Meld'okan (nervous): "Uhm, err, yes, Queen Zil'iya-Sen, uhm, here's my report: The test of my new ballistic ground-to-air defence system was a total success! The tracking range and precision greatly exceeded our expectations!"
Zil'iya: "So they have caught the griffin? Is it dead or still alive?"
Meld'okan: "Well, yes ... and no ..."
Zil'iya: "What is that supposed to mean?"
Meld'okan: "I ... uhm ... I'm pretty sure we DID hit it. But ..."

All the candles in the candelabras remain extinguished.
Zil'iya: "Listen, imbecile. We are not interested in the functioning of his toys. We gave him the order to bring us that creature, dead or alive. So where is it?"
Meld'okan (strangled): "I .... I wish I knew! There were lots of broken branches, plenty of blood too, and it went completely silent when the bolt hit ... as if it had vanished into thin air!"
Zil'iya: "Then why did he say the hunt was a success? Is he questioning Zil'iya-Sen's intelligence?"
Meld'okan (strangled): "No, your majesty, I was just trying to ..."
Zil'iya: "We suggest he keeps his mouth shut before he hurts himself."

Zil'iya: "Vis'alik! Finally someone who still has his wits together."
Vis'alik: "Greetings, my Queen. Who was that poor guy?"
Zil'iya: "Just a lousy peasant too dumb to catch a Griffin."
Vis'alik: "That creature has been on your mind a lot lately, hasn't it?"
Zil'iya: "Of course. Where there are griffins, there is magic, and as you know, I'd very much like to keep my monopoly on that."
Vis'alik: "Naturally. But why is that your personal concern? Isn't that the guard's job?"
Zil'iya: "I thought we had them all taken care of years ago, and this one suddenly appearing out of the blue is quite peculiar. One of the cat guards spotted it flying over the palace at night, which is an unusual place to ever see one. I plucked the image from his mind, and there was something oddly familiar about the shape. I can't quite place it yet, but I don't like it. I definitely need a better image of that Gryphon."
Vis'alik: "Did you ask the cat about it?"
Zil'iya: "No, if I had heard that idiot speak another word, I'd have thrown him out the window."
Vis'alik: "Then what about the other members of the hunting party. Like that one guy, what's his name ... Tim something. Isn't he an artist?"
Zil'iya: "Oh, yes! Tim'ofej! I know him! He worked for me before. If he could do a painting, or at least a drawing, that would be perfect! I feel like something is brewing. I need you to be my eyes and ears in the city, Vis'alik. Gryphons don't just suddenly appear out of thin air. All signs are pointing to a new source of magic in town. I need **you** to find it so it can be extinguished before it becomes a problem."
Vis'alik: "Give me a day to commission the art and come up with a plan, and I'll get back to you when I have news."
Zil'iya: "Thank you. That'll be all."
Vis'alik: "Permission to leave?"
Zil'iya: "Granted. Have a good day."
Vis'alik: "You too."
Vis'alik leaves to [7, 2nd].

The teacup accelerates at maximum speed on the telekinesis machine, moving from [1] to [7] towards Butler, clearing off all candelabras and flowers from the table once more.
Zil'iya: "Oh, sorry, I ... I guess I'm a bit too excited for my own good at the moment."
Butler fills up the teacup with the pot of tea without flinching.
Butler: "It's alright. Just be careful on the way back, the tea is hot. Just saying."
Zil'iya: "*sigh*"
Zil'iya makes a very careful gesture.
RATS7 - Telekinetic SLOW TEACUP
The teacup moves slooooooooooooooooowly on the telekinesis machine from [7] towards Zil'iya at [1].
