	He fully intended to have a chat with the weird telepathic spiders that inhabited the sewers, but it would be lunacy to go there at this point. There was no guarantee they would be as friendly as they were the last time, and their mind magic made them dangerous even within a time loop. He needed a way to protect his mind before venturing into Cyoria's underworld, and so far he had only found one ward that protected the caster's mind in the academy archives. Unfortunately, that particular ward blocked ''everything'' related to the mind, mind-based communication spells included. He needed something more selective than that.

	But just because he was unwilling to descend into the Dungeon didn't mean he was content to let Taiven get herself killed by going there either. He wasn't sure why he cared, exactly – pragmatically speaking, he shouldn't be bothered, since everything would be reset in a couple of days and she'd be fine again. Still, he was bothered, and since he was forced to have this conversation repeatedly every few days, he could as well find a way to talk her out of going.

	"Time changes people," Zorian said solemnly, smiling at his private joke before straightening his features into serious expression. "But seriously: I'm getting a really bad feeling about this. Is this really worth getting yourself killed over?"		"Time changes people," Zorian said solemnly, smiling at his private joke before straightening his features into serious expression.

	Apparently this was a wrong approach to take, as Taiven's temper flared immediately. He supposed she perceived his comment as an insult towards her skills as a mage. Before he could apologize and rephrase his argument she was already shouting at him.		Apparently this was a wrong approach to take, as Taiven's temper flared immediately.

	Zorian tuned her out, shocked at the revelation. How could he have been so ''blind''? He knew there was something strange about the ease with which he could convince mother not to take Kirielle with him, but he didn't want to question a favorable outcome and so ignored it. Of course it was easy… she didn't want him to take her either! It was Kirielle who wanted to go. Mother was just making a token attempt so she could tell Kirielle she tried and failed. No wonder Kirielle always seemed so sullen on the way to the train station.		Zorian tuned her out, shocked at the revelation. How could he have been so ''blind''?
