Ceera, still in dragon form, holds up her left forelimb, her eyes glow a brilliant green, and the crystals that Rusty offers rise from his hand, floating to her and attaching themselves to the bracelet on her left wrist.
# Then I shall accept them, and safeguard them, and attempt, when the time is right, to use them as they must be used, to restore ShishiOsa and his siblings to their rightful places, and to remove the threat of the Dark One. #
# Rusty, I will ask of you one other thing. To use these shards properly, I believe that I must know all that you have learned while you studied the library of ShishiOsa. We do not have time for a verbal recounting, but I have a faster way, if you will permit it. #
# Look into my eyes, Rusty, and allow me to enter your mind, that I may directly read your memories of that time, and experience them myself. Perhaps, then, I shall be better able to use the shards. #
Assuming Rusty agrees, Ceera lowers her head to his height, and her eyes again glow a brilliant green. He feels himself falling into those eyes, and then, in a matter of moments, sees the events of the past days flash through his memory. Then it is done, and he feels only a sense of calm, and a knowledge that the needed information has been passed on.
OOC: This would allow Ceera to act upon the information gained in The Darkest Tome, though she was not there herrself. I have intentionally not read that thread yet, precisely because I was not part of it. But with this, Ceera would know all that Rusty observed. BIC:

"Time is a luxury we do not have. I can sense Annammu's work everywhere and longer we wait, less chances of victory we have. I will only follow this groups as long as it is useful. I turn to you now, Ceera Darkwynde and ask, what you believe we should do? In this matter I recognise your wisdom over mine."
# Very well. Then I shall do what I must. #
# I shall take on the mantle of the Noju, and shall attempt to use the power and wisdom gained from this to further our aims. Lightice, I would ask that you remain here with me, for as you value my leadership and wisdom, I too value your counsel. #
# As for the rest of you, I fear for what may have happened in our absence from ShishiOsa's realm. Return there at once. If there is need to defend that realm from Annammu, then do so. If there is no such need, send the other shard bearers to me, that I might examine all the shards that we posess, and try to fathom the intent of their use. And if things are dire indeed, gather all who may do so, and retreat back into this realm, and I shall offer my protection to any who seeks refuge here. #
She turns to the Noju's Champion.
# What must I do to serve as the Noju's regent? #
