(2602)Eternal Court

[Seryna]

Caroline Shaw considered for only a moment.
"If you would be able to arrange a meeting with Priscus Silvers, I would be most grateful.
I would not want to add to the work of the Seneschal or the - you said the Prince?" The Daeva inquires.

"Mr. Fuller is a distinguished member of Clan Ventrue. Mr. Fuller wishes to inquire what might make a favorable impression and how the demographics of the Domain are at the moment." Robert Goren stated.

Peter Moore waited a moment to ensure Goren had finished. Then he stated
"I represent a Gangrel that is curious about the Court." He gives a small nod towards Raul.
"You share a clan with my Regnant. May I inquire what you think of the Domain?"

[Otto Schneider]

Otto nodded sharply in response. "In this Domain, the Prince may be propitiated for Acknowledgement. Most often, this is merely conducted when she is at Elysium and a newcomer is present. As you have intuited, she contends with managing many matters around the Domain." The Reeve quirked an eyebrow at Caroline. "The responsibility of contacting the appropriate Priscus typically falls to the petitioner. However, if you so desire, I can make the appropriate arrangements on your behalf." The Priest tried to gauge her reaction to see if that would sway her at all. It didn't really bother Otto to reach out to the Daeva Priscus, but how she responded would tell him a lot about this Kindred.

The Reeve inclined his head towards the ongoing discussion between Raul and the Ghouls. Distinguished Ventrue indeed. It was the first time that Otto had heard the name, as far as he could recall. That didn't mean that it wasn't true, Otto wasn't as on-the-pulse of the Court as he could have been. Still, he wanted to know what the Ghoul would say about his master.

[Raul]

The Savage looks the two ghouls over and nods to them. He also has never heard of this Fuller but then he doesn't care to follow the Lords and their lines too closely. He addresses Goren's inquiry first. "I've only recently gotten back into town after a small hiatus so I can't speak for an exact number, but from what I recall, the clans are fairly evenly represented in the city. The Covenants are less evenly distributed but all Covenants are welcomed in the Alder Prince's domain." he says with a small smile.

He turns slightly to address Mr. Moore this time, "I find this city to be most refreshing. The Prince is also of my clan. She is firm but fair. Her officers are well chosen for their positions. The city itself is a surprising delight."

[Alicia Silvers]

A tad late in the evening perhaps, having spent a far to heavy amount of time making certain she did not have eyes upon her and getting ready alike. Extra caution having become far to common a game for her to play over these recent weeks, changing routines, changing patterns, even more so than usual. Always having been one to not stick to one path but never to this degree, fortunately apps and students could aid a lot still although needing all the more discern than ever before.

Sliding in dressed in a dressed perhaps a tad over representative than usual than usual, raven dark hair put up in their rose pattern, lips painted red, and lenses to make her eyes appear a calmer blue, hating to mask their natural splendor but all to accustomed to the it by now as a soft earthen vanilla scent follows her every step for those taking note of a perfume.

Not needing long before noticing the woman, a sense of relief in that her steps were indeed aimed here in earnest and not in a threat saving her the need to both report of it and anything else for that matter.

Giving a bow of her head to those around in a courteous manner befitting their status one by one until landing upon the perhaps most unexpected sight, slightly cocking her head after its nod whilst searching for the name.
"Mr.Domínguez was it? A pleasure to see you again." And spinning over towards the newly appointed Reeve with a deeper nod befitting his status. "Reeve Priscus Schneider, as always a delight to see you. I hope I am not interrupting anything."
Lastly looking to the new woman with scanning eyes.
"I fear we have not been introduced, I am Alicia Silvers, do tell have you seen me before?" Unfairly testing her perception certainly, yet if she would recognize her from the brief time they passed one another it would be most impressive.

Paying little more than a passing glance to the two ghouls, their talks not the top of her priority.

[Otto Schneider]

Relief found Otto as the Daeva Priscus appeared to intercept the newcomer. The Reeve bowed the appropriate degree for someone of her status and silently thanked the Centurion for sending her along at just the right time. Rather than disengage entirely, however, he decided to play the part of the attentive official. "Ah, lovely to see you this evening, Priscus Silvers." He greeted her warmly, his eyes fixed on the newcomer to gauge her reaction. "This Kindred has introduced herself as Caroline Shaw. She is of your Clan and seeking an Acknowledgment. We had just been discussing her responsibilities in being a part of our Domain when you arrived." How this Succubus responded would be telling, and if Otto was to properly fulfill his role as a Reeve, he would have to start getting to know new faces around town.

The Ventrue glanced over at Raul as he continued to address the Ghoul, nodding slightly in appreciation. The Dragon was, if nothing else, keeping them occupied while his own attention remained elsewhere. His sabbatical hasn't entirely dulled his instincts for intrigue, I see.

[Alicia Silvers]

Flashing of a brief polite small towards the newly appointed Reeve.
"Charmed." And eyes back towards the newcomer. "New blood of my family, how delightful. I know one here whom will be most enthralled to meet her." If they would mesh another tale. Positioning herself to properly keep an eye on them both without dismissing either of the two. "Have you covered anything I should be aware of to not repeat things for her?"

Focusing her look towards the Reeve.
"How has your botanical efforts been progressing, any intriguing new finds or discoveries?" Not having had a chance to hear any progress on the matter for nearly two months now, and admittingly even then it was brief. So many potential applications.

[Raul]

Raúl's Beast stirs as the Daeva Priscus enters Elysia, tugging at it's leash to get at her. He mentally tugs the creature back under control as he gives her a soft smile and returns the nod and greeting, "It is, indeed. A pleasure to see you again as well, Priscus Silvers. I hope you're night is going well.." he says before turning back towards the two ghouls he was addressing. He lets the Succubus go towards the Reeve, knowing she has her own new person to address that evening.

The Dragon knows how to work a crowd. He might not like to do it, but he knows how to spot the people that stick out and assess and try to address their issues before they become problems.

[Seryna]

"I was thinking that you were offering to make the arrangements."The newcomer said with a raised eyebrow to Otto. "If it's an issue," The Daeva had been stating.

Yet Alicia approached and the Kindred redirected her attention.

"Priscus." A deep nod was given to Alicia. "Yes. I was finding my way here to arrange contact with you.

I was curious about the Domain and the Court. Will my presence - that of someone who cultivates contacts and information through social skills - be able to thrive?"
"Reeve Priscus is how you are addressed? The Kindred looks towards Otto. "Thank you for the offer."

"The Officers are Seneschal and Reeve, I believe? The Alder Prince has chosen no Primogen, is that correct?
There are no Hierophant or leader for the Ordul Dracul?" The proxy inquiries politely.
"I imagine that this is a full and bustling Domain?"
His eyes move around the room.
"It seems a bit quieter tonight."

[Otto Schneider]

Otto felt indicated for having waited on the supplicant Daeva's response. Her brash presumption that he would do the necessary legwork for her in ensuring her Acknowledgement was galling. Or it would be, if I were the type to view everyone's actions in the worst light possible. Still, it told him something about how she thought, if only a little.

'Reeve Priscus.' I think not. The Ventrue raised a hand slightly at the address. "Reeve or Priscus, either will suffice. But, yes, a Kindred of social inclinations would find themselves welcome here." The flurry of follow-up questions from the Ghoul across the room drew some inward consternation from the Domain's newest official, but he bore no visible frustration.

"I believe I am nearing a breakthrough." He replied mildly to Alicia's inquiry. In truth, he was starting to lose hope of ever seeing results in his attempts to produce a Mandrake. "If nothing else, I believe one of the more mundane rose bushes in my care will bloom beautifully, soon."

[Alicia Silvers]

A soft look upon the newly returned.
"I cannot complain, how has your travels been?"

Eyes upon her newly arrived cousin with a lightest of motions of the head, more so just to acknowledge her motion than anything else.
"Then here I am." Taking out a piece of paper with her number upon it. "Feel free to contact me and we can go over all your questions to sort your potential acknowledgment within this domain. But to start with yes, socially adept ones can thrive here if they are wise." So that's a no then, good.

Looking upon the Reeve.
"That is lovely to hear, I would be much interested in talking about the results." Roses now that was...something. "What kind of rose bush are you working with? I do hope to get to witness the result."
