Nov 24 21:32:35 <AndroUser>	*Leaving the Comte at the prison, Morgan walks through the town of Fischler towards the Eisenfurst's house. It is similar to any town anywhere on theah once the sun sets. Loud voices, drinkers spilling from doorways, women waiting to be engaged in their night's work. No One disturbs Morgan, who arrives at the house to see a couple of carriages parked in the drive.
Nov 24 21:33:02 *	Morgan looks them over briefly before going inside
Nov 24 21:33:45 <AndroUser>	*he finds both Claudia and Sorgi playing cards in the nursery's parlour*
Nov 24 21:35:13 *	Morgan glances around briefly
Nov 24 21:35:19 <Morgan>	just the people I wanted to see
Nov 24 21:36:50 <AndroUser>	*They both look curious*
Nov 24 21:37:10 <Morgan>	Sorgi, I need you to do something for me
Nov 24 21:37:28 <AndroUser>	S: Yes, my Lord?
Nov 24 21:37:52 <Morgan>	go to the jail, collect a prisoner and escort him out of town, safely.
Nov 24 21:38:41 <AndroUser>	S: *he nods slowly* how far out of town, my Lord?
Nov 24 21:39:21 <Morgan>	a few miles. I gave my word I'd see him safely out of the town. After that its his own problem
Nov 24 21:39:54 <AndroUser>	S: Is he likely to be trouble?
Nov 24 21:40:33 <Morgan>	I doubt it. He's as keen to get out as I am to be rid of him. You'll need to move quickly from the jail though, someone's trying half heartedly to kill him
Nov 24 21:42:09 <AndroUser>	S: Defend him if we are set upon?
Nov 24 21:42:51 *	Morgan nods
Nov 24 21:43:00 <Morgan>	until you're out of town
Nov 24 21:44:18 <AndroUser>	S: Yes, my Lord. *he rises, stretching*
Nov 24 21:44:48 <Morgan>	be careful Sorgi. His life is not as important as yours, understand?
Nov 24 21:45:05 <AndroUser>	C: *she puts down her cards on his, shuffling without looking*
Nov 24 21:45:59 <AndroUser>	S: I understand. *he looks at C* You'll have to beat me next time!
Nov 24 21:46:23 <AndroUser>	C: *she laughs* I'd have beaten you this time!
Nov 24 21:47:39 <AndroUser>	S: *he puts on his coat and sword. He smiles at C* Not a hope. *he bows to Morgan* My Lord
Nov 24 21:47:53 *	Morgan inclines his head
Nov 24 21:48:06 <AndroUser>	Sorgi heads off
Nov 24 21:48:34 *	Morgan looks at Claudia
Nov 24 21:48:36 <AndroUser>	C: *she looks up* a quick game?
Nov 24 21:48:51 <Morgan>	I see you're getting along... very quick, I'm going to be late for dinner
Nov 24 21:49:44 <AndroUser>	C: *she deals up quickly* We get on well enough, considering the history.
Nov 24 21:50:48 *	Morgan nods
Nov 24 21:52:18 <Morgan>	Its good to see
Nov 24 21:52:31 <AndroUser>	C: we will stay a few more days before heading back to the ship?
Nov 24 21:53:33 *	Morgan nods
Nov 24 21:53:36 <Morgan>	thats the plan, aye
Nov 24 21:54:35 <AndroUser>	C: You should know, Varick does not seem very happy here
Nov 24 21:55:24 <Morgan>	I dare say thats because his mother is here
Nov 24 21:57:00 <AndroUser>	C: Yes, that is the impression I get
Nov 24 21:57:28 <Morgan>	We'll be away from her soon
Nov 24 22:00:22 <AndroUser>	C: Good. I don't trust her.
Nov 24 22:00:31 *	Morgan smiles slightly
Nov 24 22:00:32 <Morgan>	Good
Nov 24 22:02:31 <AndroUser>	C: *she beats him at the cards* But then I don't trust most people
Nov 24 22:03:39 *	Morgan drops his cards on the table, standing
Nov 24 22:03:58 <Morgan>	There seems to be some of that going around
Nov 24 22:06:57 <AndroUser>	C: *she nods* any jobs for me?
Nov 24 22:07:20 <Morgan>	stay alert... I'm not terribly happy about this place myself
Nov 24 22:11:43 <AndroUser>	C: As always.
Nov 24 22:12:08 *	Morgan nods to her briefly before heading to find Molly
Nov 24 22:14:30 <AndroUser>	*As he passes a clock, he realises it's already ten minutes after everyone is expected to assemble for dinner*
Nov 24 22:14:51 *	Morgan grunts slightly, heading for the dining room
Nov 24 22:18:35 <AndroUser>	*he gets to the antechamber before the dinning room. There are around fifty people in it. He can see Alarice and Isiah talking to some strangers on one side, Mina and her father in the middle, and Molly talking to Fischler in the far corner. She looks beautiful, even though the gown is nothing new. She fits in here as if she was born for this life. He sees her laughing at Fischler's comments as she takes a glass of red wine from a servant w
Nov 24 22:19:31 <Morgan>	from a servant w
Nov 24 22:19:31 <Morgan>	servant w
Nov 24 22:19:31 <Morgan>	servant w
Nov 24 22:19:49 <AndroUser>	Who has approached her ((Gonna need to know who or what he's paying attention to, and how intensely))
Nov 24 22:20:24 *	Morgan watches Alarice for a moment before looking round at the other guests
Nov 24 22:22:08 <AndroUser>	*Alarice's face bears a slight smirk. Mina and her father look relaxed. He vaguely recognises some of the other guests but No one really stands out*
Nov 24 22:23:09 *	Morgan looks back at Alarice before moving towards Molly
Nov 24 22:25:53 <AndroUser>	*Alarice's attention is focused back on Isiah. Molly is nowhere to been seen, though the heavy wooden doors near where she was stood are closing
Nov 24 22:27:57 *	Morgan moves slowly towards the door
Nov 24 22:28:31 <AndroUser>	*No one interrupts him*
Nov 24 22:29:21 *	Morgan nudges the door open
Nov 24 22:30:21 <AndroUser>	*there's No one visible, but he can hear running, heeled footsteps heading towards their room*
Nov 24 22:30:40 *	Morgan follows them quickly
Nov 24 22:31:40 <AndroUser>	*he hears the door of their room fling wide open and bang against the wall before he's even rounded the corner
Nov 24 22:31:59 *	Morgan runs to the room
Nov 24 22:33:02 <AndroUser>	*The door is still ajar. He can hear Molly being violently sick. Her half drunk glass is on the table inside the door*
Nov 24 22:36:19 <Morgan>	blossom?
Nov 24 22:36:24 *	Morgan picks up the glass and sniffs it
Nov 24 22:37:41 <AndroUser>	*she briefly makes a noise of acknowledgement before being sick again. The door to their small bathroom is open. The wine smells of peppermint*
Nov 24 22:38:01 *	Morgan frowns
Nov 24 22:38:59 <AndroUser>	*she coughs a little* d-don't touch that glass.
Nov 24 22:39:23 *	Morgan puts it down and goes to her
Nov 24 22:40:41 <AndroUser>	*her beautiful satin gown puddles around her as she kneels by the toilet. She puts her fingers into her throat to make herself sick once more.
Nov 24 22:41:25 *	Morgan frowns
Nov 24 22:41:40 <Morgan>	what... who gave you the drink?
Nov 24 22:42:53 <AndroUser>	*she gestures to the chain pull for him flush, and slumps against the wall*
Nov 24 22:43:06 *	Morgan pulls the chain
Nov 24 22:44:02 <AndroUser>	*she looks even more flushed than normal, her eyes too bright. She speaks really quietly* Morgan, I need to use the magic.
Nov 24 22:45:51 *	Morgan nods slowly
Nov 24 22:45:58 <Morgan>	and then I'm going to kill someone
Nov 24 22:48:27 <AndroUser>	*she looks at him seriously* Good. *she  closes her eyes with her hands on her bodice. His scalp and leg start to tingle, and the air feels sharper in his lungs*
Nov 24 22:49:54 *	Morgan grimaces slightly
Nov 24 22:51:17 <AndroUser>	*a couple of seconds later, he feels the magic end, and she opens her eyes again. They are no longer so worryingly bright. She holds her hand to him*
Nov 24 22:51:45 *	Morgan takes it
Nov 24 22:52:23 <AndroUser>	*she pulls herself up to standing. She is a little wobbly, but he can see she's trying to cover it*
Nov 24 22:53:18 *	Morgan takes her over to a chair
Nov 24 22:53:21 <Morgan>	sit
Nov 24 22:54:25 <AndroUser>	*she allows him to instruct her. She shivers a little. Her eyes are solemn and seem somehow older*
Nov 24 22:54:56 <Morgan>	Now then blossom, tell me what happened
Nov 24 22:57:07 <AndroUser>	*she takes a deep breath* I was just speaking with his Grace when I was given a glass of wine. I suppose I wasn't fully paying attention as I did not notice the smell until I had already drunk several mouthfulls
Nov 24 23:00:49 <Morgan>	Any ideas who sent it?
Nov 24 23:01:24 <AndroUser>	*she raises an eyebrow* suspicions Yes, proof No
Nov 24 23:01:40 <Morgan>	go on
Nov 24 23:05:02 <AndroUser>	*she looks at his face with a hint of sadness* the only thing that smells that way in wine is Pennyroyal. A few grains would be enough to end a pregnancy, as much as is in that glass would kill an adult in under five minutes.
Nov 24 23:05:55 <Morgan>	Who're you thinking?
Nov 24 23:08:18 <AndroUser>	Alarice.  We know she has knowledge of Pennyroyal.  She hates me, and she'd very likely want revenge upon you for refusing her and forcing her marriage.
Nov 24 23:09:02 <Morgan>	She'll regret that
Nov 24 23:09:29 <AndroUser>	*Molly watches him closely* If it'd taken me any longer to heal it...
Nov 24 23:10:54 <Morgan>	Blossom, if you need to take action to stay safe, you take it... you don't need to ask me, understand?
Nov 24 23:13:37 <AndroUser>	*she looks conflicted* but it's dangerous here. You could lose everything.
Nov 24 23:13:54 <Morgan>	no quicker than everyone else will
Nov 24 23:14:07 <Morgan>	besides... you and Varick _are_ everything
Nov 24 23:15:06 <AndroUser>	*she smiles, biting the left hand side of her lower lip* thank you. *she takes his hand*
Nov 24 23:18:52 <AndroUser>	I think what upsets me more than very nearly dying is that the only reason anyone would have for putting Pennyroyal in my wine is to murder any baby of yours that might have been growing in me.
Nov 24 23:19:07 *	Morgan nods
Nov 24 23:19:26 <Morgan>	She'll get hers, don't you worry blossom
Nov 24 23:20:07 <AndroUser>	*Molly nods* This cannot be allowed to go unpunished.
Nov 24 23:20:16 <Morgan>	it wont
Nov 24 23:20:35 <AndroUser>	Should we have Varick checked?
Nov 24 23:20:54 <Morgan>	I think it'd be a good idea, though I don't imagine he'll have been harmed at all
Nov 24 23:22:25 <AndroUser>	*Molly stands, off balance a little, and goes to ring the bell* I just don't know.  I don't feel very safe here right now.
Nov 24 23:22:43 <Morgan>	Then we'll leave
Nov 24 23:23:36 <AndroUser>	*she looks a little puzzled* Are we allowed? Would that not be rude?
Nov 24 23:23:49 <Morgan>	I'll speak with the Eisenfurst
Nov 24 23:24:49 <AndroUser>	*she comes to sit back down* You ought to go to dinner, liebling, you must be hungry
Nov 24 23:25:01 *	Morgan shrugs
Nov 24 23:25:07 <Morgan>	I'll go but I'll be back soon
Nov 24 23:26:47 <AndroUser>	I'll be alright now, I must not eat for a full day and night, but thankfully that should be all.
Nov 28 13:24:18 <Morgan>	 * Morgan nods
Nov 28 13:29:54 <AndroUser>	*She smiles softly* Go on, liebling. Do what you must.
Nov 28 13:30:25 *	Morgan nods slightly before heading back downstairs
Nov 28 13:31:56 *	Morgan picks up the glass on the way past
