Fangwulf: *It seems different than last month. The rectangular tables are still out, but in a somewhat different design. Within the main hall, there are tapestries out, and perhaps Lady Wallace has determined this will be a Meeting House for all Sidhe. The Tapestries, one for each house, though perhaps more elaborate. The only one that seems missing is the Silver Unicorn. The Dragon, of course, being on the back wall, and larger than the others. The Ruling house, as she sees fit.*

Fangwulf: *As for the actual room, seats are put out, the tables, it seems, lessened, and more arranged for a proper meeting. The first, being an obvious and extremely outgoing call for power. This one... perhaps she is trying to look as the social elite. There are hors d'oeuvres out, and most of them quite classy. Only a couple of the boggan servants out.*

Fangwulf: *There are representatives, too, at least one, from every House. Every house that matters, anyway. Even Balor seemed kind enough to send a representative. And gaguing by the odd head-spines, one would hope that he is sane.*

Fangwulf: ((And it seems that Rav is busy. He can join in a bit later, though.))

Fangwulf: ((Go ahead and start arriving peeps.))

Moira Connolly: Pampered and elegantly dressed as always, even though she has no real title its no excuse for her to look shabby. he gown was slim with lace panals over satin Black and silver being her color scheme. her hair done up tonight with a few framing curls. she moves up to the doors and looks around once she is inside.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine arrives, tonight in her normal choice in vehicle... a expensive black sports car that is left nearby the Freehold. Tonight though she is dressed in a designer pantsuit for her Mortal seeming and full armor complete with her sword for her Fae seeming. She stands there on the sidewalk to wait for her companion tonight to get out of the car as well.

Morgan Beaumaris: Morgan steps out, dressed in her black leather outfit and her hound moves out too behind her.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine then leads them inside after giving a quick look around outside. Once inside she looks around calmly and takes it all in.

Fangwulf: *A boggan of course approaches Morgan and offers water for her fine Hound. Each one is announced as they enter. Formal informal formalities. Try saying THAT ten times fast.*

Corinne Braddock: ((Here now. I hate people.))

Morgan Beaumaris: She is polite to the boggan when water is offered, and thanks them.

Moira Connolly: She looks around for where she is supposed to be seated, which is most likely with the lower titles. She looks around to see who else is there.

Fangwulf: *There does not seem to be assigned seating. The Lady herself is out mingling.*

Corinne Braddock: She arrives just a touch fashionable late...any Fiona must make an entrance, of course. She's dressed in a crimson, full-length dress with a neckline low enough to draw the eye, yet not so low as to be vulgarly scandalous...just "regular" scandalous. Her dark hair is worn up by a silver lion clasp with a few coiled strands strategicly placed free of the rest to brush her neck and direct attention there by their conspicuousness, and silver is the color of the chain that holds the ruby teardrop necklace that rests against the top of her breastbone. On her feet are heeled sandals, the same silver as the rest of the accessories of her outfit. When she's announced, she smiles and looks around, nodding to those who meet her gaze, and looks about the place before moving to take a seat.

Morgan Beaumaris: She'll be sitting with Katherine. For now she looks around and takes it all in.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine looks to Corinne when she is announced and nods to the Fiona before turning and moving to one of the tables and takes a seat.

Fangwulf: *Poor Corinne. It seems she is the only one of her House there.*

Moira Connolly: She sees Katherine and and Morgan she would join them if invited to but doubtless, she takes a random seat otherwise.

Corinne Braddock: She notes that she is the only Fiona present with a slight quirk of her lips, then graces Katherine with a smile before she settles down with a glass of wine.

Morgan Beaumaris: She takes a seat as well, the hound following and laying at her feet under the table.

Fangwulf: *So much servitude done by so few Boggans. But then again, that IS their purpose, isn't it? Again, the meeting portion of this gathering seems important. The Lady of the hour is just a social creature. Charming. Dashing. Debonair.*

Katherine Coventry: Katherine doesn't drink or eat anything, for now just taking in the various guests and waits.

Fangwulf: *Very few are sitting. The Balor. And the Sidhe from the first gathering, the one who did not introduce himself.*

Corinne Braddock: She looks over to the nearby Katherine from her seat and smiles warmly. "A pleasure to see you again. How are you?"

Moira Connolly: She looks around slowly studying more so than anything. although it seems she is more just waiting her eyes looking to where the Lady is and the Balor, then to Morgan and Kathrine and the one approaching them. Someone she didn't know.

Katherine Coventry: "Well enough, and yourself?" she asks casually after looking between the Balor and Unkown. Her focus then settles on Corinne.

Morgan Beaumaris: Morgan is even more unusually quiet this evening, giving Corrine a polite nod but nothing more. She too isn't interested in food or drink at the moment.

Corinne Braddock: "Quite well, thank you." Her smile gorws a bit more pleasant, and she sips her wine. "Business ventures are proving quite equitable as of late." She follows Katherine's gaze to the two other sitting Sidhe, then back. "I imagine this shall prove rather interesting...first meeting and all."

Fangwulf: *Ladu Alsun Wallace ni Ailil, of course, makes her way past the small group. It is rude to interrupt. She makes her way to the head of the table. The Unknown is sipping at tea, it seems.*

Fangwulf: *The Balor himself is closer to Moira. He nods once to her, in greeting. Young enough that his mind is not gone.*

Moira Connolly: She nods to the passing lady her eyes more focused to the unknown.

Corinne Braddock: She looks up and smiles to Lady Wallace, nodding to her respectfully, before looking back to Katherine.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine glances to Alsun as she makes her way past, looking back to Corinne and nodding once more. "One should hope." she says with a slight hint of a grin.

Fangwulf: *Lady Wallace is smooth on the floor. She smiles to all and greets with a graceful wave, before she finds her seat next to the Unknown. She sighs, and sits down. And of course, those standing start to find seats.*

Moira Connolly: She returns the nod towards him polite with a slight curl of her lips

Katherine Coventry: Katherines eyes turn back to Alsun as she gets comfortable, raising an eyebrow slightly about something before frowns a littls and looks to Morgane and then over to Corinne briefly.

Corinne Braddock: The unknown gets a warm smile and a subtle nod of her head, before she sits back, straight against the chair, and sips her wine.

Morgan Beaumaris: Morgan looks to the unknown, having focused again upon her surroundings again, and gives him a cordial smile and nod. Then she looks back to Katherine.

Fangwulf: *Settling seems to happen everywhere. Alsun's smile is still intact, and she waits. She seems pleasant enough, though therein is the power.*

Fangwulf: *Surprisingly enough, the Sidhe sipping at his tea gives a respectful nod, albeit a cold one, in Corinne's direction.*

Fangwulf: *Morgan's response is, perhaps a bit more blunt, but still there, as his attention returns to Alsun, merely waiting.*

Corinne Braddock: Once the nod is returned, she turns her eyes to Alsun, sipping her wine once more before setting it down and waiting.

Morgan Beaumaris: She folds her hands in her lap and waits for the meeting to start.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine finally turns her focus to Alsun and waits as well.

Moira Connolly: Her focus on Alsun curious as to what news there would be. she seemed relaxed.

Fangwulf: Good, everyone is here, *she says pleasantly enough.* Good evening, one and all. Some familiar faces. Others... have traveled from quite some distance, and I thank you all for your troubles.

Corinne Braddock: She smiles and nods, accepting the gratitude graciously.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine nods slightly, but doesn't say anything else while she listens.

Fangwulf: *Morgan's dog's water dish is refilled; the boggans remain quiet through Alsun's words. Cleaning up. Barely noticeable.* This City has now been under our glorious banner for thirty turns of the sun. The Waking of The Edge of the World is complete. Its guardian keeps the Mortals away. Our security is complete. *She takes a deep breath, and slides around the side of the chair, Around back, leaning on it.* The one thing I would most like to know, however, is of our involvement with this so-called Treaty that protects the rights of those Supernaturals. We have not become involved with it yet, as it is a weapon that can be used against us. We have some mutual and old allies among those. However... there are some of our own that battle the Dark. This subject is the first of many that shall be open for debate.

Katherine Coventry: She just looks around, not seeming inclined to really say anything on the subject as she sits there and sighs a little once more. Looking about perhaps to gauge the crowd and how they seem to be feeling on this but her own feelings guarded.

Corinne Braddock: She raises her eyebrow, and leans forward just a bit. "I would say that I am in support of it, in a general fashion. I have dreamers, after all, and I would not have them become prey to the Prodigals."

Fangwulf: *The first to speak seems the Balor, who raps his knuckles on the table.* As speaker for those of the Warriors against the Dark, *he growls, his voice gritty, monstrous. As if he challenges anyone to speak of his people.* I say no. We do not need this additional protection. Those involved are not all our allies, nor were they ever meant to be.

Fangwulf: *Well... the second to speak, anyway.*

Morgan Beaumaris: Morgan stays very quiet, listening and keeping any of her feelings to herself right now.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine just watches and listens dispassionately.

Corinne Braddock: She smiles to the Balor. "We are not all warriors, Sir. And while I have no doubt that you would acquit yourself admirably in such a contest, I cannot claim to be sure of the same, personally. Nor would those I rely upon."

Moira Connolly: "what is the exact terms of the treaty, and what can we have that can be of use to us beside some extra protection?"

Fangwulf: *The Unknown finishes off his tea, and then stands. His voice is clipped, British, as always.* It seems a shady business deal, aligned on their end moreso on ours. They would know of us. And our benefit, as always, is secrecy. This... Treaty would only benefit the Commoners. However. *He looks up, and sharply.* If we tell them this, we may control the flow of information to our benefit, share our powers in ways that may create rumours. Beliefs. The lie spread to further our legend. In that, we can reap the rewards. *He takes another seat, and looks to a boggan.* Are you quite a dolt? My tea should have been refilled before I sat down.

Fangwulf: *Alsun nods to Moira.* An excellent point. So far, the control of the Treaty seems in the hands of the Concerto, an upscale club. The terms seem... reasonable enough. Do not prey, which we do not. And if we are preyed upon, the balance will be maintained.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine turns her eyes to each person as they speak. A hint of a smirk though as she hears from the Unknown finally but she still just continues to sit and listen.

Corinne Braddock: She quirks a brow, listening to the unknown, and leans back to consider it. A slight nod when Alsun briefly explains the Treaty.

Moira Connolly: "and what is their defention of Preying...sorry about my many questions. "

Fangwulf: *She smiles briefly.* I am afraid I do not know the whole of it. I have not seen all the words, to the letter as of yet. Though from what my sources have heard, It is when one uses their... skills on us. Mortals are not involved. I would have to ask if our Dreamers would be covered. *She looks back to Corinne.* But I would have to assume so to get involved.

Corinne Braddock: She nods a little and raises a hand to her lips, considering. "The involvement of Dreamers would be a crucial point, I think. One that, if we do as a group decide to get involved, we should push for."

Katherine Coventry: Katherine actually sighs some and just shakes her head slightly before finally looking to Morgane and just shrugs slightly.

Morgan Beaumaris: She shrugs a little back to Katherine, about the only reaction she shows.

Moira Connolly: "well are we to assume that we know who is who, accdent do happen. Unless they have some little chimerial Hello do not prey on me sign on them do they?" she grins slightly.

Fangwulf: *She chuckles at Moira's comment.* No, I do not believe they do. However... we can assume that should there be action, we are allowed to defend ourself. As our enemies coincide with some, we will interact with others. We have no choice in this matter.

Corinne Braddock: "An excellent question, Lady." She nods to Moira, pausing a moment as she sees Katherine and Morgan's reactions, before looking back to Moira. "One that could also bear to be clarified."

Corinne Braddock: "Lady Katherine..." She looks to the woman nearby, giving a charming smile. "What do you think on the matter?"

Katherine Coventry: Katherine looks back over towards Corinne and shrugs slightly. "There are too many unknowns when it comes to this Treaty and what it entails. It will also take far more then a single night to decide. We are not being hunted and revealing more of ourselves to the Treaty members is a risk I do not feel is in our best interests." she says confidently.

"Our Dreamers are not their buisness either. Glamor is free after all and how do we expect them to be protected? Those of our blood? Perhaps but it is still too risky to reveal too much about ourselves. I do admit though that I am curious about the Prodigels, I for one do not see any of them as equals that we should be meeting them at a table to seek protection from then and them from us. What else is there to discuss this evening?" she asks looking towards Alsun.

Fangwulf: *Ahhyes. Attention brought. Alsun looks to Katherine and Morgan pleasantly. The Unknown does not look, but he does smile, sipping his tea.*

Fangwulf: *Alsun merely smiles.* This topic is not a dead one yet, Lady Katherine. I will send someone to investigate this Treaty with more completion and will have details within a week's time.

Katherine Coventry: "I never suggesed that it was a dead topic, just not one to be fully addressed now. Before we can fully discuss it all the facts should have been brought before us." she says flatly to Alsun with a steady gaze.

Fangwulf: *Alsun's eyes do not waver from Katherine's, nor does she cease smiling.* You had implied it, Lady Katherine. By your words of switching to another topic. If, by all means, you wish to control this discussion...

Corinne Braddock: She nods a little, smiling. "Some excellent points, Lady Katherine. We can discuss it more in-depth later, perhaps, when we have the necessary details." When Katherine and Alsun start conversing, she falls silent, listening to the two.

Katherine Coventry: "I merely asked a question so that we might know if there would be something more fruitful to discuss. I can see though how you would make such a mistake." and she smiles slightly back to the woman.

Fangwulf: Mistake? *She arches an eyebrow.* I never make a mistake. And I never misunderstand ambition for anything else. *She looks away from Katherine.* Any other questions?

Morgan Beaumaris: ((I'm sorry...I'm wiped out....I'm not sure of a good way to take Morgan out without looking bad. So since she's been so silent, just assume she listens quietly, maybe just fades out thinking of some new song she's composing and leaves with Katherine.))

Katherine Coventry: Katherine chuckles slightly actually and just shakes her head before looking to the Unknown and then around to the others at the gathering.

Fangwulf: *The Unknown simply smiles, and sips at his tea. Not interrupting. No one else seems to speak, as the small power outburst seems to have them quiet. Even the Balor.*

Moira Connolly: Moira watch like one would a teniss match.

Fangwulf: ((S'okay Uk. Sorry it went so late.))

Corinne Braddock: She leans forward, smiling a bit and and looking between the two. Peace-making. "I am ready to progress." Said in a way to give Katherine an out from actually responding, without actually speaking for her.

Katherine Coventry: Katherine doesn't seem inclined to say anything else as she goes back to waiting once more.

Fangwulf: *Alsun nods, but her mood seems somewhat diminished.* I belive we are finished for this night. Alliance was the true cause of this meeting. And the question of such. I shall discuss this with my eyes, and I will spread qord as soon as I know better what is in store for us.

Fangwulf: (qord-word)

Katherine Coventry: She looks to Alsun once more and just shrugs her shoulders as she stands up. "How enlightening." she says to no one in particular.

Moira Connolly: "thank you for the information" she says politely a glance to the Balor curious, but information would have to wait for another time she guesses.

Corinne Braddock: She nods politely to Alsun and then prepares to rise, once Alsun has. She who holds the meeting rises first.

Fangwulf: *The Balor actually stands first, and he seems... quite annoyed. That he can't hide. He takes slow strides towards the front door, and slams it behind him.* *Alsun herself moves towards the door behind, and she seems thoughtful. The Unknown himself finishes off his tea, and taps the side of his glass. He seems to be waiting until everyone leaves.*

Moira Connolly: She nods to the unknown.

Fangwulf: *He does not seem to note anyone. He focuses on his tea.*

Katherine Coventry: The Knight turns on her heel and moves towards the foor finally after giving others a chance to move on. She doesn't seem preturbed or anything, but perhaps a hint of ammusement when she does start towards the door with Morgan in tow.

Corinne Braddock: She rises finally now, giving a nod to the Unknown, even if it is not returned. A smile to Katherine, and one to Moira.

Fangwulf: ((A'ight, now I'm gonna go collapse. thanks so much! An Ash, thank Uktena for showing!))

Moira Connolly: ((thank you for running Fang))

Corinne Braddock: ((Night, Fang! Thanks for the scene! *Hugs*))

Moira Connolly: ((*pops into the ooc*))

Katherine Coventry: (will do)

Katherine Coventry: Katherine gets out side, glances around before making her way towards her car. Nodding to Corinne once more and even smiling a touch to the woman on the way.

Corinne Braddock: She smiles to Katherine as she slips outside. "Well, I would say my previous statement was accurate. This was interesting."

Katherine Coventry: "Yes, it was." she says in agreement with Corinne.

Corinne Braddock: A light sigh. "Well...that aside, how have you been?" She smiles, making some small talk before her own car arrives.

Katherine Coventry: "Well enough." she says, then looks to Morgane. "I hope things conitnue to go well for you but I should be going." and she smiles a little again.

Corinne Braddock: "Of course," she says with a smile and nod. "I hope to see you again. It was too long, this time. Have an excellent evening."

Katherine Coventry: "Thank you, and till next time we meet." and then after a final look back to the freehold she gets in her car and leaves out with Morgan. ((Take care!)

Corinne Braddock: ((You too!))
