Iris considers the deal for a few seconds. "No. The fact that you're missing a hand suggests the thief happens to be related to me, and taking a shiny new toy from one of my relatives seems an awful lot of trouble to go through in exchange for something you've already got and I don't particularly need at the moment."

"Facts," it says with a snort. "You must always have the facts or ask for them before making an assumption.
"I severed the hand myself. You will find it in the mountains to the east of here. I was bound there long ago for my 'sins'. Take it as a sign of my sincerity that I tell you this, for if it were removed from its location the powers of this world from whom my escape have been hidden would suddenly become aware of it. "Something I've already got? Your Jewel of Judgment? No, its not in my possession but I could acquire such an item." Pippin: Are we lost? Merry: No Pippin: I think we are Merry: Shh. Gandalf's thinkin' Pippin: Merry? Merry: What? Pippin: I'm hungry |

"Generally, people make sure they've got what I'd want before offering it in a deal. Besides, the phrase 'such an item' suggests it's not the original which would make the item in question rather useless to me. Here's a counter-offer. Assist in keeping any further overly powerful trinkets from making the jump to my reality and I'll grow you a new hand."

"How would you do that? How would I do that?"

"I keep forgetting the thing about open secrets is that not everyone's in on them." Iris looked chagrined. "Shapeshifter. Adding a hand is easy, especially since you've still got one for me to feel what it's supposed to be like. And I'm not expecting miracles on your part. Just keep an eye on the dangerous stuff here - which you'd probably do anyway."

"You visitors exist outside of the laws of time. It is difficult to stop your comings and goings. The item, the trinkets that left here did not come from here. Originally they may have, but one of you outsiders last took one from an outer dimension and passed through here before taking it to your dimension. Then he came back and went to yet a third dimension from which he has not yet returned."
The creature considers Iris for a moment. "I too am a shapeshifter. That trick can not regrow my hand. However, if you could manufacture a duplicate hand, we could replace the original with the duplicate. I could reattach my severed arm easily." Pippin: Are we lost? Merry: No Pippin: I think we are Merry: Shh. Gandalf's thinkin' Pippin: Merry? Merry: What? Pippin: I'm hungry |

"That should be doable enough. By the way, what did the the traveler you spoke of look like?"

"Huh. Doesn't that just figure." Iris mumbles. She smiles. "Nothing we can't solve I'm sure. I need to go back to my own dimension for a while though. I've missed more time there than I'd planned in advance."

"I can enact your desire whenever we wish," the being elaborates. Once done, however, you will not be able to return to this place."

"That's okay. I like my playmates a bit sturdier really. There's two others around I should think of though."

"They are in Tarnegal to the South, causing trouble for me," it replies. "The sooner they are gone, the better."

"I'll see if I can convince auntie D to come with. Don't have a trump for the other one. No promises though." Iris gives a short smile. "Don't require any from you either on that one."

"That is well," the creature confirms. "You may wish to exit this fortress to make use of your artifact."

Iris does so, operating on the assumption that her new ally is marginally competent and will have a good reason for that suggestion.

Deirdre answers the trump. "It was you or Brand," she says, "and I decided to take the risk."

"From what I've learned this was only a short stop on Brand's route. Not worth staying here, really, and there's not other reason to stick around either. I've got a way out. You and Gary want to come? Limited time offer. I'm not coming back."

"I think I know where Dworkin got the jewel of Judgment!" Deirdre exclaims. "Here. It was probably one of five identical stones of which I believe we'll only find four remaining."

"I imagine it had to come from somewhere." Iris replies, face scrunched up in a scowl. "I'm not going to like where this is going am I?"

"Depends." Deirdre almost says one thing, instead says "What have you been doing?"
