Tarot in the first panel reminds me of Scar pouncing from the flames.
Douglas isn't my real name, but because of a name block put on me by a higher-order being known as Djinni, I can't say my real name.

The more i see Tarot jumping like that with the yellow eyes, the more she reminds me of Bronx from Gargoyles :3

The angels are there to keep them from touching the mana! That is why each group has one! Kitsune just wanted to see chaos, so of course he is there.

The Celestial team plan comes into play;
it seems you can’t trust anyone today.
Although Breel may be acting to save
mortals from consequences most grave.
He’s having fun being a power Ferret,
Keeping the power from those minus merit,
tossing Tarots and keeping himself Keene
with a physique that makes most guys go green.
He’s working hard on his mild manners
as we wonder which were the planners.
What’s the deal with this heavenly shift?
Has this all been just a Kid Kitsune grift?

I'll be honest, I didn't care one way or another about Breel. He was just kind of there for me. Now though, I'm a fan.

Okay, so if Breel is preventing anybody from just falling in, that right there is a pretty good sign that mana overload probably would lead to a...

that.

But what's to stop Keene, or anyone really, from just walking up and touching the pool from the edge?

Depending on how the spirits work, he may be able to be wherever he needs at any given moment, effectively covering the entire pool simultaneously.

Yeah, but Breel, and the other celestials, aren't there to prevent people from using the mana altogether, they're there to make sure it's used (relatively, from a cosmic standpoint) safely, if it's used at all. I'm guessing reaching down and touching from the edge is much safer than the complete immersion of falling in, and Breel would have less reason to interfere with that.

A fine point Leinglo. The pool was meant for minor wishing, and when it spilled, it filled the whole 'bank', which has made it... Rather unsafe.

So in a sense, the pool wouldn't have been a threat if Tarot didn't interfere, since her actions lead to the pool spilling and filling the 'Well'. However, Keene is also at fault for making Tarot knock it over.

Of Course, Keene may have a point to do such a thing, since when he's dead and gone, weither by age or by crook, whatever things he's done to broker rights with human and animal would spiral outta Control or crumble entirely. I mean, it's happened countless times in our history. The same would happen in here.

It's not to say that I'm siding with Keene or Tarot... Or the Celestials for that matter. Two of them have agendas I Don't agree with, and the Celestials are too iffy for me to trust.

And this is why ferrets are not allowed to play with pools of unfathomable power without supervision.

The geeks - I guess - are on the elevator to lingerie level, Tarot's crew seems stunned by it all, Tarot herself is doing a gargoyle pre-pounce hovering on the ledge, and Keene is in quivering suspended anticipating ... Perhaps resolution awaits....?

But you see, that's more along the lines of "Karishad makes a wish at the font of mana". Probably. Actually, with Karishad, who knows?

I just have a feeling that someone's gonna trip up and fall into that pool. I'm not sure who but it's gonna be someone. Maybe Peanut will run up to talk to Tarot and accidentally trip and fall in or something. Just a prediction.

Whoa, Tarot really got wild and insane, she's so scary... :? Good for Keene that there's Breel, his guardian angel, and for real. :P What infinite thing is yours, then? ;) Keene is in double danger... Put him down away from Tarot, Breel, but would be better throw him farer than the mana pool, too. :P Will this fool thing end soon, for the sake of everyone? :|

This creates far more questions than answers. Why is Breel keeping Keene from succeeding? if the angels are here to simply take the mana back then why even go with the others at all? Breel did after all say he cant die or be hurt so why even bother taking people? Why not just appear at the mana pool gather it up and leave? also, why is the mana pool liquid? We saw mana before and it came in convenient suppository form!

Personally i have a strange feeling that whats going to happen is that the mana pool is going to be activated by more than one person at once. Thereby somewhat granting both wishes partly and accomplishing basically nothing. Still hoping that Tarot loses though, i just feel that her character needs to grow. All the others have, even Daisy. Heck, as much as i dislike Mungo even HE has developed as a character.

The mana pool is liquid because it's a pool. The egg was solid because it's an egg. Crunchy mana shell with gooey mana inside. LOGIC.

Honestly, I'm getting the feeling that this is all leading up to some kind of reboot/major retcon (likely a soft reboot) of the HP universe. Given that this mana pool seems to be able to do anything once it is spilled it would be like giving anyone who touched it the Infinity Gauntlet or Heart of the Universe from Marvel or becoming Zero Hour Parallax from DC.

I don't know who Zero Hour is, but with 'reboot' you giving me the idea that maybe the celestials won't be able to protect the mana and the world will be destroyed, though Bahamut or so will recover the universe by 'loading the last working configuration'. I don' know which it would be though....

god i hope not those are THE most cliche kind of ending.
I'd take a badly done continuity reboot over that. (not joking)

No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.
