Chapter 817: Chapter 816: Downtime (1)

"Alright, well I'll get some teams drawn up; Mary, stay with me and give me an idea on the strengths and weaknesses of your people. I'll call the rest of you back over in an hour or so. Until then, go do whatever. Just remain nearby and otherwise ready to work at a moments notice, so no mysterious disappearances! Got that?"

Satanya glared at Jahi and I as she said that, with Jahi lifted her head from my shoulder to smirk as she said "Sure, sure..." while I just shrugged, not giving the red skinned woman a definitive answer.

Snorting, she just decided to ignore us and get to work, looking down at the maps before grabbing a new piece of paper and jotting some things down, talking to Mary in a quiet voice.

"So what are we going to do?"

Looking at Jahi, I reached up to pat her cheek as I said "I'm going to be meditating for a bit, figure out how to tap into that new mana some. So... I'm going to need quiet and peace."
