Amon Returns

Image TODO

I saw Jabbar of Alexandria at Elysium, he is apparently a ghoul and after the Palimpsest. Marcus called wanting to see me (Session 134), but it wasn't to apologize. Rather, he had questions about Jabbar, and even suggested Jabbar might want to steal the Palimpsests from the church. Who would think such a thing?

At the Firebird performance at the Met, some strange freak accidents happened, a dancer fainting and iron flying in my direction. Luckily the Prince saved me (Session 135). Much to my shock though, these problems were caused by a demon-creature who was using the performance to send a message: 'Amon shall live!' I almost lost myself, but Cierra put me back in my place (Session 136). After the events, I told the Prince everything, and I informed Lindsey and Isaac who had not realized what was going on yet with the creature (Session 137).

Colours

Image TODO

I've been seeing weird colours for a while now, apparently Isaac knows something about it... (Session 134)

Unable to find Isaac during Elysium, I spoke to Ravenna who agreed to train me for a bit (Session 147). I drank some of Ravenna's blood and she's taking me out to clubs to practice (Session 148). We continued to train (Session 149) over the next weeks (Session 150) and I finally figured out how to interpret aura's (Session 151).

Sophia

Sophia Bell seemed she might be ill, but she reassured me she was okay (Session 131). It turned out this may have been an overestimation on her part as she was sick again this time. She may need my help (Session 136).

I asked around at Elysium and got advise to take her to Reverend Jonah. At the Rotary, I invited her to do just that (Session 138). When I took her to the Reverend, they discussed the matter in private, but it was serious it seemed. The Prince was also concerned as she used to feed on Sophia and she went with me to see the Reverend, though I'm still confused as to what is going on (Session 139).

I visited Sophia and she reassured me everything was fine now and that she is feeling much better, though she wouldn't tell me what the problem had been (Session 146).

Lindsey contacted me for some unknown reason about Sophia and Mr. Worthington seems to have caused her to do so. She reassured me Sophia was really okay, but I am doubtful - best play dumb for now (Session 147)

Lindsey and Dwayne let me know that Don Lucchessi and Don Carlo have a problem - that's not good, they are both such nice people! (Session 151) Lindsey asked for my help in dealing with it and I spoke to both Dons to settle the matter (Session 152).

Dance Skills

IMAGE TODO

The teacher at the School of American Ballet warned that there will be a big test the 30th, in preparation of the summer break. Other girls will likely go to have intensives during summer, which as a Kindred, I won't be able to do (Session 142). We had a grueling training session, but I finally managed to pass! Next year, I will need a new uniform and should expect to be going through a lot more point shoes (Session 143).

While in the Hedge, I learned Lindsey doesn't know how to dance, and moreover, Dwayne fell during the maypole dance (Session 144). Lindsey and I agree we should arrange some dance lessons some day soon (Session 145) and I gave some basic lessons though she'll still need to do some studies on it (Session 146).

I also invited Dwayne and Carol to join the Ballroom dance lessons (Session 147). Since Emily was unable to arrange the trainer I had in mind, I asked Isaac and he agreed to give lessons! (Session 151) We set a date for next Friday and Ravenna and Borislav are also joining. I'm a tad nervous about him (Session 152).

Setite Invitation

IMAGE TODO

When we left the hedge, I was warned to keep an eye out for snakes that might bite (Session 144). At Elysium, Kensa and Hesra invited me to visit the Golden Asp soon, which I did. The Setites are calling in the favour I owe - they'd like me to get the Prince to accept the arrival of a woman named Kadijah into the city (Session 145). I made some calls to find out more about Khadijah - who's sire's sire is apparently on a 'red list', and I actually talked to her on the phone. I also spoke with the Prince about her, and promised to help her get some clothes when she arrives - which she will as the prince said she'd meet with her, at least, so that's progress (Session 146).

Khadijah arrived in New York and we went shopping in prepartion of her introduction (Session 149) - it seems to have worked as the Prince accepted her as a new member of her household! (Session 150)

Charity

IMAGE TODO

At Elysium, I was contacted Deborah Faulkner who organizes charity events. She wanted to cooperate and of course I gladly agreed (Session 145).

While visiting Marcus, he lamented about his living conditions - he lives in a derelict church which is apparently no longer used and asked my help to fix it up as a favour, to which I agreed (Session 148). I asked Emily to send someone to fix the glass-in-lead windows, but it turns out that may be somewhat expensive (Session 149).

To still help Marcus out, I contacted Deborah and she agreed to help me out with a charity event to sort out the building (Session 151).

Female Territory

IMAGE TODO

I promised Isaac I'd talk to Lydia de Witte on behalf of Penny Leonora Garfield as she is seeking to get some territory in Brooklyn (Session 143).

Dwayne asked me about the Baroness of Queens and sending her on a vacation which got a lot more questionable looks than I was entirely comfortable with, though I agreed to try to help him as it also seems to involve the Fey (Session 147).

I went to the Baroness, but she was quite unpleasant, despite my best efforts. In either case, Dwayne is satisfied with the matter so I best leave it at that (Session 148).

I promised Isaac to talk to Lydia at the next open Elysium (Session 149) and she said she would talk to her husband.

I also arranged for Dwayne to visit the Baroness of Queens again as there seems to be some unfinished matters there, according to the Baroness (Session 150). He went with Carol to sort matters out (Session 151)

Lydia said she couldn't manage with her husband, so we'll have to find other arrangements (Session 152).

Carol's Clothes

IMAGE TODO

Carol did not appear at Elysium. When we went to check on her we found she had nothing to wear. I loaned her a gown, and we went shopping soon after - everyone needs a good summer wardrobe (Session 145).

I checked in with Carol to make sure she was okay, turns out she's actually trying to get the right outfit for Dwayne and she's unsure about his tastes. I promised I'd inquire subtly about it (Session 146).

I checked in with Dwayne - he apparently wants Carol to wear a stolen hoodie and likes light blue. I loaned a light blue gown to Carol for Elysium and checked the Punch for the styles worn there, reporting them back to Carol (Session 147).

I got Marcus to steal Dwayne's hoodie for Carol in exchange for some interior decorating, but now everyone was upset. We managed to sort it out in the end. Men are SO contradictory and confusing (Session 148)!
