vega;

The line to the kitchens is advancing. Wysteria shuffles forward by the requisite pace and a half, her attention dividing halfway between this motion and the young lady behind her. She has in some shape had this conversation a half dozen times, under considerably less polite circumstances. That the person asking is a stranger hardly makes a difference. Besides, they are both members of Riftwatch and the other woman has an anchor of her own. The information is probably of some relevance to her, or will eventually (inevitably) be.

"It," Wysteria says, surely referring to the limb in question even as some fraction of his thoughts wanders back to puzzling out Brown's note where it presently resides in her pocket. "Had begun to be adversely effected by the anchor embedded in it. It had begun to make me quite ill. So it was removed for the sake of the remainder of the limb."

And, presumably, the person it had been attached to.
