[As well? That implies that the Emperor wants off this rock, too. Going by what the Priestess said about the state of this world, that's not as surprising as it could be. Even so...still pacing, Lightning shakes her head.]

She didn't say anything like that. No one asked her that question. She just kept saying that the Emperor would let this world's magic go dry while using our worlds for their own means if we didn't stop them.

[Not that she specified what those means were. Did she know? If she did, she certainly wasn't sharing. So much for as honest as I have been here. Lightning snorts, pacing back through her own footprints. The deepening wells fill with water as the surf rushes in and out.]

I'm guessing your Emperor said the Priestess wanted out, or gave you the same story we got with the names switched around. Is that how it went for you guys?
