Jade forces a smile and walks over to Storm. The darkness that appears underneath her eyes does little to hide the clear lack of sleep.
"Hey Storm. You um... look diffrent. Is everything aright?"

Jade walks into the building and sees the others already speaking to Zuiigrii. She stands to the side and waits her turn. She leans against the wall slumping a little.

The afternoon sun hangs high in the sky, partially hidden behind clouds. The air is damp from last night's rain and puddles fill the streets. From the Seshtau embassy, the baroness can be seen exiting. She is wearing her normal black dress and is being followed by her flesh golem protector. She isn't carrying herself with purpose as she normally does. Her shoulders seem to slump and her stride slacks in pace. Jade makes her way to the artisan's guild.

The sky is cloudy and dark as the rain falls down. The streets are clear and so is the tavern. The famon has made sure to clear out the market area, although the rain certainly doesn't help. Even though the tavern is empty, the warm glow of candles keep the building lit.
With no warning, the tavern doors swing open. In the doorway stands a six foot skeleton. Red glows where it's eyes once were. It wears a quartered red and black tabard that is soaked from the rain. It makes it way over to the missive board and pins a piece of parchment to it. Once done the skeleton turns and walks away into the rain.
The parchment has a picture on it along with some words. On top, in bold lettering, it says "WANTED". Towards the bottom it says "Alive Only". Finally, at the bottom, it reads:
"Blodwulf
Wanted by Seshtau
Must be brought alive to Baroness Jade
Reward upon completion"

Jade blushes slightly but tries to not show her embarrassment. She avoids eye contact with Saige, trying to act like she doesn't know what she was about to say. Her eyes eventually end up on Julien and she smiles.

Jade watches the interaction and cracks a smile. She gives Julien's hand that she is holding a little queeze.
"Yes. I was unfortunately unable to attend but I made sure they knew who's people they were hurting and what those consequences looked like after."
Jade motions to Blodwulf.
"I belive you've seen me work before."

Jade speaks.
"Good afternoon everyone."

Jade places a hand on Roman's shoulder.
"Thank you for taking on this task. I know you worked very hard on it and I appreciate you greatly for it."

Jade stands beside Roman at the table and watches as he speaks. She sighs when he says sisters.
"Well, I dont know much about them, but I do know the basics. The sisters are the ones who created existence. If order ever becomes unbalanced they wipe the slate and start anew. They are insanely powerful beings as you can imagine. There are two of them and for the purpose of this meeting we will not say their names. We shall refer to one as F and the other as D. The sister F created the fey and the sister D created the dragons. They also have a brother which is the embodiment of chaos. We know him as Hilock and he created the haltija. Though he is chaos he is a lot safer to deal with."

Jade nods.
"If we don't find it in these then it would probably be deeper in the ancient library."
Jade nods to Roman to go ahead.

Two haltijans emerge from the back rooms. A woman with reddish brown hair and a male with black hair. They both greet Vesta as they enter.
The woman speaks first.
"Good afternoon Vesta. You ready to check over Roman's hard work?"

Jade shakes her head no.
"The kingdom is still at war and now the famon is getting worse. Are the next gathering of heros, the group of us are planning to go into Tuatha to try and fix it. Which probably means more fighting."
