"So am I to understand something in this area might suit you?" Snowmantle inquires

Brekke glances to Frank, then nods. "Something not too far from other fae, but also not too close. We appreciate our privacy."

"You WILL have to be careful, Chimera are a bit wilder here at times" He says "But then, as it is you two, I suppose you're ready for it"

That definitely gets an interested response from Brekke. "I hope we are, but I will not presume it to be so. We will need to know which chimera, if any, are off limits due to local custom, of course."

"The Pugwii tribes are sensible and understand the need for self defense, but I can get you a list of what's more precious to them. There is one they treasure as a bringer of fish, but that stays on the ocean shores."

"Ah. We will need to advise Siv of this for when she arrives by ship."

Frank nods.

Snowmantle nods, and says "Now, privacy shouldn't be a problem with the acreage you'll have from mortals, but kithain who come here can get frisky now and then. No threat to the Escheat, but Eshu often wander as they will, and Pooka maybe tempted to prank. Fortunately we have troll thanes who do much of the work to keep the peace in my barony." He looks with pride over the lands about them, "Wild life here is exquisite"

"We will not mind some visitors, I think, but we do seek quiet solitude among this beauty," she says indicating the lands of which he is justly proud.

"That said, we do expect visitors."

"I will spread word. I do hope you visit my hold now and then, it should help make you not seem too aloof to the locals, just private"

"Mm." Brekke nods. A recluse by nature, she is taking that bit of advice seriously.

Frank nods as well.

"As for your guests, if you have more than you can host, let me know and if they be kithain I'll offer them hospitality for the night while they visit you during the day. This way, I'll show you the rainbow stream..."
