Return owl to Katie, warded to her and Sophie
Katie,
If you want to come here, the grounds are safe and isolated. Ellie's a bit old to be a playmate to Sophie, but she can show Sophie around the library, or we can stay out on the lawn and watch them. I know you don't care for Flitchy, but he'll be inside.
Marcus has been completely mum. Odds are the Falcons management has him under lock and key just to keep him out of trouble. I can't say what he'll do, given how unpredictable his temper is. Have you met his second wife? I think she wouldn't be sorry if Marcus relinquished his claim to Sophie--unless she decides Sophie is photogenic, in which case you might be in trouble.
