"Oh , I talked to Mr. Viggo. I think we should keep him, even if I want to flatten him for encouraging Ellie or giving him the info she wanted to act. He seems to know what he's doing education wise. We should give him a chance."

Jess nods. "I know I put you in a difficult situation, asking you to tutor the childlings. I'll ask Mr. Viggo to stay."

"I should have been able to handle it. I've mentored before" She says "But .. I'm not skilled in her needs and I feel bad about that. Like i let her down"

Jessica shakes her head. "You came here to be her mentor within your House, not to tutor a pack of childlings. I overstepped."

"You needed help. I offered to, you took me up on it." She shruggs "I wouldn't be the first sidhe to fall to pride, and you aren't the first troll wanting to seize an opportunity to help as many as you could. It's okay, Countess. We both learned. And I plan to help still with the teaching somewhat."

Jessica nods. "Hopefully you'll be better able to mentor and guide Ellie. And, um, keep an eye on her."

"Oh my word yes. " A look "What about these new children? It could be sometime before they recover what they've lost fully. They won't be a matter of education but therapy and restoration."

"My thought is to see to thier bodies get them healed up and stable. Then we'll look at the rest."

"Well, this is the right hold for it. Restoration is Fenix's strong point"

She nods.

"That loose Dauntain though, have you sent word to the Duke yet? there needs to be a warningg all around, maybe a hunt, dangerous as that is"

"Yes, I sent word that same day and we have had surveillance going."

"Dangerous work but nessicary" She nods "You want me on those patrols or want me focusin on the children?"

"The childlings."

"Done" She says "Jack's probably a better hunter of Dauntain than I am anyway"

"No hunting the Dauntain." Jessica says very firmly. "Observe, report, evade, defend as a last resort."

A nod "if i have a vision about the Dauntain, I'll let you know. In fact I'll try to induce one"

((Clarify?))

"Dame, no need for that. If it comes, it comes."

"For something this important? It's probably best to give it a kick"
