LILYBLACK (She pulls the portal lens out of her backpack, activating it. Instantly she disappears. Reappearing before the twin of the lens in her shadowed apartment in an odd area of Korup-Shun, she carefully places the lens back in her small, leather knapsack, where it resides in a special pocket. Throwing herself on the bed, she considers carefully her next plan. The defenses of the place are formidable, she thinks, but not so much as to keep her from sneaking in there. Ah, she knows wehere she must go for advice. Reaching into a hidden drawer, she finds a different portal, a mechanical one. Smiling at the inscription on the side, she moves several levers in prescribed ways, and she again disappears from the apartment. She reapppears at the base of a tower far to the south, where liana vines twiner around the tower. A small, neat man turns to her with an eager look on his face. "So," he says,"you have returned to me, after all, Lilyblack."
