 * Stavenger can be found handing out food in Pearl one afternoon.
 * Alma will approach, careful not to get in the way of those he's serving.
 [Alma] Good afternoon, Mr. Stavenger.
 * Stavenger nods politely to you.
 [Stavenger] Sister... no, it's Reverend Mother now, isn't it.
 [Alma] Ah, still Sister, for now, thank you.
 [Alma] I had hoped we might have a chance to talk.
 [Alma] Perhaps if I helped you finish your work, you might have the time today?
 [Stavenger] Certainly. Help is always appreciated.
 * Alma will help distribute the food.

 * Alma brushes her hands off on her winter cloak.
 * Alma smiles politely and waits to see what he says.
 [Stavenger] So, you wanted to talk?
 [Alma] Yes...
 * Alma sounds awkward, probably.
 [Stavenger] Perhaps we could go somewhere warmer.
 [Alma] That sounds like a good idea.
 [Alma] Lead on :)
 * Stavenger will show the way to a nearby 'tavern'.
 [Alma] (Oh, I will deathwatch and detect evil on him as he's leading the way :p)
 * Stavenger seems to be known here, they bring warm drinks to the table as you sit down.
 * Stavenger is alive and not evil.
 [Alma] Thank you.
 * Stavenger also thanks the girl who brought the drinks.
 [Alma] So, I suppose it goes without saying that many within the Church doubt some of what you preach...
 * Stavenger nods.
 [Stavenger] I have heard that, yes.
 [Alma] But I have recently come to learn that in one regard it seems perhaps you have insight which we have not.
 [Alma] So I wished to ask you about Hell.
 [Stavenger] What do you want to know about it?
 [Alma] I'd like to know how you came to learn of its threat?
 [Stavenger] I was there.
 * Stavenger says simply.
 [Alma] In Hell itself?
 [Alma] (sm)
 * Alma rolls [ 1d20+35 ] getting [ 13 ] which, after the modifier [ 35 ] totals [ 48 ]
 [Stavenger] Yes. At least, that is what I believe I experienced.
 * Stavenger seems perfectly sincere in his conviction.
 [Alma] What was it like?
 [Stavenger] Terrible.
 [Stavenger] It was... torture.
 [Alma] How did you return?
 [Alma] And how did you come to an explanation of what happened?
 [Stavenger] I returned to life.. I was saved by a stranger, as it happened.
 [Stavenger] As to my understanding of what I experienced... I returned with the knowledge in my mind.
 [Stavenger] I believe I was permitted to understand it so that I could tell others.
 [Alma] The Seven?
 * Alma nods.
 [Alma] Are you ... aware of some of the other changes?
 [Stavenger] What changes do you speak of?
 [Alma] Well, the being Kavreshar, and the entity it once served?
 [Alma] Was any of this imparted by your experience?
 [Stavenger] The forces of evil.
 [Alma] It's... a little more complicated than that...
 * Alma wonders if she would be stamping on her own foot by elaborating.
 [Alma] The change that has come since the Arch was restored... it's just beginning.
 [Alma] And we have no idea where it is taking us...
 [Stavenger] I agree.
 [Stavenger] The church has corruption within it. Surely you must know this...
 [Alma] Any body of men has corruption within it.
 [Alma] I came to see how you learned of Hell, but also in the hope that I could assure you that my goal is to serve the Seven protect the Empire
 [Stavenger] I'm glad to hear that, Sister.
 [Alma] I won't say I think you are always fair... but when we are wrong, I hope that we will do better.
 [Stavenger] I hope so too. In this, we can certainly agree.
 [Alma] But with what's coming... I hope that we can be allies. Even if you cannot return to us, then let us not be antagonists?
 * Stavenger sighs.
 [Stavenger] I realize my message seems antagonistic to you. But if you are unchallenged, unquestioned, then the assumptions of the past will continue, to all our detriments.
 * Alma nods
 [Alma] That is fair.
 [Stavenger] I hope that we can listen to one another.
 [Stavenger] Even if we do not agree.
 [Alma] That sounds excellent to me...
 [Alma] Brother Stavenger.
 * Stavenger smiles slightly.
 [Stavenger] Good day, Sister. I must be getting back to work.
 [Alma] Thank you for the drink.
 [Stavenger] Thank you for... listening.
 [Alma] I don't think we'll be able to survive what's coming if we don't listen.
 [Stavenger] That is my fear as well.
 * Stavenger pulls his cloak back on and departs.

 [DiablotinNarrator] You have been distracted from too much misery, however, by little Vera, who demands a large portion of your attention, and by a steady stream of visitors wishing to pay their respects and present the new princess with gifts.
 [Ilphere] :(
 [Ilphere] (:( for the first part ;)
 [DiablotinNarrator] (smilies for presents? :)
 [DiablotinNarrator] (oh, and the baby I suppose)
 [Ilphere] (hehe)
 [DiablotinNarrator] It is after the first flood of well-wishers has dwindled that the Chancellor comes to pay you a visit...
 [Theonee] Princess Ilphère, how are you?
 [Ilphere] Oh... well enough! :)
 [Ilphere] What an unexpected pleasure to see you, chancellor...! :)
 * Theonee smiles.
 [Theonee] Well, I could not let such an occasion pass without a little something...
 * Theonee offers you a small, nicely-wrapped box.
 [Ilphere] Oh, thank you...!
 * Ilphere accepts it gracefully.
 [Ilphere] I should open it now...? :)
 [Theonee] If you wish, certainly.
 * Ilphere carefully opens it without tearing the paper.
 [DiablotinNarrator] It contains a small, child-sized amber necklace.
 [Theonee] I hope it will suit the little princess.
 [Ilphere] It's beautiful...!
 [Ilphere] Thank you so much!
 [Theonee] You are very welcome.
 [Theonee] Is she sleeping? May I see her?
 [Ilphere] Certainly...
 * Theonee goes quietly over to the sleeping child.
 [Theonee] She's so small... It's easy to forget how tiny they are, when one is not often around babies.
 * Theonee glances back at you.
 [Theonee] I want you to know, it will be all right.
 [Ilphere] It... what will...?
 * Ilphere asks slowly.
 [Theonee] I forgive you for what you must do.
 * Theonee says with a gentle smile.
 [Ilphere] I don't understand...
 [Theonee] No... but soon...
 * Theonee pauses in the middle of whatever she was about to say, and her eyes seem to glaze over.
 [Ilphere] . o O (She is one of the ones...)
 [Ilphere] ... Chancellor?
 [Theonee] [w] Ohh. She's almost free...
 * Theonee twitches, slumping to the floor.
 [Ilphere] ... !
 * Ilphere crouches down with her...
 [Ilphere] Chancellor...? Theonee!
 [Theonee] [w] Nine... elms... You have to ... go...
 [Ilphere] Emkathon...
 * Theonee manages a nod.
 [Ilphere] But I can't leave Cordovera here... and you...
 [Theonee] [w] I'll be... all right...
 [Theonee] [w] Take the baby.
 [Ilphere] .. Yes... Yes, I should. @_@
 * Ilphere bundles up her tiny daughter.
 [Ilphere] Are you sure you're alright....? :/
 * Theonee has managed to get herself into a chair.
 [Theonee] Fine... call for a servant, before you go...
 * Ilphere will do so.
 [Ilphere] [w, to C] We're going to go see something very special...
 * Ilphere will Teleport to Nine Elms, once someone has arrived to help the Chancellor.\

 [DiablotinNarrator] Guy, you and Portia are sitting down to a late breakfast/early lunch together - she is off to work tonight, and you have plans to see Aden later, to continue talking him through the process of his wedding, which is taking place tomorrow.
 [DiablotinNarrator] Silvia is having her second private lesson with Reverend Father Velten. From anything you heard, the first went fairly well.
