[...Shit. Well, at least we have no strandees in either direction here. Sucks for the bunch that were just going to - I wonder if that's why, actually. Aegis was with them. Maybe Jane needs her own body or something.]
[Ayep. Which I'm going to guess Aegis wouldn't go for, so since Jane doesn't seem to mind not even having a body, maybe she wouldn't mind having one that lives in the Belltower and doesn't do much.]
[Yes, but who knows how long they'll have to spend being conservative. Especially Glass. I guess she can probably get a lot of leverage combining smallish coins and local magic in creative ways.]
Teno should really stop getting ludicrously drunk in backwater dimensions and talking about his old job.
"It can have a wielder but you don't need unique wielder status to use its functions, there were a bunch of us and it needed constant supervision," he says tiredly. If he just tells them everything, they said they'd drop him off near Cenarist, where he was planning to go next anyway.
It doesn't cross his mind to worry about the treatment of the Device that killed all his old co-workers.
"But if you don't have wielder status," asks the unnamed individual sitting to his left, "how do you get access? I assume it's controlled in some way. You don't make a weapon like that and then leave it a free-for-all."
"Right, right, you need the access codes, not to mention the incantations for the actual functions, lemme - it's been four hundred years -" He fiddles with his memory implants. "And physical access to the Device. So yeah, the password incantation is - here, I'll write it down." He scribbles down all the incantations they're going to need, then swaps back in his standard memory module; he doesn't want to live day-to-day with four hundred years distant memories that fresh.
