Here I again serve as scribe to Dar Fannen, of the Wizard's Guild of
Carnn...
I am brought... to mind of the matter of the 2nd Gate...
Archimagus Asimov made plain, in his gentle manner, that certain
elements within the Guild believed they could prove my involvement
in her escape. ... they had petitioned Asimov, to employ a Trance.
I was undone. Or so I thought.
Asimov being a busy man, he had deferred his decision. He had, as he
then made plain, other pressing matters to attend. Perhaps, he asked, I
was aware of the single Gate to the mainland, which lay
under the care and control of the Collegium?
I, who had made a study of Gate forces, was like any other mage
possessed of that power, envious of the Collegium's sole control of rapid
transport to the mainland, and of the riches it brought them.
It seemed Asimov shared that envy...
