"Still, the bulk of it is done. Now it's just a matter of fine tuning it to exactly what I want it to do." She stroked the gem at her throat idly. "Because I do so despise summoning and binding. Necessary sometimes, but everyone's always so quick to do it and incur problems like our dear little friend for no apparent reason. But conjuring help takes so much concentration that it's almost not worth it. So... I decided to find a work-around for that." As she stroked the gem, a shadow disengaged itself from the door and solidified, its shape vaguely her own (though it was a bit hard to tell without being able to see features clearly). Then another disengaged itself and made its way over to her, and another. This didn't seem too phenomenal, until one noticed that they were moving independently of each other, and in unison, while Victoria didn't seem to lose the pace of the conversation. "I've found the results to be quite... useful."
