[QUOTE="CPaladin, post: 8253313, member: 7030144"] Session 40 (September 8, 2008) 29 O-Kas Remaining items on the to-do list: Check out throne (this is in a physical/magical, examine the throne to see if it has any powers, secrets, etc., sense) Meet with the ambassador from the fey to discuss the changeling in the nursery Meet with Lord Silverleaves re the sea elf Get a report from the lobes on Simbolisi We send word to the fey ambassador that we want to meet with him. We find him in one of the outer waiting rooms, painting a mural on the wall “It emanates an aura of peace” We have discovered a fey changeling in the nursery. “That’s a good place for it.” They go off to take a look at her. The fey ambassador makes some of the stuffed animals animate. “She is not from our Tor, although she is from our side. Troubling, troubling, troubling… Was there a baby exchanged?” No “then there is only one explanation. Her parents are on the run.” “She is not a sidhe. She will probably grow up to be a brownie. But her parents are probably either being chased by either an unseelie sidhe, or some earthly power that could threaten them. “If she is without sept or tor, then there is nothing that can protect her except her parents’ magic.” (Kit alludes to the here’ku, without using the name.) What about the parents? We’re happy to protect the child. “I could perform a great divination if you would like. That will take three chickens. Becky rolls crap, a 10, 3, and 5 (27, 20, 22). “There is something trying to oppose my will. But I can tell you right now, I don’t think the wee bairn’s parents will be coming back. There is no stench of the unseelie. They came from the east of here, with no sept or tor—that is rare. This was athwart their path. Dame Brionna rants about how they penetrated. “Do you suppose the house brownies might have let them in?” A: will there be a head brownie? Oh no, just a collection of families. A patriarch or matriarch? “There might be a family head. If you wish to speak with them, you will need to go to the kitchen and cry three times, “Nobs, nobs, nobs.” But don’t go spreading that about.” A: asks the ambassador to warn the rest of the fey. “there is quite a bit of our blood among your people, although not as much as further east. A: In the Eastern Trade Federation? “Aye. There were two weak septs that basically dissolved into the human population there. (We ask the ambassador to not accompany us, for fear that he would intimidate the brownies.) [cont'd] [/QUOTE]
