NPC CONTACT

NERISSA BELL & MHAIRI AINSLEY
[personal profile] andernach & [personal profile] fearolc

While the Bonded pair are particularly busy - between their everyday work for the Coven and Parliament, and looking for answers to new arrivals' questions - they've placed a mailbox outside the Coven gates for anyone to leave a letter for them. These can be non-urgent queries, updates for Nessie or Mhairi, requests for in-person appointments, etc.

You can also reach them both by watch now! They've gotten their own, and will answer at their earliest availability. However, if your message or request for them is time sensitive, it's always recommended that you seek them out at the Coven itself, especially to reach Miss Nessie. Relaying messages through Parliament can be difficult, but this is also an option, if Mhairi is currently attending a session.


If you wish to interact with Nessie and Mhairi outside of the intro logs, please comment here. You have the option of handwaving the IC interaction to OOCly ask what questions your character might have for them, for us to summarize an answer for, or you can request an IC thread. Simply specify in your comment's subject IC or OOC, comment to the specific NPC you'd like to contact, and we'll respond accordingly. If you're looking to speak to both, please respond to the toplevel below.

Face-to-face IC interactions are granted in special OOC circumstances, such as follow-ups to quests, investigations, or a previous thread. OOC "handwaving" of a face-to-face interaction is still good to go!

[ Or more accurately, a small, tightly-bound scroll that appears in a small puff of smoke by Yako's bedside one morning. It has the Coven's official seal on it, but the handwriting is bubbly and girlish. Readable, but very much the hand of someone who doesn't care to be fancy. ]

Dearest Miss Yako,

It's wonderful to hear from you! ♡ We're still right sorry we can't be of more help to you lot, but we'll keep doing our best. A place to stay and keeping an eye out for all of you is the least we can do, to begin with.

As for your creatures, that does sound like the infected... but that's awful strange for them to be faeries - we don't have many of those around here anymore, and the ones that do don't tend to go outside of the city. They're a bit more susceptible to the Cwyld, so you know, better safe than sorry for them. It's good to know more about these dreams of yours though, it is! You all had quite a time off in Faeryland or something like it though, didn't you, between those beasties and the faeries people said were in the castle.

I can't say I've heard of the Dewaint Forest either, but I didn't want to reply back with just that and nothing else to help you, so I went looking through the Coven's library. A couple of older journal entries mention it, but it's not on any maps we have currently. If I had the time, I'd scour the rest of the city's libraries and the Parliamentary Records too, since they're our big archival things, but... Well, you know how it is! Guess I'd suggest seeing if you can't poke around any of those places yourself; the Records might be a bit hard to get into right now, but the libraries shouldn't be too bad.

I'll let you know if I wind up finding out anything new too, Miss Yako. Research is a good way to wind down before bed, though I'm sure Mhairi'll scold me if I'm up too late like she always does.

Ever yours,
Miss Nessie ♡

[ Regular snail mail delivery service here, since Yako hasn't learned that letter trick herself yet... but boy does it look handy! Her reply is brief, but warm. Miss Nessie really loves Mhairi, doesn't she... ]

Dear Miss Nessie,

This is more than enough help. I'll see what I can turn up on my own, and I'll let you know if I find anything that seems important. Hopefully I can find someone to help me look into it too.

Thank you again for everything, really. You and Miss Ainsley have been so kind.

Yako Katsuragi
