"Which would you like more ye think?"

"Oh, either!"

"Ha" Siv says "Maybe we'll flip a coin. DeBukes Farm is probably safer to our folks way of thinking"

"Well... I liked the Farm..."

"Well, then we go there first. Warning, we might get put to work" Siv says "The older DeBukes see empty hands, they put them to use"

"Like I'm not used to that..."

"Think Sylvi would wanna go?"

"Not sure, she found some closure, but it still might hurt. But we should ask, yes" Agreement

A frown. "Yeah..."

"Nothing but time, I'm told" Siv says "Doesn't make it easier"

"I guess."

"Come on," A pat "You're sained, she found the mace, we're on a winning streak here. "

"True! Think they'll be okay with me being... you know?"

"I wouldn't adertise the title much. I mean, they'll HEAR about it, but best nto to use it. I mean, they consider my mom a friend despite her being a baroness but she's Chieftain Brekke there"

"Well, I'm not about to start bossin' just because I have a title now. I mean, it's not like I did anything in particular to earn it."

"Not in this life, but I bet in the past you did" She says "Sides, plenty of sidhe didn't either"

"Well, yeah. But I'm still Dagmar, is all. I don't want to be treated weird."

"I promise to tease you now and then like always" Siv says "And you can roll your eyes when I get gooey about my boyfriend, like always" A smile

"Totally. Okay, so... the bridge?"

"Right, we just cross it and it's actually easy as pie. " She says

"Just... walk?"

"Walking on trods is... it's like reading a really good book, you open just one page, then another, and the next thing you know, you're whisked away on a journey."

After a check on Sylvi - and a note left - Dagmar heads with Siv to the bridge. "So. One foot and...." STEP.

And there is a sensation, unlike any she can really be sure of and then ..a flash of silver, a great bridge of argent beauty over a river wild and free.... stay on the silver, and the silver stays with her.. and.. Off to the farm
