Frank sighs. "Are you -going- to tell them?"

An uncomfortable look. "I...have to?"

Constance says "if I may?" the scribe troll says

"Well.... what happens when they find out on their own?" Frank points out. Jessica nods to Constance.

A blink and she looks at Constance.

"I'm the scribe for the hold. I was told there was an official matter I was missing and I should make due haste to record. It's all a matter of record not just for this hold, but for the organiztion I belong to which records acts of trollish herioism and crimes alike"

Sylvi's eyes widen and her jaw drops. "Records acts of....." She shakes her head.

Frank nods. "You know...I could take a copy of those notes."

"Well, it's important, Sylvi."

"I'll be happy to mae them for you, Mountain Frank. your own records are noted. I am Scribe Constance by the way. An honor to meet you all"

Siv facepalms "Sorry, Sylvi. I just wated her to record the ceremony"

Frank nods in greeting.

A sigh. "Now I'm going to have to hear how the whole thing was an absurd risk, or something like that." A wry grin to Jessica. "Well, at least you got the Hatchet."

"Yeah, but... if I have to pick, I'd rather have you, ok, Sylvi?" Some concern from Jess. "In one, breathing, piece."

"Oh now I want to go on another quest so folks will all be worried about me. Jealousy, so powerful..." Siv says a touch dramatically, then she smiles 'Okay. Over it. Dead bodies sound creepy"

"See, that's the sort of thing Dad's going to say," Sylvi says to Jess. "And then I'll have guilt."

"Da," Siv looks to her and Jessica's father, "You need to be there to make sure the Rover don't over react, he's your friend" As if to say and there for your responsibility

Frank puffs. "Right. I don't think that's how it works, Siv."

"Well, Sylvi, if you have guilt... maybe you've done something to be guilty for?"

Siv gives an embarrassed look to Sylvi as if to apologize as he results to typical parent logic

A groan, then a wan smile back to Jessica. "So...cool Hatchet, huh?"

"It really is, thanks Sylvi! Now.... " a sigh "... now I have to figure out how to hold a meeting with them."

Siv gives Sylvi a thumbs up.

And a tour continues....
