Jana sat on a wooden crate in the middle of the Quicksand's upper hallway, some of her belongings being moved from her usual inn room to a room in a new home. But her status of "technically homeless" being changed felt less heavy in her mind than the years-old status of "Echo-afflicted." And to her, it was nothing but an affliction.
Running her thumb over the small green gem that identified her as a Summoner, the Keeper thought to herself. Surely the only reason she'd been able to output so much power during the ritual led by the Hearer was that is was convenient for the Mother Crystal to do so? Had it been necessary, and it very nearly had been, the Crystal would have wrung all the power out of her to stop the crazed Elementals. No, it wasn't her who'd been chosen, but the Padjal the Hearer was so concerned about... That was probably it.
She had never considered herself one of the "sacred chosen" that adventuring groups liked to espouse, she just got flashbacks at inconvenient times and had some protection against Primal mindwashing. Putting the small gem into a pocket on the inside of her leather jacket and buttoning it back up, she stood to continue moving boxes, moving her thoughts into the back of her head as well.
