After a warm and sunny weekend, the temperature has dropped sharply. The wind from the ocean is moist and chill, rattling the windows of the weathered but brightly painted two-story beach house at odd intervals.

Occasionally, you catch what you imagine to be a voice in song, a single melodic cord echoing from behind the house, seemingly from the sea.

Having arrived in Quincy recently, you've been directed to Morrigan's sanctum for lodging and an introduction to Quincy.

As everyone arrives, Morrigan greets you from the porch, ushering some into the living room and kitchen and providing everyone fresh chocolate chip cookies, water, and canned beer.

Morrigan "Welcome to my humble abode. I'm waiting for everyone to get here before I dive into my spiel. Feel free to wander around downstairs and outback. If you wind up upstairs and my sheets restrain you, you've been warned. I can answer any questions you may have while everyone arrives."

"Hi Marlo! Welcome to Quincy. No rush but I appreciate it, my place always winds up as a hostel for transient mages. I'll take the favors from the wise and powerful though. I should have some tea around somewhere, just a moment."

Morrigan rummages around in her kitchen until she finds a box of miscellaneous teas and a random tin of tea leaves.

"Here you go Marlo, the water's hot and I've brought sugar and cream as well." She says as she sits the tea box and tin on the living room table along with a glass of steaming water and two containers of brown sugar and cold cream.

"Feel free to yell, I'll be posted by the door as everyone arrives"

Pulling up to the house is a black limousine with tinted windows. It parked in front of Morrigan’s house and sat there for a few minutes before the passenger door opened and a very well built Afro American stepped out and walked to open the back door. Out stepped a very attractive young Egyptian woman with green eyes. She looked the place up and down for a moment then she began to walk to the door. The man quickly followed behind her and kept quiet.

She rang the door bell and waited for someone to answer

If anyone was watching her they surely would of noticed her eyes slightly rolled as she wondered why this place when there was many other nicer places.

As Virgil’s ride approached, he noticed the limousine pulling off and a sly smile swept across his face. His momentary frustration was abated as he stepped out of the car, noticing Morrigan sitting on the porch. “Hey, beautiful. It’s been a while. What’s the party looking like inside?” he asked. He stood before her, well dressed in a sharp charcoal colored suit with a red tie, although he appears to have not slept for days. “I took care of that thing for you, by the way.”

Morrigan eyes the limo as it pulls into the yard from inside Silver Ladder, I'll put tass on it >

She'll quickly open the door once Isis rings the doorbell and greet her, "Hi, I'm Morrigan. Welcome, come inside, please. There are cookies, water, and beer on the table. I'm still waiting for everyone to arrive. The young woman inside is a mage named Marlo. I'll go over introductions once everyone arrives."

To Virgil she'll simply reply "The party looks like a party silly. Go join the fun."

Morrigan escorts Isis and Virgil to the living room, showing both where the bathroom, kitchen and back door are located as well.

Sparrow's arrival was understated by comparison. A rideshars dropped her off just down the road and she strolled up. The pale woman was wearing black leather in quantity, and had multiple vivid tattoos showing that made her look younger than her years.

She rapped on the door exactly twice, waited for it to open, and beamed at her host. "Hello there, dear. Such a pleasure. May I come in? Thank you, thank you."

Virgil scans the room with an intense look, but as soon as his eyes cross Isis, every bit of intensity fades as a child like smile overcomes him. “Princess??” he exclaims gleefully. “ I never expected to see you here!”

Vagrant arrived by foot, walking barefoot along the beach towards the house with his ratty old boots dangling from one hand. In truth he probably could have finagled a ride, but it was a nice day out and it seemed a shame not to take the scenic route. Arriving with him was Aegis, a younger mage who Vagrant had been traveling with for the past several months as he helped introduce him to awakened society. Though Vagrant sometimes felt like he was learning just as much from Aegis as he taught, the kid was a natural.

“Looks like this is the place,” Vagrant said to his companion as they stepped off the sand and he paused to slip his boots back on.

Compared to what he was used to Morrigan’s house was practically a mansion. Even after almost a decade as an awakened he still felt out of place at most Sanctums he visited, being able to perform miracles had a way of letting people accumulate wealth after all. Perhaps that was why he had kept on the move for so long. Still, whatever it was that had caused the Quincy mages to call so many awakened here must be important, he’d stick around at least until the job was done.

Isis turned to what seemed to be a knowing voice, but why would he be here.  Did her father send him to watch over her.  She looked him up and down for a moment "I surely didn't expect to be seeing you here either. she replied and he can tell there was a bit of curiosity in her voice.

"I'm here on an invitation, you don't need to be watching over me.  IF my father sent you.

“No, no. Not this time, Princess, but it is a strange coincidence. You know my job takes me to some crazy places,” he laughs, giving her a soft bow. His smile quickly turned serious as he scopes the room. “It’s impolite to violate one’s will without first introducing yourself.”

Sharvara pulls up on the back of an Uber, grabbing his travel bag out of the trunk and sending the car on its way. He stands relaxed in a leather jacket and jeans get up. He scans the area out of habit for danger, before briskly walking up to the porch. “Hello, Morrigan I assume? Hope I’m at the right place. Be a bit awkward if you weren’t“

He says that with a smile but he’s face still remains set and serious when done speaking.

The gathered mages all feel something with their peripheral mage sight.

The sensation itself varies individually but all present feel something supernatural in the area for just a moment before the sensation fades.

Morrigan is mid introduction when her mage sight goes off for a moment.

She yells across the house, audible for everyone, "Hi, please don't work magic in my house without telling me first. It's rude and twitchy awakened shoot first and ask questions later if at all."

After that she turns back to those at the door and greets them one by one as Vagrant ,Aegis and Sharvara

"Hello, welcome to my humble sanctum. Theres cookies, water and beer in the living room. Feel free to wander around downstairs. I'll go over introductions and my spiel once everyone arrives"
