The Cereal Box:Log/Session 54
Session 54
Sephie evaluated Jack back at the home, and determined that it would take 3 weeks for Jack to recover and, without further magical assistance, it would be unlikely that he would ever get completely back to normal. He decided to call in based on this.
Sunday, June 6th
Hestia is reading a book and keeping Jack company; she is suffering guilt from her feelings of responsibility for Jack's condition.
Alana and Sephie played with cats to try to train them further, teaching them exceptionally.
Ernie works on his Roundup gun, but realized that he needed additional equipment for it... and got pretty serious about, using a two-stroke engine from a weedwhacker and sets himself up with a powerful blast defoliant weapon.
Nikolai meditated upon the nature of the soggies, and decided that the cause of the incursion was fae magic. Nikolai realized that he would gain a deeper undestanding as soon as he understood why the soggies were embodied in physical form.
The motley sent email to Chalkos suggesting that the ambush against the Huntsmen take place in such a way that it can be dealt with before the Coronation. Chalkos suggested that some dates were set, but exact planning will be based on the full amount of the strike force, and he'll need to get the input from his occult expert.
Roper was called regarding the red eyed woodsman and requested Roper's aid. Roper agreed to help, but also wormed information on the soggies and the Earlkonig (though not by name) out of Nikolai.
Ernest called Johnny Starlight, who agreed to help and explained that Roper and Chalkos get along "like a dog and a sealion" inasmuch as "they don't interact, so it doesn't matter."
Ariana Lassar's phone was answered by a man, who took a message. A half hour later, Arianna called Ernest. Ernest made a pledge with Dahlia not to intentionally cause harm to or restrain Dahlia. Ernest informed Arianna that Jack was injured and would not be avaliable. Arianna pointed out that literally all the enforcers in the Freehold would be absent if Dahlia went with. Ernest agreed that was a good point, and passed on it, though Dahlia stated that she would provide the information anyway and Arianna provided her email.
Content with the day's accomplishments, the motley went to sleep.
Monday and Tuesday, June 7th and 8th
Hestia watched a movie with a recovering Jack Strong, taking only a few brief breaks to care for Jack.
Nikolai is going to meditate further, hoping to unccover mysteries regarding Billy's status and how to correct it. He considered the fact that the Forever Dream was where he was in his dreams. Nikolai realized that the only way to get Billy free, is to convince him to give up a point of Wyrd and cut his ties to Ivey.
Ernie continues to work on his backpacks, and is able to complete them.
Sephie has to care for Jack, and preps her medical bag to be well equipped for the battle with the Huntsmen.
April returned with books on Name Magic and Eastern Magic from the Enchanted Attic. She specifically emphasized the importance of Name Magic to her current tasks. She suggested that True Name Magic can be used to summon anyone, especially in naturally fluid places such as the hedge. Nikolai said she should focus on keeping safe, and she excitedly explained she would focus on keeping the motley safe at any cost.
