Merlin was curious. He had never had a sibling before, not truly. Being the son of a Duke of Hell and a mortal woman tended to make that not likely. But here he was, going to meet with a young woman, one who claimed, convincingly, to be his sister.

She had replaced a spitfire of a young girl, and he has used the few minutes he had to search for every ounce of information on her, and had downloaded it all to hardcopy, with pictures and files, so she could know more of her new life... if she chose to live that one.

He strode into the coffee shop and took up a table, watching for her. He was glad most people had no idea who he was, and enhanced that with a spell that would keep anyone not his friend, or not looking specifically for him, from finding him. Magic was useful, especially here and now. He ordered a real menu from the waiter, which brought some blinking, and settled back to wait.

	Ganieda nodded. "I think there may only be a mother--it seemed to lack a man's...energy, about the place. But she does seem very preoccupied and distressed, and I would hate to distress her further." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We can see about getting you an internship with my company, so as to give you a reason to be seen with me, and at LEGO, and give you distance from the situation while you learn this world. If you wish it, that is." She pondered. "How old is your replacee? Did she have ID that stated such?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ganieda smiled and nodded. "That would be well, and it would help me to get accustomed to this world better, I should think." She picked up the small bag that she had put the girl's wallet into. "Aye, there was a small card...She is sixteen, as I am." She handed it over. It was a junior driver's license, with her picture and an age of sixteen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She looked at it, and nodded.

"Good. 16 years of age is old enough. There are stricter rules of work here and people are treated as not full equals until they are 18."

She shook her head.

"It is at times, a silly world."

She handed it back.

"I will send you an email, to your computer, who, if he is as animate as you say, will alert yo when it arrives. It will have a faux contest, and you can enter it, and when you win, win an internship at the company."

	Ganieda smiled. "I see you are as clever as I remember," she said softly. "The...computer has been helping me with some matters of etiquette and helped me find the coffee shop." It is clear that she will have to do much more exploring in Genevieve's room...she needed to figure some things out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Merlin nodded, then glanced around and spoke. Her words were soft, sibilant, and shifted tone every moment, her hands sketching the air, and golden, red, and black lights shimmering along them as she encanted a spell.

A moment later a small flat item appeared in her hand. It fairly glowed gold.

"To all others, this will appear to be what is called a DVD for your computer, but in truth it is an enhancement spell, to allow your computer to gain even more ability to aid you. And also to allow it to contact me, if you need me, no matter the hour."

Her eyes were fond as she looked at Ganieda.

"A sister unknown you may have been, but a sister loved you will be."

	She took the small golden disc in her hand. She could see herself in the front of it. Her smile wobbled a little and tears came to her eyes. "Thank you. Thank you so much," she said gratefully. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Merlin took her other hand and gently squeezed. "No one deserves to be alone, sister mine. And as long as I am here, you will not be." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She took a deep breath and nodded. "That greatly comforts me. I think this could be a very interesting adventure." Her very first adventure, really. It's been a quiet life for Ganieda so far. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Merlin smiled at her. "Worry not my sister. All will be well. This place is no more evil or good than any other, but you will discover magic of many kinds here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It seems to be so." She pauses for a moment. "Is it terrible of me to look forward to figuring this world out?" Her other life had been far simpler and she rather felt as if she should be much more unhappy than she was in this moment. But this situation could not be changed and so she must make the best of things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
