So I've tried going up, sideways, over water, underground, and through places most people don't know exist and looks like I'm stuck here with you crazy lot for the time being. This is magic tougher and older than I can recognize and that's fucking saying something, but it does mean that nobody I know set it up. Kind of a win/lose situation if you

Once upon a time there was a clock that had its very own City.

The End.

... Must I call you 'uncle?'

[combatmagic]

People seem to get hung up on that part. Short answer's no.

I saw it. Carousel with twelve buildings around, and the ticking. But that isn't the end of it, is it?

[i_themagician]

I wouldn't have minded either way, but it might have seemed a bit awkward.

It could be.

So, you're a magician as well?

[combatmagic]

Combat magician. Yourself?

[i_themagician]

Clow Reed, non-combat magician, at your service.

[combatmagic]

William Gravel. And what kind of services do you provide?

[i_themagician]

I make artifacts and do some divination on the side.

[combatmagic]

Don't suppose you know where I could get my hands on some kit while I'm here.

[i_themagician]

Kit?

[combatmagic]

Books, bits and bobs. You know, eye of newt and all that.

[i_themagician]

Ah! I know that there are a few places in the underground that have that sort of thing. I have a shop on the surface that carries most of it, but it's not up and running yet...

Depends on if you're up to going down there, really; there are monsters.

[combatmagic]

Monsters don't bother me. Thanks for the tip-off.
