Things That Come In Threes

"Especially not with modern machinery."

"Yes, they are very...tidy by nature but, they become very versatile when in service to a master or mistress. They can make invaluable thieves and spies, so long as they are not asked to violate their own sense of morality."

Sean chuckled softly at Sam's comment before wincing again.

Oh, bloody hell broken ribs are a bother...

"Details left out of the bestiaries," Sean said, "Won't lie, probably could use one for when I disappear for days at a time in the workshop."

"Human knowledge of the fey is...lacking and often misinterpreted. Not as useful in workshops if human ley magic is in use."

"Given that aside from some humans these are longest actual conversations a human mage has had with any fey I'm not surprised there aren't more misunderstandings," Sean said with a shrug. "Human magic affects the brownie's abilities?"

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 1:15 am

She looked thoughtful. "Very much and more. Fey are magic made sentient, living, breathing, feeling bits of the Source. Human magic and fey magic are like cousins, compatible but not the best of ideas to do so."

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 5:06 pm

"Interesting," Sean said, "Sharing the same root, but on distant branches. Fey magic doesn't seem to have affected human magic, but perhaps it's simply because human magic is more... structured."

"It is how your minds work and how you are build physically. You take the raw, shape and bend it to your liking. The reaction aren't always explosive when crossing the two but...there are many stories of men who walked through the Feywild, but dwelling there for any length of time was never good for ones health. Same for Fey here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 7:32 pm

"...it wasn't always that way," Sam mutters, seemingly on reflex.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 7:59 pm

"It wasn't?" Sean asked Sam raising an eyebrow.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 8:47 pm

"I'm... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:00 pm

"Stories mostly. Not even my mother is old enough to remember the time when there was only one magic, even she grew up with only stories of that time."

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:10 pm

Sean was quiet for a moment considering what Sam and Vivienne were saying.

"What like the legends and creation stories involving the elder gods?" Sean asked, "Gaea, Oshtur, Set, and...

A name whispered in the back of his mind. Something he couldn't quite place. All dirt and darkness.

...Chthon. They always sounded more like ramblings than anything concrete."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:12 pm

"Sometimes I get... flashes. Glimpses of something older."

"It's hard to know what will bring them on."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:43 pm

"In the beginning there was darkness, then the spark...the light...magic...life...self awareness."

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:49 pm

"The Demiurge source of all creation," Sean said eyes distant as if finally recalling some long forgotten memory.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Wed Dec 19, 2018 3:29 pm

"Hey, Viv," the wolf says from the corner, breaking into the conversation, "Do me a favor and say goodbye to Illsa for me. Tell her her food was delicious."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 19, 2018 5:35 pm

She perks up on hearing the wolf speak again.

"...Tereza?"

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Wed Dec 19, 2018 5:40 pm

The wolf still hasn't left the corner and doesn't look up. "What?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 19, 2018 9:44 pm

"I just... wondered if she was talking to us again," she sighs.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Wed Dec 19, 2018 11:59 pm

"For the moment."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 12:02 am

"...you're not getting sent away, love."

"Or if you are, they'll have to send me away too."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 12:09 am

"And myself."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 12:23 am

"You two... don't. Just don't. You know you don't want that, Sam, and you know you don't want that for Viv either. This isn't some tropical island we're talking about, it's Muir."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 12:30 am

"I don't want it for you, especially when it's my bloody fault you're in this mess."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 1:01 am

"What we want and what we need are sometimes very different things. I said I was yours, I go where you two go."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 1:14 am

The wolf just gives a huffing sigh and Sam can feel the wolf rise back to the surface.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 1:50 am

"...I bloody hate this," Sam mutters, sparing another venomous glance for the giant isopod.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 2:56 pm

"We are a team, always." She said as she stood at Tereza's cell then walked to Sam's placing her hand on the barrier.

"You have power, you choose how to wield it."

"And Sean, if you ever have more questions, come find me."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 4:25 pm

"Careful what you offer Vivienne because it's more how many questions than if there will be any," Sean said with a smile before moving to make sure the prisoners were secured as he was feeling like he was intruding on some kind of moment.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 20, 2018 7:56 pm

"...should've asked for clothes," Sam grumbles, slumping down against the wall of the cell.

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 6:32 pm

She smiled over her shoulder. "As you wish, Love."

by **Narrator** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 6:35 pm

Ten minutes a small tidy looking woman appears at the barrier to Sam's cell. She seems more then a little stunned by the situation before her.

Softly she clears her throat. "Hmm...mistress?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 6:42 pm

She looks up, blinking.

"...not any mistress of yours, I don't think."

by **Narrator** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 7:26 pm

"I am Ilsa. With respect, you are a being of great power. You are 'mistress' just as the mortal monarch of the Isle is always 'majesty'." She makes a polite tiny bow.

"I was told to aid the lady loves of the Daughter. You are the bearer of the Raven Mantle. It is a honor and a privilege. I have met the Silver Wolf and her honest kind words of praise are why I live to serve."

"How may I aid you best?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 7:32 pm

"...oh, I thought she'd just raid my dresser."

"We ah... probably need some clothes."

by **Vivienne Chinnoir** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 7:46 pm

"She mentioned you may need more then clothing and were in a unique situation. I can provide a variety of items, healing or...bathing? If you prefer your own fashions I can fetch those with ease."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 7:55 pm

"I'm not... picky, really. I just get the feeling I may be here awhile."

"See to Tereza first."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 8:35 pm

"See to her first" comes the response from the corner, "I don't need anything."

by **Narrator** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 10:34 pm

She looks between the two women and nods. "Your affections are admirable, but the Wolf is right." She blinks out of existence for a moment and returns in a similar fashion, her arms laden with cloth and clothing as well as a familiar covered earthen cauldron. She kneels, removes it's lid and speaks into it.

"Little pot little pot 1,2,3. I need you to make Mother Meg's tea for me." She replaces the lid

She then carefully places several large linen cloths over the lid and pushes forward, into the barrier, slowly passing it through.

"The tea will heal internally if drunk. It can be used to clean and heal outward injuries as well. I suggest one before the other. Though the pot's contents will always be safe and fresh." she then pushed a very neatly folded stack of clothing forward and through the barrier, careful not to touch it herself.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 21, 2018 11:49 pm

"The wolf's stubborn, which is sometimes good," she sighs.

"Wait, you want me to wash in this?"
