 "Shadowing you is fun. Nobody sees me like this."
 "Not visually see you, no."

[PrivateNomad]

 <We're deploying tonight? Okay.>

[kj1225]

Kyle and Keith are there.

[Akroma]

<Yes. Make sure you are prepared.>

[PrivateNomad]

 "Good evening, Mr. Johnson."

 "If needed, I'll be able to teleport back here to get things. Like, it'll only take a few seconds to get it too."

[PrivateNomad]

 "Are we going to discuss positions? HILDA-ALPHA has a massive shield installed."

[USEC_OFFICER]

Lunette quietly joins the growing group in the situation room, waving at everyone.

[Akroma]

"I think planning as far as marching orders and combat formations is pointless. We do not have enough information on what we will actually encounter, and must be prepared to think on our feet, rather than distracting ourselves trying to memorize who should be where. ASMRA has magic users of their own, and I have no information about what they might be capable of. The one djin we know, no problem for me. I am heat resistant. Anything else? I have not the faintest clue. To be fair, I must admit that I planned the attack very quickly, perhaps too quickly. But I hate to see father in such a defeatist mood."

[PrivateNomad]

 "A djinn you say? Interesting, there are djinn in the Other Place. I am one myself, technically."

[Akroma]

"This is what you call yourself, but earlier today you implied a relation to the void."

[USEC_OFFICER]

"This is what you call yourself, but earlier today you implied a relation to the void."

"Does this mean that djinns are from the void?" Lunette asks.

[PrivateNomad]

 "You're correct. The Other Place is a dimension which resides in part of the void. It has a little of each part in each domain, with myself being an entity of Lolgrammoth. Humans call us by different names from mites to imps to djinn to afrits to marids, from weak to strong. Rare beings such as myself don't have a physical form and must take one when we enter the material realm, which is why I shapeshift. I manipulate my own essence which is pretty much what you humans call the soul and manipulate it, like this."
Bartimaeus proceeds to shapeshift into ICARUS with abnormally much longer ears for a comedic effect.

"This is what you call yourself, but earlier today you implied a relation to the void."

"Does this mean that djinns are from the void?" Lunette asks.

"Humans used to call entities like me djinn, but there are different types too. I even met a djinn who was trapped in a lamp once--can you imagine being in there for that long?"

Lunette nods, "That makes sense."

"Humans used to call entities like me djinn, but there are different types too. I even met a djinn who was trapped in a lamp once--can you imagine being in there for that long?"

"How long was he in there?"

[Akroma]

"What is a Lolgrammoth?"

[PrivateNomad]

"How long was he in there?"

"There is a certain spell which is able to take beings like me and trap them within an object. It's a horrible spell, Alucard knows it but he doesn't use it. I'm a patient being myself but the djinn in the lamp was probably there for hundreds of years. The spell is called Indefinite Confinement."

"What is a Lolgrammoth?"

 "The domain of the void which I come from. Beings from there usually are swift, like shape-shifters. They have a notorious reputation for being sly like me and are good spies. They tear friendships and families apart and take pleasure from it."
