Not for me.

It probably is better for you to keep clear. He told me he was coming for me.

[wizzardly]

Could be meant to scare you.

[probably not, though.]

But you'd best travel while he's still wounded then. Only how will you have wards done on wherever you go? You would need them or he could find you.
Protection maybe? Pay a mercenary?

[jacksonian]

I guess. I'm going to try to find someone who can do wards. Someone I can hire.

[wizzardly]

Too many and he'll

[what, want to kill Peter even more?]

You'll be more obvious. More of an immediate concern.
Shame you can't just ward yourself.

[...Right?]

[jacksonian]

[ A hesitation. ]

How could I do that?

[wizzardly]

[oh bugger him, is he getting involved again?

- No, no he's not, it's not the same because he can't actually do it. He's just - floating the idea.]

Wards are sigils. They're embedded into a structure so that their magic binds with it. Hypothetically a person could possibly be the structure.
But like with a house it would have to be embedded
Someone would probably need to etch them into you. probably your bone.
It's the same principle as his marks, only the opposite effect.

[jacksonian]

[ That doesn't exactly hold much terror for him. Worse things have happened to his bones. ]

Can you do that?

[wizzardly]

No.
Possibly it wouldn't work at all. But it's a thought. You would have to raise the idea with someone who already knows how to weave a ward and I can't.

[jacksonian]

I might. Thanks. For now, I'm just going to lay low.

[wizzardly]

Lay low but run fast. If it comes to that.
And perhaps send me a postcard if you make it where you want to go.

[jacksonian]

Yeah. I will.
