chromatic saw the windowpapers then immediately said she was going to take her art back
the 6 of us volunteered to join her in solidarity and soon we had several others along including aejar and nine so we teleported to wroat as a large group
the folks at the enduring collection had no idea what to make of us
they didn't recognize chromatic and they kept trying to talk to aejar in his role as prince but he told them to ignore him and listen to the artist
he gets it
chromatic was true to her word – she reached across the rope barrier and took her art back
alarms went off instantly but we formed a circle to keep the guards from interfering
chromatic asked spark to burn the whole stack which was slightly surprising but made perfect sense
the guards did not get it at all and aejar had to tell them again to stop and listen while she explained:
"i gave you a chance to understand what i was doing and you didn't so you don't get to keep it"
then she said "i gave this as a gift even after you tried to take it from me so now you can't have it"
and then "you can't handle any of us – we'll build our own museum and fill it with our own art and we don't need this place"
with that we left as a group and teleported back to sharn
chromatic is exactly the sort of fearless artist i'm glad to know exists out here and i want to see her triumph
