[ To Thancred's credit, he doesn't hesitate to help Stephen down as soon as it's clear that the help is wanted. While his charms may be falling on deaf ears at the moment, that hardly matters. They have a job to do and it would be best if Stephen was there to oversee setting up the device, seeing as he's handled the first two.
By the time that the two of them catch up to Yennefer, however, it's clear that the thaumametor is not working as it should be. ]
I suppose we couldn't have expected this to be smooth sailing the whole way through.
[ Thancred lets out a brief sigh and draws a hand back through his hair. Stephen thankfully does not suggest that Yennefer somehow made a mistake with setting up the device (which would have been likely to get him killed with a look alone), but that does beg the question of what's different about this particular spot.
As another cold wind blows through and sets the readings off the charts once more, Thancred frowns and falls into a crouch next to the device. ]
It is quite a bit colder up here. [ He lifts one arm up to hold at the side of the device, an attempt to brace it against the wind and observe if that makes any difference, much like one would while trying to keep a flame from being snuffed out. ] Is it possible they did not account for that?
[ It strikes him as a silly oversight, but he's no scientist. Mayhap they'd run the tests and yet had not quite been able to replicate the conditions here. ]
