In the cellar vault beneath the Avalon nightclub, far away from the press of dancing Mortals, the lights are low.
Down in the cellar vault of the Avalon, away from the sweaty press of people and the nightclubs' bright lights it is quieter.
Here a calm atmosphere prevails.
Recessed lamps cast a soft glow and the bright and rich scent of freshly made lemonade and squeezed lemons fills the air.
Tiny Martha and the larger Dillon Connery sit on a leather sofa in the Common area of the Court while quietly and carefully reading through documents relating to town planning and local taxation schemes.
A simple coffee table in front of her is piled with notes, printed out copies of maps of Sacramento and copies of many US newspapers and learned periodicals...a carafe of fresh lemonade and several tall glass tumblers in case anyone wished to drink some of it.
If asked, Martha would probably admit to feeling a little immodest in her current garb...a top hat and cane and tail coat. White tie, white waistcoat vest...her hair dyed raven black for the evening...a hint of ruby red lipstick...a generous sprinkle of lavender scent...minty toothpaste added to the neat presentation with a crisp white blouse...white gloves...the fishnet revealed a muscular leg, well suited to a dancer or athlete...her other was a metal C-Leg from high up her thigh.

Briefly breaking from her reading Martha checked to see if anyone was descending The Stairs which descend into the covert Elysian Field from the nightclub...
