*Guinne: Sigh... I should have known things would turn out this way.
 	
*After checking the weavedolls for damage, Guinne reactivates two, and they join their sole brethren behind her.
 	
*Renatus: What are these fragments, anyway?
 	
*Guinne: They're the 'heart' of the weavedoll. They house lesser spirits, which I control through my threads.
*Guinne: Where I come from, we craft vessels for the ones we summon. It's part of a longstanding tradition.
*Guinne: Normally we'd just puppet the doll and its imbued spirit, but a shard grants them a limited but portable source of power.
 	
*Nimrah: Art and magic, hmm? Sounds delightful.
 	
*Renatus: I see... What about Nabris, then?
 	
*Guinne: Well...
 	
*Guinne: Lesser spirits aren't really 'sentient', like you and I. They move by instinct and the will of their summoners.
*Guinne: Ever see a mage's familiar? Weavedolls aren't quite as...exuberant, but they are far more reliable.
 	
*Guinne: The most obvious caveat being that we have to be physically present, that is...
*Guinne: So, in search of a solution, I traveled west when I heard about a certain scholar's research on matters of spirit summoning.

*Nabris: Welcome back, Mistress. I've done all that you asked of me.
*Nabris: And does this qualify as more 'acceptable' attire?
 	
*Guinne: Y-Yes... Gods...
 	
*Guinne: That aside...you've encountered no problems? They're all functioning as usual?
 	
*Nabris: My dear Mistress, you should be asking yourself that.
 	
*Nabris: How are you feeling?
 	
*Guinne: M-Me? I feel fine...
 	
*Guinne: (This isn't the part where he claims my soul, right?)
*Guinne: (Wait, those are demons! I didn't summon a demon!)
 	
*Guinne: (Or did I?!)
 	
*Nabris: Why, you look rather pale.
 	
*Guinne: It's nothing! Um, you're dismissed for the night.
*Guinne: I'll check on the weavedolls myself...
 	
*Nabris: ...As you wish, Mistress.

*—Some time later...
 	
*Nabris: Ugh. How dreadfully boring...
 	
*Guinne: I heard that.
 	
*Nabris: Surely I have passed your 'tests' several times over now.
 	
*Guinne: What do you mean?
 	
*Nabris: You're either exceptionally coy, or completely clueless...
 	
*Nabris: ...But your desires say otherwise, Mistress.
 	
*Guinne: Don't you DARE get any closer!
 	
*Nabris: Tch...
 	
*Guinne: I don't— I'm not— Look! I know exactly what I asked you for!
 	
*Nabris: I don't see things quite the same way, little mage.
*Nabris: And as it stands, I'm getting rather *tired* of our little charade.
 	
*Nabris: ...Ah, but I am rather loathe to harm you. 
*Nabris: Not that I can. You, being quite clever, did offer yourself as a bond.
 	
*Guinne: What do you want, then?
Music: "Overcome"	Music: "Overcome"
 	
*Nabris: For you to realize just what it is you *really* want of me.
*Nabris: And the sooner you come to your senses, the better.
 	
*Guinne: I already told you—
 	
*Nabris: In the meantime, I will be quite happy to continue with my duties...
 	
*Guinne: And then that smarmy devil took everything I said literally.
*Guinne: He commandeered my weavedolls and inundated them with chaotic energy!
*Guinne: Don't get me started out how he managed to find my entire stash of extra dolls...
 	
*Renatus: Well, that would explain the puppets- er, weavedolls, going haywire.
*Renatus: What do you plan to do now?
 	
*Guinne holds up the pouch of fragments.
 	
*Guinne: Seeing that he's a malicious spirit that wants for a prison, I'm going to convert these into a complete crystal...
 	
*Guinne: It won't be enough to hold him for long, but whatever counts for punishment!
*Guinne: That'll afford me enough time to figure out how to send him back, anyway.
 	
*Nimrah: ... ...
 	
*Renatus: R-Really? That severe?
 	
*Guinne: Since you're already cleaning up, you might as well help me the rest of the way.
 	
*Renatus: I guess so...
