Hopefully, she's changed back already.

She finds a Doe pooka , and yep, it's Clem, not changed yet but perhaps about to "Howdy Doe, Chiefirino"

A grin. "Hi, Bambi. Or...Clem-bi? I hope you had fun."

"I was baaaaad" She says doing a sheep sound "But I can'th elp notice everything is on fire"

"Well, the kinain called Sally Mae, she brought me along as, I dunno, trollish authority?" A wry shrug. "And...it all worked out. And...um...about Herb and Eloise, I'm sorry-not-sorry. That needed to happen." Emmit's words seem to have bolstered her confidence that she did the right thing.

A brow... and perhaps it's the gesture, but Clem begins to change back, shifting from pooka to troll. In fact, Clem needs to steady herself as it happens

"Whoa! That was...okay, startling." She offers an arm to steady the Chief.

And Clem is back, "Oh wow. I am not going to get the taste of grass out of my mouth anytime soon" She says "Thank you for the helping hand.." SHe says as she looks at the arm helping her "And thank you for the helping hand. Mm yes, the Eloise Herb thing was going to come out eventually I suppose. Earl wanted me to keep it secret for everyone's protection, his mom, DeVere, Herb... but yes, it was time. " A nod

Sylvi blinks. "Earl knows? I thought...they were talking like he didn't."

"Oh, no secrets around Miss Zara somedays" Fondly "And Earl is not dumb. Yes, Earl knows"

"They're so worried about telling him and about how 'out' he wants to be. I guess it'll be a shock to them when he's lets them know he's in on the big scandal."

Clem smiles at something then says "It'll be all right. I think maybe it's time for me to start making a few more..elegant ways for couples and families to settle things without being afraid of some tradition banishing them. Don't you?"

"Like...establishing a tradition for going separate ways? Yeah, probably. Especially if both parties want to stay on the Farm."

A nod "Past time " SHe says "Somethings I'd have done different from what you did, but not better. Your future is your own to decide, Sylvi, but if you ever find yourself wearing the big hat at a hold or lodge, I think they'll be lucky to have you"

She blushes. "Coming from you, that's a real compliment, Chief. I'm just glad I could help. I can stick around if you need me to help untangle things, but then I should be getting home."

"I think I can handle the clean up . Did you eat at ALL yourself?" A brow

"Or did you forget to eat anything in the several hours you've been here?" Clem pushes

"I...ate. I'm sure I did. Yes." If there were a Gwydion present, it would be clear that she's not entirely sure. Then again, it might not require a Gwydion.

Clem says "Come on, let's at least get you a sandwich"

And she leads her, after putting the horse up, to Sally Mae "Sally Mae? You got fixins left enough for one retired Chieftain?" A look at Sylvi

A rueful grin. "I might have overlooked eating," she admits. And her stomach rumbles. "Hush, you."

"I've got just the thing" Sally Mae says "A hero sandwich for the hero"

She blushes again. "Well, thanks. You're the one that came up with the big idea."

"DeBuke skulls can be kind of thick" Clem says

Sally Mae hurumphs "Well, it all spooked ME thank you to." And she hands over the hero which Smells GOOD "Roast muttton slices, your favorite pickles... touch of tomato, and cheese..I think I got your favorite"

"Ohhh, it smells yummy. Excuse me while I channel my inner redcap." And she digs in.

"And just a hint of magic cookie" Sally Mae says after Sylvi's fifth bite

Eyes wide, she stops mid-chew. "You didn't."

And slowly Sylvi begins to glow

Sally Mae smirks "Relax... it promotes growth"

Clem rolls her eyes "Well that's great. I'm going to have to write a note to her mother now"

"Oh, geez...." A sigh, and she gets one last bite of the sandwich in before becoming....

...much smaller. And hairier. And her horns are smaller, and...."Ow?" She kicks of her boots, because they don't go well with hooves.

Well, she's quite the fetching satyress..

"A satyress?" Clem says "We might need to drop her off by Colton"

"Oooooooohhhh...." she stands up and tries out the new posture and balance and...."Wow, these tables are BIG." Then a smile.

Sally Mae mutters "Oops"

Troll reserve is shot.. the feels are sudden, strong, and.. pretty free!

"Oh! Could you? I mean, Clem, that would be the most amazing thing. You're the best. I mean it, you're...just awesome!" An impulsive hug.

A startled look then "Yes, let's do that I think" She hugs back then Clem chuckles "That poor boy. Satyr stamina."

"Oh, I should totally text him first. Or surprise him? Well, no, that's not fair, he needs serious warning about what's headed his way!" A happy laugh and she finds her cell phone and types a quick text: Cookie time! Headed your way, clear your schedule!

TXT: I uh.. okay?

"Sally Mae, you're a big sneak, and I love you for it!" The kinain gets a satyr hug as well.

TXT: ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Sally mae hugs back "Well... yes to both. Your mom may have my ass later but worth it"

"Well, it's a nice ass, so hopefully she won't be too hard on it. Okay, my boyfriend's waiting, gotta go!"

And soon, by hook or crook,the satyress is on her way to Darkgate. The farm? Well, it will survive, though some are confused where Hearth Agnes is... and Murray comes back as a troll muttering about Eshu being idiots. Embarrassment may linger, but the minds are a lot more open and Clem will consider it a mission worth doing

and done well
