***********************

(Another day but not far off ahead) Jessica has been distracted perhaps helping a certain Sidhe fight Bedlam. Shifts are taken, work load increases to take up slack, but it works. So far she's got it all under...

"YOUR DAD IS HERE!" Phobos bellows "ALONG WITH OTHERS"

She looks up from the paperwork with a frown. "What??" Rising, she heads for the door.

Sylvi mutters to Siv, "I might start using that Emissary title all the time. So much better than 'and Other.' "

Siv smirks "Should we step on his toes as we pass by?"

Sylvi smirks back. "You can if you want to. You're the sister, after all."

"Dad?" from down the hall, and Frank responds "Jess, we're here. Siv and Sylvi and I."

Jessica appears, and smiles. "Well Hi!" She offers her hand.

"Ow.." Phobos glares//"Oops clumsy me" Siv says though she does avoid the redcap's gaze

"Siv." reproving.

A bright smile from Sylvi. "Hey, Jess!" She's grown over the summer, and more clearly a wilder than a childling.

Sheepish look at her dad, then she grins at Jessica "Sis! " A hug if no one takes that had shake

The offered hand turns into hugs for all. "Great to see you guys! Jeeze, you're getting taller. Well, not you, Dad."

Sylvi hugs back happily when it's her turn. "How are you? Everything okay?"

"Well.... yes. I mean, you're always putting out fires, right?" Jess responds. Frank surreptitiously checks her over.

"Yeah..." Sylvi says, and she seems to want to say something more, but she redirects. "This place is beautiful."

"Thanks! Come on, I'll show you around.... hey, did you bring stuff? Bags?"

"Oh, Sylvi is not just Sylvi ..." Siv turns, "Allow me to introduce to you, all the way from Rivervale, the Emmisary Sylvi Starbrow, for the stars of the north has she seen, and now the ones of the Feathered Serpent as well. She comes on matter of some import"

Jessica grins. "That's right! Well, -Emmisary-..." She stresses the word. "Allow me to show you our Freehold?"

Sylvi, obligingly, facepalms.

But she's not really embarrassed, and nudges Siv with a grin before following Jessica. She affects a hoity-toity tone and posture. "Oh, please do!"

Siv just grins and winks Sylvi's way

Siv looks to her dad and whispers "it's important to her, da"

"Good grief." Jessica mutters as she leads the gang into the Holding.

"It should be." Frank rumbles. "Being an Emmisary and being a Freeholder, both."

Siv follows and waves at some of the guys close to her age

Jessica gives them a tour of the highlights, calling 'Pants!' before going into the Springs.

"Pants?" Siv says "Geez you're strict, sis" Joking

"Mmm." She responds with a glance at Frank.

Frank frowns, but says nothing.

Sylvi is a bit agog at the opulence of it all.

Siv is also staring, as might be expected, the water parts intrigue her... "there's magic in the water? not just the fire it's..oh."

Jessica nods. "The Springs have healing properties."

"And it feels good too.. uhm.. Sis, you won't mind if I use this in my stay?" hopeful

"Not at all! Might want to ask Fontaine, though, too."

"I will"

"Ok, so... let's get you settled and we can get something to eat if you want?"

"Or... I don't know... what do you want to do?"

"Well...um..." Sylvi glances between all of them. "I do have something kind of official I need to do, and I can't really think about anything else until I get it done, but I don't want to be rude or pushy about it..." An apologetic tone.

"No, not at all. Do you want to do this at the Balefire?"

Siv is whispering to one of the Thanes something

"I...um...maybe. Yeah, actually, I think that's a good idea."

The thane looks cuirous, then nods and goes.

"Ok, come this way...." She leads them in and takes her seat. "Ok, so... Emissary, over to you. Welcome to Renaissance, and Fenix."

Constance comees out returning with the Thane. She has pen and paper at the ready

Sylvi smiles, and gives a little bow. "Thank you, Calpuleh Fuego Libre." She's clearly been practicing that. Then she clears her throat. "You know I went to Alaska this summer. While I was there, I met some Nunnehi. I figured that if I got to know them, even if the tribes are very different, I might be able to help you with the tensions you have down here with Nunnehi, from what I've heard anyway. But...I have something even better than that..." She reaches into the back of her belt and brings out a simple hatchet that glimmers faintly with glamour.

Jessica tilts her head curiously.

The scribe scribbles all this down, Siv smiles at that, but then grows quite serious as Sylvi does her stuff

the Guards however start to move as a weapon is drawn, "what the hell?" Demos, the other redcap reaches for a weapon
