Based on what the time magic showed you, your younger self will be ending up at the theater with the captured priests.
So the horse is either headed for the theater, or whoever’s arranged this has left it behind somewhere along the way. So, you start floating in the direction of the theater until you see a horse.
It’s not the same one, though. The color’s different, and this one is pulling a wagon.
And Shaw is driving it. In the direction of a cemetery that looks a bit familiar.
You’re probably going to have to find time to talk to Qlat soon. But right now, you need the demon’s attention.
So you move towards the horse until it panics. Then you move back towards the sea as fast as you can.
A strange and unpleasant feeling in your back suggests it wasn’t quite fast enough. The demon has caught you. Except, it doesn’t seem to be trying to disperse or consume you… just hold you in place.
You weren’t expecting that. But a moment later, it becomes clear why – it starts flying towards your lure. It must be more interested in that.
Unfortunately, it’s not so interested as to let you go. You feel your ether being dragged along as the demon flies towards the ocean. Towards the trap you’ve set.
Which means, if you don’t think of something fast, you’re going to get caught in it too.
The ghastwhale rider is carrying silver manacles. If you can think of a way to place them between yourself and the demon, it might diminish your attractiveness to its perception?
