Talk of Order

[Campanella]

Campanella shook his head.

"Ones Sophia comes with time. And yes, there are many amongst the Order who tie their Sophiad to their Path. It makes sense to do so given the expression of the Supernal through our souls and our Arcana."

It was true enough. A Thyrsus was best placed to study the Shadow Realm given the comparative ease with which they mastered the higher levels of Spirit.

He nodded along with Aurora and let the silence grow between them.

"Now. Do you need to ask any further questions? And are you ready?"

At least one of his questions was redundant.

[Aurora]

“Ah, ok. A little less pressure then.” So she’d have time to figure her place out. That worked.

But she thinks she is going to do something with her Spirit. It seemed the best suited to finding artifacts and Tomes. Cause who better than a Spirit to know where those things were. And maybe her gift of gab would help talk the Spirits into sharing with her. Maybe.

“Is there a time table or push on when I would need to figure my Sophia out?” only other question that came to mind. "And, well, I don’t think I have any other questions. You’ve more than answered the ones I had. And it seems like other things will come with time and once I figure my place out." could she do this?

Yes. Yes she could.

“Otherwise than that, I believe I am ready.” This was huge, and the butterflies dancing in her stomach told her she was more nervous than she thought.

But deep inside she knew this was the right path for her.

For Aurora the Shaman, the Mysterium called. She only hoped she wouldn’t let anyone down as she figured her place among them.

[Campanella]

Campanella shook his head again.

"If there is a time frame, it has never been communicated to me."

He paused again as Aurora spoke, slowly returning to his seat at the table.

"If that is the case, then all that is left for me to do is welcome a new Neokoros Superior to the Alae Draconis. Welcome, then, Aurora."

And now he allowed himself to smile.

Neokoros Superior, because Aurora was a convert who was an experienced practitioner and not a newly Awakened novice.

"I guess I'll have to make some phone calls, then..."

And that should be a wrap. Excellent little scene . Long time coming!
