((This is Ash, right?)

OOC: YUP

"No, that's ok. Thank you, Dame Ash. That's..... this is good information."

"I wish I had more.. Eiluned and Gwydion knights with extreme prowess traveling together as freelances. "

She thinks about it. "Perhaps they challenge each other as well as meeting challenges?"

"Or they're already paid and on a mission. One here.. under the pretense of being for hire? I don't know"

"Then.....I suppose I should speak with them. Can you bring them to the Balefire?"

"They'll want to know the occasiion" She says "Any particular excuse you want me to give?"

"Because I said so?"

"Troll leadership is rather cut and dry I'm learning" She nods and goes

Jess goes to her Balefire, and settles in. Her fingertips drift in the 'Flames, and she gets a good feel for how the County goes....

Beltaine is winding down, Tidemarch's barony , as ever, seems reluctant to open up... and she sees shadows play across it.. here is where the Unseelie huddle..at least, the noble houses.

She sees an image of a young hand out reached towards the flame

and then it's gone.

The Skyhook holding is, as ever, abuz with activity, but it definitely has a more summer bent. Many feeling their Seelie side as the base for their work. Some objects will be shining with the beauty only masters can bring

Jessica exhales, finding focus and purpose in the vision. She waits to see what the knight-brothers say.

And they enter, and bow. It is MacTyre who speaks, "We were told you wished to see us, your Excellency?"

Gelach nods at that (after the bow)

She beckons them closer. "Please come closer, and take a seat. Tell me about yourself."

"I'm Mactyre. This is Gelach. We're knights" The Golden haired sidhe says "We travel."

They do take seats. She notices Gelach chooses one with its back to the wall

"Why are you here in Renaissance?"

"There was an open Beltaine celebration, and may I say, it was lovely. You wouldn't know it by my companion's dour expression, but we both had an excellent time and were glad to help with the charity drive. I hope you get those textbooks." he offers.

"We will." She seems sure. "Thank you for your contribution."

"Our pleasure," MacTyre says

"Ignorance grown too far is an agent of Banality" Gelach says simply... looking thoughtful.

The chimes do not ring. These men are not Balor in other House colors

Jessica nods carefully.

"I am glad you enjoyed your time here."

"Thank you, your excellency. " MacTyre says "I can't speak for others but the crowds seemed to share our opinion there. "

"Excuse me."

Jessica rises and steps away, looking for someone to serve as a messenger?

"Would you like us to withdraw? It's no trouble" MacTyre says

Gelach nods "you're likely very busy"

"No, please stay."

PHobos shows up "Boss? "

"Phobos, please request Dame Mitra's presence here. Now. Please."

The childlings set up in the hallway - out of sight, but within hearing range

"Oh, sure... off to the Pitt then" he bows "Not a problem"

"Thank you." Jessica returns to the brothers-errant.

They don't seem related, but they have an almost sibling like comraderie

Ellie definitely sees Phobos.. and overhears him "Mitra? Huh...not like they'll sit still and let Moony cast her time magic on em"

It's meant to be a mutter... but it was right next to the kids

Oh, THAT is an idea.

"Ariel, let me have those jacks..."

"Sure.. your pass"

She concentrates... 12... 11... 10.... working BACKWARDS.

The Eiluned before Jessica twists his head as if hearing a something loud

but there is no sound

So - what DID the girls miss, in the moments before?
