Can it affect you without Cabeswater?

[Or for that matter...if it does progress all the way to Ronan and he is Unmade, does the demon stop there? Will it go to Adam next? Could it affect anyone?]

[unaffluent]

[ Adam is staring at his hands out right, lifting a shoulder and briefly picking at cracked skin before he picks up a book to flip through and to try and think about his hands less. He hasn't much liked them since the day they wrapped around Ronan's neck. ]

I don't know. I don't think Ronan knows.

[ Adam reached up to touch the cabeswater amulet that was always around his neck, wrapping his fingers around it. As always there was a warm energy he felt from it, and something like the echo of a lost friend. He'd felt incomplete when he first got here, cut off from Cabeswater and the leylines but the amulet had helped and Ronan... ]

I don't know anything, Gansey.

[disentombs]

Hopefully we won't have to find out.

[Gansey follows Adam's hand, curious about the amulet, but not asking anything at the moment.]

I'd be more surprised if you did know anything, considering we're out of our usual territory. None of the rules where we're from seem to apply to this place.

[Adam frowns because quite often Ronan has indicated its not all that different, just bigger... More powerful. But Adam still hadn't figured out much of anything since he got here.]

I guess so. [He dropped his hand away from the amulet, exhaling heavily.

This had all gotten rather macabre.]

[disentombs]

[Not that Gansey would know terribly much--it's not like he was exactly tuned into the ley line.]

In any case, I'd like to find a way to extract it or exorcise it or extricate it--whatever, before whatever is constraining it right now stops. At some point, we should meet up with Ronan and Blue and discuss it all together.

[Adam gives a nod of agreement but he looks tired and unsure of anyting that he could say now. He looks down at his hands again.]

Yeah. Sometime.

[He feels exhausted and overwhelmed in full again.]
