Thirty minutes later, Lockre dozed in his seat aboard the airship that would be taking them to the outer transit centers. It would be some time before he needed to leave his seat anyway.
"Lockre…" a voice echoed in his head as several figures appeared in his mind's eye.
"Give me…" another voice said as a strange being flowed out of a massive crystal.
"YOUR EXISTENCE!" a corrupted version of himself yelled as energy cascaded from his palms.
"No… "
"Lockre!" a feminine voice called to him.
"To you I give limited prescience…" his own voice explained to him, "Use it to see future dangers. Protect us. THe Sleeper has found what we sought."
"Lockre, are you alright?" Mira's voice said again as he opened his eyes.
"Yes, everything is perfectly normal." Lockre answered in his usual deadpan.
"Oh, silly me, I must have sensed someone else's irrational fear." Mira said with a happy yet knowing smile on her face.
