[pfsb] investigations and explorations
Two days after Moiraine brought Wei Wuxian's talismans back to Twin Peaks, after she has taken the time necessary to review all of her notes as well as the histories she has been collecting, she calls Dale Cooper, who is still in Olympia, now, rather than Seattle.
All things considered, the conversation could have gone much, much worse.
She is well aware that they are going to have a much longer discussion after he returns in a few weeks, but he had agreed not to ask her to wait. She, in turn, had agreed, as before, not to go to Glastonbury Grove alone, or at night. She also agrees not to approach the pool closer than necessary to place the talismans, or to test it with her own weaving - not at present, anyway.
Hawk had been her next call.
A few days later, after he has had time to consider and to consult with the Bookhouse Boys, Hawk knocks on her apartment door and agrees to her request.

When Moiraine returns to Milliways, she leaves a sealed note with Bar, addressed to Wei Wuxian.
Master Wei--
I made the trial of your talismans according to your instructions. When I activated the one at the northernmost point, glowing red energy swept inward from the circle in a wave focused on the pool at its center.
The pool absorbed it all. It vanished into the depths without a ripple, and without a trace.
Nothing else has happened. Yet.
--Moiraine Sedai
That task completed, she settles at her preferred table with tea and begins sketching something in a notebook.

"I do not think there is a need to ask additional questions at present. There will be, in the future, I believe. Between now and then we may consider various possibilities."
She gestures gracefully at the wards around them.
"Shall I remove these, then?"

"But they were my parents once, and it is... a small thing."

She embraces saidar and unties the ward's weave, allowing it to dissipate, then releases her connection to the True Source.

She rises, and a long beat passes; Harrow can hear every beat of her rotten necromancer's heart, measuring the time out slowly. "I wish you," she stumbles, "every good thing. Until we meet again."

“And I you,” Moiraine tells her.
“May you walk ever in Light, Harrow. Until we meet again.”
