>"Maybe," Archer says, as she follows you.
>Hustling back to the beach, you don't see much in the way of footprints. You suppose that's the side effect of a prolonged windstorm kicking up all the sand.

Okay, OOC - am I actually totally mistaken about masters usually keeping their seals if their servant disappears? That was something I gleaned from the wiki a while ago and if I've been wrong the whole time I have done an egregious amount of faffing about.

The quick answer is yes and no. It's situational.

In that case I'll just write it off as Lily's own lack of reference. Sister Gibson didn't correct us when we posed the question, so...

> "I've been entirely sporting up until now, so can you just let me see you for two minutes and we can be done with this?"

> "Forget it. Get out of here, Georgia. If any other master sees you they'll probably ice you on the spot."
