"Maybe both?" And she's gone.

Changing is quick, and while she doesn't thinmk she'll need her maul, it feels good in her hands. She comes out only to run into Nancy.

The satyress, still unstained, has nonetheless become something of a friend. While she loves the hedonistic lifestyle of her kith , she also helps families on both sides of the border "We have guests?"

"Oh. Hello Nancy. Well, we'll see but yes. I think so."

"Anything I can do to help?" She asks then admits "I'm a bit bored. There is SO much I'm not 'supposed' to do while I'm unsained. It's making me feel antsy"

"Sorry about that but for what it's worth, that's the way everyone feels." Jessica glances towards the Balefire. "How about you come along, listen in?"

"Thanks!" relief, "Sorry, everyone? mmph. " she adds "I'll try to be quiet..."

"Maureen and Morris- requesting permission to goof off in the Fenix bale cause they're near tapped" A redcap voice booms. To his credit, he's a BIT quieter than usual.

Jessica sighs quietly and calls. "Request granted."

Maureen comes forward with her brother by her side, and bows "Freeholder? Thank you. I..." A blink, "Have we met?" Jessica did hide her face, a LOT during that encounter

"I don't think we've been introduced." She agrees, standing. "I'm Calpulhe Jessica King. That's like... a baroness. Maureen and Morris? Welcome to Fenix. How can we help?"

"We're a little low on glamour, and in danger of forgetting ourselves, " Morris says, "Just spot for the night heated by the balefire would do wonders for us. Thank you. And the fellow who told us about this place was right."

Jessica nods. "Granted, of course."

"He said you were lovely,"Morris said, "I thought he just meant on the outside. Thank you"// "Pardon my brother, Selkie's lean towards the romantic and flowery" The clurichaun says

"Trolls do not."

"What brings you to Fenix, other than the obvious?"

"hopefully a new home" The Clurichaun says "We need one not too far from the shore, and Tijuana while having a reputation for danger, seemed promising. My brother and I both enjoy the shore, but as a Selkie he needs it"//Morris nods

"Sunkissed has more shoreline." She points out factually.

"Yes, but it also has Varich and theyh're an unknown factor to be honest" Mauren says, then frowns "Pardon, Chapleh, but are you discourging us from settling in your fief?"

"No. But given your purpose, I thought I'd offer a better answer. You're welcome here."

"Thank you" She says//"Clurichauns on the other hand can be tempermental" morris opines "We'll consider both, but this is lovely." Glancing about the hold "There's a sense of healing to it"

"It is a place of healing." She confirms. "Are you in need of such?"

"No no, thank you, we're not hurt" Morris says//"Is any spot allowed or is there a particular area in the hold you'd like us to rest? And..can we offer some service?" Maurren says

Jessica does her best Chieftain impression. "We can provide you space, and if you like to stay near the 'Fire you may. We'd welcome your stories, if you wish to share, or whatever you can contribute.

"Stories we can do" She beams "I shall give some around supper for your folk, and I know they'll be pleased."

"Thank you." She nods gravely.

"I'll lead them to a good place to rest with your permission?" Nancy offers "I have the time."

"Thank you, Nancy, yes." To the newcomers. "Please go with Nancy, she'll settle you in."

"tthis way" She says "Really, all the rooms are surprisingly cozy I think it's the healing magics at play..." ANd off the three go

Phobos watches em go "Mm Nancy's almost as good as me at this meet and greet stuff"

"That's a good point, Phobos." She muses.

She notices at the corner of the throne room , Duff waits. Now that she's avaible, they might talk in private.

With the newcomers safely tucked up, she comes down and over to Duff.

Duff smiles "you got away with it. I can't believe they didn't recognize you. I would never not." He takes her hands "You wanted to talk?" ANd unless she says otherwise, they go off to do just that

(End Scene)

(Some talking, yes.)
