[OOC: Sorry, I haven't seen the movie. Is it an automated medical unit that Jax is using?]

Jax is shocked the unit is designed to be usuable by even alien species and he has used the unit on himself to regenerate after massive trauma. Jax will reach out with the Logrus and probe Dierdre to see if he can determine why the machine will not work on her.

The moment the Logrus tendril touches Deirdre's skin, Jaxiam receives what feels like a great shock. The sign of the Logrus disappears, his arm is numbed from the reaction, a loud throbbing hum fills the air, and Deirdre's body begins disolving to patterned ash, twisting into a funnel cloud then dissipating with a scream.

Jax looks at Nat and Cal in confusion. "Have either of you ever seen or heard of anything like this?"

"I could have told you not to use chaos magics on a Princess of Amber, Sorcerer. Especially not a shadow from the dream city."
Calvera snags a bar glass and a bottle of amber liquid from a side board, pours himself 3 fingers and spralls out in a comfortable looking chair.
[If I remember rightly in this game Corwins lies and propaganda, I mean chronicles are know. But the Merlin saga is fuzzy? Because I think I have a guess what just happened, but Calvera might not, unless the Merlin saga is know to Randoms court in Amber.]

[OOC: Most details about the Merlin books are unknown to the PCs. They do know that Merlin is now king, Luke is a brat, Coral has the JoJ, Dalt is a pain in the ass, Jurt is a stinker, and rumours about the Keep of the Four Worlds. Jax would know a bit more about things in the Courts. Bella too.]

Nat stares at the spot Deirdre vanished, mouth hanging open. She shakes her head. "No. I've never heard of this." Nat's gaze snaps to Calvera. "Which princess of Amber? Which aunt did I just watch disintegrate?" She walks over to him. "Which sister do I have to inform my father he's lost?" Nat takes an empty seat.

"That "Dierdre" was not a ghost of Tir. A ghost of that place would not have survived beyond its borders. She was more than a Tir Ghost or even a copy out of shadow, but less than a member of your family. I have never encountered anything like this."
Jax looks at Cal. "I used the Logrus not a "Magic" and it doesn't react to touching a member of your family unless you are actively using your Pattern powers. So it should have worked fine on her as she lay there unconscious. I have never seen a Logrus tendril react like that unless it is interacting with a conjured item, but I have never heard of an ability that would conjure either a scion of The Courts or of Amber."
Replying to Nat."That was at least a simulacrum of your Aunt Dierdre. I have seen her trump and know her face. She was seen to fall into the Abyss at the end of the Patternfall War. I wonder if she yet lives?"

[OOC: How would Jax have seen Deirdre's trump?] {OOC: His half brothers trump deck. Pretty sure Merlin's Deck has her trump.}

Since the sorcerer already knows so much Calvera tries the whiskey. He should have added a bit of water to let it unfold properly.

Nat shakes her head. "Deirdre. It sounds familiar. Like Dad mentioned her in a passing comment when he was filling in the family tree for me. Well, trying to anyway." She pinches the bridge of her nose and then looks at Calvera. "Ok. So I know how Jaxiam and I ended up in Tir, but how did you get there?" Nat shifts in her seat. "I don't think you climbed the stairs in Chateau d'Ambre."

Jax selttes in behind his desk, and pours both Nat and himself a glass of Moonrose Wine. He passes one to Nat and relaxes a bit after a rather intense evening. "This should be an interesting conversation."
