mythopoeics

[Leukothoe had slipped his grasp but he'd caught another woman.]

The Persian may have eluded me but an Arthurian woman did not. Nimue is no longer among you. I believe that the God of Sleep (and brother of Death) was also taken but not by one of us. Rather it was due to him being...himself.

That said, Athena is correct, I believe. You are not dogs to be hunted. You're all much bigger prizes than that. Valuable yet ours to do with as we please. Some of you are gifted and some are not but even with your abilities combined you cannot rival Khaos.

Accept your fate.

It seems the club owner has some luck. But does he understand what all this means?

And it's always interesting to see them try to fight back. The one named as Maddening is lost to you all now, the first to fall it appears. Her cousin...Vincent will have to manage alone.

Tempting to catch him as well. But let's make it a game within a game. We'll see which of us can catch him first.

Tristan of Cornwall, you can run but know that none of you can leave here, no matter what you try. You all have given us many headaches so consider this stress-relief. [Especially Kala, but there was no need to say that, not then, not in public. Some troubles did not need to casually aired.]

Run as far as you can. Know that no matter where you go, you will be found. You will be taken. And it may not even be by us.

Still. I plan on getting the highest count. So make the chase good for me. If you do, glory awaits you as my prizes.

[Leaving Samael's side was not going to happen. She ate, she slept and she allowed the windows to be opened for fresh air and light but she did not leave his side when it could be helped. She knew her people would work for Camlann, would manage it all when she was unfocused.

And though it was unreasonable, she loathed Gwynevere for her supposed role. Wasn't this how the Glastheins felt for Svargans for the suspicion that fell on them? Perhaps the little princess would understand, perhaps not. Freyja didn't very much care at the moment and it wasn't as if she could really get involved. The investigation into the matter couldn't contain her direct involvement, the twin sister of the victim. It would be biased with Glastheim questioning the results and the queen knew herself well enough to know she would want blood - fast.]

Tell me of what has been going on, lovelies.

You have poor luck, duckie. But with no report from Ilium of your harm or death, I suspect you kept yourself safe.

Your sister is returning to you as swiftly as possible. The investigation has cleared her. Speak to my right-hand for details.

Keep calm and don't break anything. It's a nice place so let's keep it that way. Be grateful we didn't invite anything to devour you or poke you in the middle of the night. Unless one of the chipmunks come up with you. But we will remain faultless.

If you should have a need for something or require something to be repaired, please place a neatly-written request on the front desk in the lobby or pick up your apartment's phone and press zero. State your request and hang up. We'll attend to the matter as swiftly as possible.

Happy holidays.



And don't break anything.
