"Ah... well.. I am used to being self-sufficient with food."

"Oh. " A nod.

"What other schools are you looking at?"

"Well, only so many of them have libraries I would be interested in. Thought about Columbia... furking place is big enough to havei t all covered and it' a Good college"

Bachdion tilts his head "What about the University of Miami Beach?"

"I want an education, not a tan" The nocker snorts

"Aye. And, well, all of New York at your fingertips. Goblin Town, Tara Nar, the Met Library..."

"Yeah, it's pull I won't deny it... but frankly? Nockers outside the family do't always see what I do as craftin, you know? Not as important anyway. There's no book guild...even though they're furkin ougthabe" She huffs "And so Goblin town? Not sure I want to visit that much"

"Ah, no? I thought all the bigwigs were there.. but then... who wants to be buried in bigwigs? Many good schools in the city. But, of course, it's the city. Loud. Crowded."

"Truth. I think I might want somewhere a bit quieter..."

There are ghosts in some buildings, she can feel it.

A quiet thrill and a fleeting grin.

"Yeah, as longas you won' get bored...and nothing saying you can't visit, or use the trods like I do."

"I do hope there's a convenient one. The drive is only about an hour home... but..."

"You're from where again?" Zenobia says

"Scarsdale. You?"
