It was sort of... [ He considers how to say it, lost in thought for a moment before he brings himself back to the conversation. More centered. ]

I found something that looks like my soul gem, and starting hopping bookstores to see if I could find anything out before checking on the network or radio. [ He holds his hand out for Raine to see: along with his soul gem, there's another choker wrapped around his wrist rather than setting on his neck. This one has a full stone in the center that looks like it should fit into the recess of his soul gem. ] After I'd been browsing for a while, some other kedan came in. One of them had her arm in a sling and it felt like... my ears popping from altitude? And she was healing, and I got tired all of a sudden, very tired. Then it stopped when her arm was better and... they didn't see me there, so I left and called you.

[ He sighs, letting his hand drop unless Raine takes it to look for herself. ]

Like I said before: it was weird.
