Breakfast will be much the same as yesterday,  nominally available from 07:45.

As yesterday there is fresh milk, coffee, or Tea (Breakfast or Green).

The remainder of the menu consists of a selection from fresh bread (wholemeal/grannery equivalent), butter, cheese (chedder type, white crumbly type, edam type) either made from cow's or sheep's milk, oat meal porridge, cold meats ( chicken, venison, ham, mutton), cured fish, and/or eggs (hard boiled or scrambled by default - you can request poached or fried but they will have to be cooked to order and will take 15 minutes to order/prepare/arrive).
Honey and a selection of jams (strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrent, blackberry and apple) are also available.
For those that want it there is also a 'thick tomato sauce'.. you need to use a spoon to spoon it out of the pottery kilner type jar it is in. Note also that the kilner jar fits into a larger bulbous pottery pot, which provides a cold water jacket which keeps the jar cold.

Madison will arrive in the dining room at 07:54 and Isla at 07:56. Gabriel is absent this morning.
Madison will remind you that you're expected in Carnelian, ready to leave for the Expo, in what would be 2 hours local time, so she suggests you would need to leave by 9am at the latest, which would give you half an hour Carnelian time to change.

Natalie, Alana ,Blake, Cormac ,Kenneth, Edward ,Winter, Cathal, and Natsuki will all arrive between 07:55 and 08:00.

Aside from any potential discussion regarding the imminent attendance at the Expo, Cormac, Natalie, and Blake would all like to join Rhiannon's Pattern class, as 'overnight' they have all now surpassed the 30 minute milestone.

Without any further commentary or items for discussion, they will all finish their breakfast's, thank Madison and Isla for their hospitality, return to their rooms, and then return to Carnelian.


Arriving back in the foyer of the mansion, you'll find that it's acquired a new ornament, a stand-alone door shaped airport style security scanner (,at least that's what it resembles. The 'doorway' is 3'7"(1.1m) wide x 6'5"(1.98m) high, with the frame being 8" square. Two large box like protrusions, 18" wide, 16" thick, and 24" high, are  mounted one on each side of the frame at floor level. The 'doorway' is between the two sets of double doors and the main entry doors at the front of the mansion.


Note the standard entry point (as depicted on the Trump)is between the two sets of double doors and the staircase.

Rhiannon arrived for breakfast at 8:00. She specifically wanted to walk in as the clock struck. They had had a productive night reading auras, and she was quite famished. In fact, she filled her plate. After breakfast she thanks her hosts for their amazing hospitality, then joined the others for the return trip to Carnelian.

Changing into her sleep clothes she set an alarm for 1 am from there she should be able to fit in two runs and a quick nap before breakfast.

-----

Waking up to alarms would always be annoying but she had things to do and not much time left to do them in. Situating herself on top of the covers she closed her eyes and begin to take several deep breaths, when she no longer felt half asleep did Cassandra begin her sixth pattern run.

---

Three successful runs later and Cassandra is tired but ultimately rather pleased her last run brought her to 21 minutes which means she was approximately at the same level as the others. Although it would take her several more runs to be as efficient as possible, that was for her to deal with later.

Rotating slightly she felt her back give a satisfying pop. It was about 10 past 3 in the morning she was going to go back to sleep for another few hours before she had to get up and deal with people.

----

Cassandra walked into Breakfast a couple of minutes before the Clock struck 8 am. When Rhiannon arrives Cassandra expresses her interest in learning what the others had been discussing with her when they had time at a later date.

Once breakfast was finished Cassandra retrieved her pre-packed bag from her room before joining the others ready to return back to Carnelian.
