Wait. You've not heard my condition.

[There are two things that sort of betray Ryn's moment of panic here. One is that Thancred knows enough to expect the significance of it all to shake him to the core. The second is that they're still so close that he can hear it when he stops breathing.]

There are alchemists in Thavnair that work feats barely short of miracles, whose studies found a means of shielding against something that sounds rather similar to the way you describe your voidcall. There are scholars in Sharlayan who would give much and more for the chance to obtain the wisdom of an academic from a wholly different star. We have guilds that would induct a new member in an instant. We have ancient civilizations just waiting to be picked apart and studied. 'Tis a rich and teeming world for one of your talents.

And my condition is that I would only contrive to take you there if you wanted Eitherys for yourself. Not because I would be there. Only if you thought you could be happy there, on its own merits.
