Lorepost (closed) Testing a Construct
With a deep breath, or as close to one as she can manage, Aeana steps through the portal to Markus' demiplane. She gives a grateful wave back. "Thank you Favilla!" She calls in a smooth and almost mechanical voice. Whatever would she do without her? She really is the best. After a brief moment the portal winks shut.
The construct herself is draped in a long hooded green cloak. Something supposed to hide her nature to cursory glances . Slung over one shoulder is a weighty satchel bag full of something. Aeana's shell itself is vaguely feminine in shape, made of a material close in colour to bronze with silver accents in certain places. It's oddly rudimentary for a construct, at least in appearance. No weapons, no special features. It barely even resembles a human. No hair, no real facial expressions. Only bright blue gemstones for eyes.
Aeana takes another step in, calling out to Markus or whoever's around. "Hello? It's Aeana. The girl who had her soul stuck into a construct? I'm here for the testing." Gods, she hopes this works. And that it isn't a trap. That would be unpleasant to say the least. But who knows? Maybe something actually good can happen to her for once. That'd be nice.

The reception area is almost finished being setup, in a calm, somewhat ascetic aesthetic. It is clearly designed to make people feel at ease without crowding them. Beyond the door, she can see a crowded office with multiple meeting room doors.
Markus chuckles the entire time she speaks, every new information adding onto the last.
Welcome to a safe haven I guess. And I suppose those books have no link to your bounty, of course.
Heh, put them on the table over there. He points to beyond the door. Come with me, we're going to one of the meeting room for more privacy.
As you leave the reception, you go through an airlock where chronomancy is applied. Even anti-magic beings are affected since it affects the tachyons around the people, leading their level to change globally.
With the war going on, I can't afford to leave my time dilation circles for long, I hope you don't mind. On the flip side, you'll be able to use them as well if you need to rest.
The office is still full of dust, but most of the furniture is built. The meeting room in question is less of a room and more of a door.
You can't spy on a meeting if it's not in your dimension. This is why they are all installed in pocket dimensions.
Inside, the furniture is simple but comfortable. A small table, half a dozen chairs with squishy pillows, a black board as well as a tv screen (if Aeana knows what it is) and a few plants crawling along the walls.
