To him, her description sounds rather like what Thorne fears the Singularity would do to entire spheres. Swallow them up. Worlds drawing in on themselves until they vanish. But it strikes him as unusual it should be isolated to the Nether. Is it because of the dragons' unique influence sustaining the land that makes the Nether more sensitive to fluctuations in Chaos?

He's considering his next question when Anneth poses one of her own. The wastes?

"You mean what you call the Ashlands?" He nods. Sure. He's seen it. He's plucked fruit and crystals as requested, though he hasn't any idea if it will do anything. No reason not to try, though. What else is there to do?

Anneth is evidently leading towards a point. He waits for what she means to say next.
