[Ursula's in her room, seated at the edge of her bed. Her curious gaze is drawn downward to the object cradled in her hands. It is dark, no hint of any power within and yet the princess can't help but wonder. She isn't one to keep useless trinkets on hand.]
I don't remember this being in my travel pack, though it was there when I began clearing it out earlier today. I don't suppose anyone can tell me what it is?
[She turns it in her hands, trying to fathom a guess, but no amount of staring provokes a memory or sense of familiarity with the object.]

When you have a moment, I need to speak to you about something.

The stone is the Dynast-King's relic, the only means to identify those of his bloodline.

Date: 2011-01-07 09:35 pm (UTC)An heirloom, then. I would see it returned to you, as soon as possible.
[Her expression remains troubled, though.]
Can it truly destroy cities?

Date: 2011-01-08 12:40 pm (UTC)Raithwall had more than one piece of nethicite in his possession. The Dawn Shard, which you hold, was given to House Dalmasca and its sister stone, the Midlight Shard, to House Nabradia; my husband's ancestors. Near the beginning of the war, the Empire which sought to claim our lands invaded Nabradia and her capital, Nabudis. They took the Midlight Shard... and used it upon the city, destroying Nabudis in its entirety.
[A pause, in which she collects herself.]
Yes, I will take it, now it is devoid of power.

Date: 2011-01-08 09:25 pm (UTC)I send it, then, if not bring it myself. Where do you reside?

Date: 2011-01-08 09:32 pm (UTC)In the Port City of Warjilis; Rasler and I are in governance there.

Date: 2011-01-08 09:39 pm (UTC)[Ursula doesn't recognize it, but she pulls up a map on the sky phone.]
Ah, I see. Warjilis is roughly on the way to my destination, so I can bring it to you. Given the importance of this item, I would prefer not to send it by less secure means.

Date: 2011-01-09 09:46 am (UTC)[A pause, she's thinking ahead on what to do with the Shard.]
... Thank you. Even if inactive, I would not see it fall into the wrong hands.

Date: 2011-01-09 10:00 pm (UTC)I've had others asking about it. I hope it hasn't drawn the wrong sort of attention already.

Date: 2011-01-10 05:25 pm (UTC)[Not good. There's only one way to ensure no-one else gets their hands on it.]
Then I would advise that you do not travel alone.
[Video]
Date: 2011-01-10 08:57 pm (UTC)I won't. Ceodore will be with me.

Date: 2011-01-11 05:31 pm (UTC)In turn, I would offer the both of you lodgings at our estate overnight should you require rest before continuing to your intended destination.
