The afternoon air is brisk, and heavy with moisture.
Walking pedestrians pass by on the sidewalk, and a seabird calls out from above far diverted from it's usual home. There's the museum.

John heads off from the museum south. he heads into the nearest fast food restaurant and into the bathroom. Alone in the bathroom he yanks at the familiar threads of space pulling himself back to houston.
01-22 02:16:35
John Dee rolls 9 dice to Portal Attain intimate -2 4 successes
10,1,7,5,9, 7,8,8,1,3
John heads into his office. The dirty little place is amazing clean in comparison to other junkyard's offices, but none the less still dirty. The daily crushing of concrete kept a fine gritty film on most everything.
He sat down and penned the two letters he composed over lunch. Things were not right and it was time to take steps to fix them.
He carefully folded the letters and placed each one in an envelope and sealed them. Now for the basket he thought.
It was a five minute drive to a Spec's Liquor store. Here he had the clerk customize him a gift basket of wines, cheeses, and chocolates to the tune of $200. John had one of the letters he wrote placed in the basket prior to it being wrapped in the fancy clear plastic.
With the gift basket in hand he headed back to the yard.

John looks closer at the folded magicks that the front guard wears around himself.
A shroud of grim rot writhes about his person, tendrils feeling nimbly outwards. It appears to be a Death spell, not something Dee is terribly familiar with. Layered beneath it, a Mind spell whirls in action, like gears and spindles turning to produce extra processing power for his mind.
The last spell happens to be Mage Sight, Dee's Angle Vision spell seeps out around the corner and risks catching the guard's attention.

Dee drops his angle vision and heads over to the hotel. He approaches casually and slowly. Giving the guard ample to to approach him if he so desires.
If unhindered I will enter and go to the front desk or a bell hop.

The young man in the red bell hop attire notices Dee immediately.
"Hello sir. I'm going to have to ask you to identify yourself. We have pretty strict new security protocols now."

John says with a smile"Good day, I am John Dee and I have a package here for Calligan Wellmer is all. If I can leave it with you I will be going." John offers the wine basket to the man.

"Oh, hello Mr Dee. Uh, yes I can take it if you like. Mr Wellmer is in though, in case you'd like to speak to him. I think he was actually looking for you, I think."

"Thank you, I have already interrupted once uninvited I would not presume to do so again. There is a letter enclosed I would like him to read, after that if he would still like to talk I am at his disposal." Dee says. He smiles again and turns to leave.
Dee felt a bit better, he was a step closer to putting that ugly affair to bed.
The Letter:
Emissary Calligan Wellmer,
Emissary I would like to apologize for my actions the other day. I was operating under the incorrect pretense that there were no pentacle mages left in Sacramento due to my own blundering. Thus the undue intrusion as I inappropriately assumed I had stumbled upon a rogue mage. No mater my reasoning you where still wronged by my miscalculations.
I hope in time my actions and work for Sacramento under The Consilium of Northern California’s mandates will help to fade the memory this grievous misstep of mine.
As a token of my sincerity please accept this assortment of fruit, cheeses, and a few bottles of wine that compliment the selection.
Respectfully,
John Dee _________________ Nothing is random, we just don't understand the variables.

The Apprentice takes the package, bows respectfully to his elder, and heads inside to deliver it.

Dee heads off down the street, looking on his iPhone to see how long a walk it is from here to the museum. He needed sometime to himself.
He walks the short distance, and heads in to see Excavator Primoria. _________________ Nothing is random, we just don't understand the variables.

"Sure, Dee come on in."
Note: Tyria already knows the content of John's letter. Such are the Acanthus. You can post it or PM me if you'd like.

I have a matter I would like you to look into Excavator when you can. Thank you. Dee hands her the letter and turns to leave.
The Letter
Excavator Tyria Primoria,
I am concerned about the state of the Mysterium and my work here in Sacramento. I am uncertain on why I would be sent to Sacramento to investigate the disappearance of the awakened community. It was not until after my investigation of the Free Council Sanctum (which I was not informed existed), that I was informed to contact you. I had no idea there was another Mystagogue in Sacramento let alone that The Celestial Hoarders still existed.
I cannot fathom why I would be sent in with at best with a horrid lack of information or at worst intentional blind. I feel that some type of internal investigation is called for. As I have been demoted I am in no position to head something of this nature up.
I appreciate your immediate attention to this urgent matter.
Respectfully,
John Dee _________________ Nothing is random, we just don't understand the variables.

"John, wait. I've read your letter, or at least I will, and I know exactly who is to blame for this."
"It's my fault. I spend all of my time doing research in the office, and I don't work very often with people from the field. It's a different mindset, and I didn't even consider how you would have reacted, nor especially the immediacy of your arrival. I want to apologize to you. We're going to see about reinstating you, and as long as Calligan Welmer isn't holding a grudge, I'm sure it will go through."

Thank you and I am pleased we can move forward. I will be more careful in the future. Dee heads out of her office and back down to the room he and Rune had been in.
There were a number of loose ends to go toward. I wonder which way Rune wants to approach this? _________________ Nothing is random, we just don't understand the variables.
