She stays silent. She's just being really quiet.

"There are two Thornguards stationed at a back door who will not let anyone past."

Ash narrowed his eyes. "Can we fight our way through?"

"I would not advise it," Grimalkin replied. "It appears some of them are using iron weapons--steel swords and crossbows with iron bolts and such. It would only take one well-placed shot to kill you."


Puck frowned. "Fey using iron weapons? You think Virus has them all bugged?"

"Something far worse, Im afraid." Ashs face was like stone as he stared at the factory. "I was forced into service. Virus didnt give me a choice. The Thornguards are acting on their own. Like Rowan. They want to destroy the Nevernever and give it to the Iron fey."

Pucks eyebrows shot up. "Why?"

" Yes, why would they do that? "

She just continues to be quiet.

(I'm kinda tempted to introduce Malign and Vinn to the group...)

(I mean...you could. The fey would be against it at first)

"Because they think they can become like Virus. They believe its only a matter of time before Faery fades away entirely. So the only way to survive is to become like the Iron fey. They wear a metal ring beneath their gloves to prove their loyalty, and because they think it will make them immune to the effects. But its just killing them slowly."

"Huh. Well, thats...absolutely horrifying." Puck shook his head in disbelief/

"I might have a better idea," Grimalkin said. "There are several glass skylights on the roof of the factory. You could map the layout of the building from there, maybe even see where Virus is."

(who is Maglin and Vinn)

" Thats just stupid. " she muttered. " That could possibly work. "

(That's sorta why I want to do it. That and this is just a good time to introduce them)



She just stays silent.

(...)

"Tonight, it seems the Fates are on our side. There is a window cleaners platform on the far side of the building."

(So should I do it, or...?)\


She just stays quiet.

(im so confused ;-;)

Lise simply nods.
