Clyde tried to keep flowing quite a lot of his Mana now. He didn't think that someone - the Senior Council - would find anything suspicious about him. He's just sleeping, so nothing should question him.
He's only done it once. So for the second try, Clyde was expecting that he would still feel a little awkward about doing this.
Clyde was patient, it took him about ten minutes to get something. Until finally he could feel he had grasped Asqa on the other end.
'Clyde?' Asqa's voice sounded panicked. Since this was a sound coming directly from her head, Clyde could clearly feel it.
'Sorry. Did I surprise you?' Clyde asked.
'Yes. You didn't say you were going to contact me first.'
'You know I can't do that,' Clyde replied.
Asqa paused. Then said. 'You are right. So, what's going on now?'
'Have you got anything?' Clyde asked.
