Johann watched the magical display from a distance not entirely too far away but out of sight. He was drawn here by the odd sight of the darkness surrounding the man--had followed it when he saw it was in the park, somewhat on his way (at least at first)--and anyway, he arrived there to see a man with a nasty curse surrounding him and all was clear. It would probably be rude to ask about it, so he had been simply going to leave when the man began to preform magic. Or attempted.

Johann vaguely recognized the type of magic being cast. And he was fairly certain he knew what the problem was.

He got a little closer before saying something to the man. "I don't believe your friend is to be found in this dimension."

Johann chuckled softly; he seemed more amused than anything else. "It is a unique condition. The suit was designed with me specifically in mind, although I will admit to it looking a tad rather... outdated." He paused there, amused with himself at even bothering; to this man--this was probably not "outdated" to him. Rather--just plain strange. He shrugged lightly. "It provides me with a physical body so that I may move around the physical plane as the living do."

"A physical body?" a glint appeared in Strange's eyes as he catalogued the possibilities. "Most extraordinary! I won't intrude any further into your personal affairs, but I would be fascinated to know more!"

Strange turned his eyes back to the lake, "Getting back to business, you seemed to intimate you might have some knowledge as to why my spell appears to be fizzling."

Johann nodded. "I would not have any objections to further discussions at another set time."

Johann also glanced out over at the water when Strange did, then returned his gaze to the man as he answered. "Yes. If I have deduced correctly you are searching various places for a specific person, ja? That person is not here in this land. The places might exist... but he is where you left him in your own world."

((OOC: BLURG, sorry about that))

The magician stroked his chin in deep thought. He then very suddenly slammed his fist into the palm of his hand.

"By bird and book, you're right! I am searching for Jonathan Segundis on this Earth, but that is like looking for carrots in the wine cellar."

He sighed. "I'm afraid the complexity of the situation is a bit out of the spell's capabilities. Drawing up visions of faraway places is normally one of my most in-demand service, but here it appears to be useless."
