[LOCKED TO THE GUARDIAN + IN THE MAILBOX FOR THE KORREDS]

I would like to request your assistance concerning an encounter between one of ours and the fae.

[OPEN, AUDIO]

I hope that everyone is alright. [Her low voice is gentle and motherly. Although slightly hesitant. It's hard to be alright after that, isn't it? After a pause, she adds: ]

I have often found comfort in nature. And a friend to lend an ear is always a gift. If you need to, you may come to the greenhouse and speak with me.

[It's okay, babbies....]

...in fact, we have other visitors here.

[The video turns on to show a row of potted plants. And at the last one, a small creature just darting out of sight.]

[ Jade is almost immediately distracted from the subject of dreams the moment she notices the small things. Her expression turns somewhere between surprise and awe, although it isn't visible on the feed. It clearly seeps into her voice though. ]

Wow..! What are those? They're in the greenhouse, really?

[audio]

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[!! Oh hi there. There's a small smile in Thereth's voice.]

I am not sure. But they do not seem malicious. I have seen a few of them appear over the past month.

[audio]

[whichofspace.livejournal.com]

They don't look like they're up to something bad, if you ask me..

... Oh! If it's okay, can I maybe come over to the greenhouse to look? I want to see them! I promise to be really careful!

[audio]

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

I would enjoy the company.

[audio] ACTIONING IT UP MAYBE?

[whichofspace.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'll be there in just a moment!

[ACTION :D]

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[Nyaa....Thereth will peek her head outside to wait. c: ]

[ action ]

[whichofspace.livejournal.com]

[ Jade enthusiastically dashes over when she sees-- oh. She's a giant cow.

This is so cool. ]

Hiii! [ She waves until she's finally right in front of Thereth. She's sort of out of breath, but is grinning contently. ] I told you I'd only take a moment!

[ action ]

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[Oh hello smaller creature c: Actually, Thereth is a little surprised that there's no surprise from Jade. Usually people here do a double take when meeting a giant cow. But she doesn't mind or anything.]

And you spoke the truth. What is your name, little one?

[ action ]

[whichofspace.livejournal.com]

Me..? Oh, I'm Jade, Jade Harley! Nice to meet you!

[ Still with that bright dopey grin. Get used to it, it's her default expression. ]

Um.. This might be a bit of a weird question, but are you really a sort of cow? [ Not that she seems fazed by this or anything - not at all - but it's still making her excited. ]

[ action ]

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[Thereth is totally ok with that expression ok ^o^ ]

What other sort would I be?

[ action ]

[whichofspace.livejournal.com]

[ Thereth is the best mama cow.. ]

Well, there's the kind of people who only dress up as cows instead of really being one! Isn't that just sooo silly?

And what would you have me do?

GUARDIAN

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

We would like to know the name of Maria's attacker.

[dat-guardian.livejournal.com]

And in recompense?

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

Name it.

[dat-guardian.livejournal.com]

Do you wish her true or her given name?

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

I wish to be able to find her.

[dat-guardian.livejournal.com]

Then search for her bower in the forest. Wear your crown. Carry iron. Do not go alone.

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[Hrmm...]

In what direction is this bower, Guardian? Is she susceptible to all the normal means of injury?

[dat-guardian.livejournal.com]

There are rules which must be followed in this land. We cannot magic cold iron. We cannot bend cause and causality.

Black Annis denies these rules. She will catch a sword of iron in her hands and suffer no damage. She will turn people into frogs and not allow their natural morphic field to re-assert itself. She will take and not give back and suffer no consequences.

Her black magic is fearsome. You must find a way to break a spell such as hers before you can begin to hurt her.

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[Oh hey you said more than ten words all together! Wow! She doesn't reply for a moment, because that's a lot to take in.]

...thank you for your assistance. [You're a bro, Guardian.]

Can you tell me anything else? And what price do I pay for this information?

I understand, and thank you for your time anyway. Please feel free to visit us again soon. ♥

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

What sort of creature is that?

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

I am uncertain. It looks similar to a butterfly, but the body is all wrong.

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

It looks somewhat human.

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

That it did. But most humans lack wings, do they not?

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

I haven't ever met one that did.

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

Neither have I. At least not permanent ones.

[Ryoji is hax 8| ]

Perhaps a nature spirit.

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

A spirit? I wonder if it's hostile...

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

I have met many who are. But this one seems to simply enjoy the plants.

I do worry about stepping on her, though.

[protectsfools.livejournal.com]

I also wouldn't want that to happen to her.

[sunstormed]

May I...come and join you?

[unholy-rebirth.livejournal.com]

[very warmly.]

I would be delighted if you did.
