"Well, she's a Gwydion right? Can't you get a note from her saying she's done the 'nosey gift of truth' on you and believes you? Then it's not just your word, it's your word and hers together "

"I wouldn't presume to ask her..."

"Fine. I will ask."

She rubs the back of her neck. "For the Barony. I'll ask."

A smile, and she touches Sparrow's arm. "Thank you."

"I could ask, but I'm Ailil," Claire says "Frankly, I'm a bit alarmed that the Unseelie Houses are getting out numbered here." A wink

"You'll manage."

Dramatic sigh

"Look, the sedative cream really added the right amount of flavor" Shalimar says as the baron passes out painfree

Coradel breathes a sigh of relief on seeing the Baron resting. "Good. I'm sure the funny faces helped, Shalimar."

Soon, she moves out of the room with the other Truthbranches & Claire.

"Come on, Cora. Rest for you, too."

And off they go, to rest. Guards are posted. Shailmar takes a stool near the bed, in skunk form.

One of the Thanes thinks of moving him...but then the tail goes up, they leave him be. He can guard too

And the Truthbranches and Claire head out to plan, plot, and hold it all together. Oh, and sleep would be good.
