest to the audience and a few inches shorter than the first, steps from the shadows into the blue glow and her form is solid and firm.

"Cadiana, sweety," and she holds out her hand to Cadiana and Dabius continues.

Tulla anxiously turns to Cadiana and whispers, " Cadiana, that's your mother! What happened to her?" She then stares into Cadiana's mother's glowing eyes with eager anticipation of what will happen next.

Cadiana looks at her mother appear with a shocked expression. She glances at Tulla with a wild eyed look. Cadiana wants to rush to her mother but her feet seem glued in place.

In answer to the curiosities of Cadiana and Tulla, Dabius says, "Rogues, thieves, scoundrels, and pickpockets, when caught performing their craft are bound in the GLEyes form."

"During the daylight hours they appear as shadows, ghosts, and wraiths. By night fall they have become something more tangible like wights and ghouls."

"The GLEyes perform as roaming police and enforcers for "The Man in the High Castle". The turning process is something that none of them seem to remember. Life before and life after they remember just fine."

Checking the head count, "Tulla your mother should be here. GLEyes have you seen her recently?"

"The next tide change should have Tulla's and Cadiana's fathers back on The Shrouded Isle."

Still silent, contemplating her place in all this, Aleana barely heard Dabius' words, although she caught fragments, something about magic, and the fact that it was more readily available this night. She closed her eyes, attempting to calm herself, attempting to call on the light within her to envelop her whole body, the light that she wouldn't have known about if not for Mother Zasa's intervention.

Specific Action: Check to attempt to cast the Light spell on herself. Aleana feels the light inside her, and attempts to bring it out of her. I doubt it will actually work like that, but Aleana is only really trying to calm herself down.
