((were is this?))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:04:08 AM)
[ Right now, the Chantry. But we'll be moving. Easier than changing rooms a hundred times. ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:04:28 AM)
((cool...))
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:05:06 AM)
*Mensonge would be sitting in the chantry,, like he always does. reading some book in his suit and blue silk tie*
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:06:11 AM)
Barnes' office door was open. Inside, he slouched backward in a leather office chair that appeared to be thrice as old as Mensonge, well worn and simple. A green Banker's lamp illuminated the room gently as he thumbed through a tome, refreshing on some course material he'd almost forgotten in his advanced age. His Familiar, an Imp of sorts, plucked a small envelope of ash from the Reagent's area of the Chantry and flapped down the halls to its Master.
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:09:10 AM)
*Mensonge thinks about the path he heard of.. and so he thought he should ask about it.. so he gets up and makes his way to the reagents door.. offering a soft knock* Um... Mr.Barnes.. May I have a minite of your time?
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:09:29 AM)
((I no spellz wellz))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:12:37 AM)
*The Regent tilted forward in the chair and it fell upon the ground briskly, with a dull thwack of wood upon wood. The Familiar perched on the bookshelf behind Barnes and peered at Mensonge, then moved back to a small thimble of Vitae. He set aside the book and lifted his glasses for a better look at the Vampire.* Regent Barnes, Childe. *He chuckled and shook his head, raising his hands to the desk and gesturing to the chair in front of himself.* What is it?
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:16:51 AM)
Oh.. I am truly sorry Regent Barnes. *as he moves to take a seat* Well Regent I have read of a path that seems to intrest myself. Paht of Murcury is it's name. And well I only found one instructer living in the UK... I think. So I thought I would come to you to see if you know of a closer teacher... *as he bows a little to him*
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:19:07 AM)
Oh, I'm aware of the Path. It's of little concern to most in this day and age, but in Aeons past, it was highly advantageous. With Oceanliners and Concord Jets it seems to have fallen out of practice, along with it's practitioners. Those I know of within the Clan who yet maintain some knowledge of it are also in the UK. *He tilted his head and leaned a bit further forward across the desk, peering at Mensonge quietly.* Why seek you this particular one, anyway? Just... a quirk of fancy?
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:23:23 AM)
*he nods a little* I thought it would have it's uses, like a haven that only I can get to. *as he nods again* Well that and the growth of one's mind is always somthing.
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:27:20 AM)
*He nodded several times, considering. A mild shrug as the Regent proved his sweeping knowledge in simple terms.* I can imagine a pocket of earth or the sort deep within, or a walled off room with no entrance. But, one must be well familiar with, or see their destination if memory serves. And Thaumaturgy is a fallible Art, one you're bound to make a mistake on even with the most educated and august of resources when employing it night by night to return home. One cannot imagine the problems that'd occur with intersecting with eight tons of concrete wall instead of your own personal abode. I'd advise against its employ in that nature. But, reaching other locales perhaps. *He nodded, continuing.* As well as extending one's own understanding and ability. I can put you in touch with an old friend from Oxford who was brought into the Clan's ranks many a year ago, if you'd like. But I surmise you'd have to go see him yourself, and even then I cannot guarantee he'd take you on as a student.
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:32:52 AM)
*he nods his head to him a little more* I thank you again. and I will keep in mind the dangers. So may I ask were I can find your friend from Oxford, my Regent. *he bows his head to him again in respect.*
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:38:01 AM)
Douglas, on the Isle of Man. It's a small spit of land between Ireland and England, off the coast of each about equally. His name is Ansley Hurlbert, and he quite literally lives in a castle. I know, quite passé. One of those more... August fellows of our line who chooses to adhere to ancient customs and the sort. He can be eccentric, if he's anything like what I recall. *Barnes chuckled, shaking his head and smoothing back his combover, obviously hearkening back to old times, good times.* Have you means to arrange the travel incognito, Childe?
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:42:45 AM)
*he nods to him a little* I do belive I can get there. But I guess the bigger thing to ask is what would you sujest I bring to offer him in return for this information? *as he thinks a little on how much money he has and if he can get a flight tonight that will keep him at night when he gets there*
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:45:52 AM)
Don't flatter him, for one. Speak straight and quickly. Even if he's spending his nights staring at the sky, concentration is paramount to the Vampire and he'll treat you like an interruption at best and send you off at worst. I doubt he needs much of anything besides a willing pupil, but your guess is as good as mine. Go with an open mind at the very least, Childe. *He nodded, scrawling a bit of information on a business card and passing it across to the Tremere.* Let him know who sent you, and you should be well received enough.
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:48:47 AM)
*he takes the card from him as he nods some* I will go with an open mind, as I always try to. thank you again my Regent. *as he starts to stand a little to bow out*
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:49:03 AM)
((so... to Isle of Man?))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:49:10 AM)
[ Yep! ]
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:49:45 AM)
[ New Orleans to The UK is a bit of a flight. Smuggling in a box, or bouncing off overnight? ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:50:38 AM)
((will I be able to get there in one night? cuz I would be willing to buy a ticket))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:53:21 AM)
[ Doesn't look like, 16H+, and 7-8 grand. ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:55:12 AM)
((Wow.. that sucks... So.. over night fedex? or Smuggling.. *nods*))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:55:44 AM)
[ *Nods* Whatever the case, mildly expensive. Can simply say it's done, but it'll hurt a little and consider the time. ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 12:57:39 AM)
((well it is up to you... I don't mind simply saying it's done.. but again up to you))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 12:59:00 AM)
[ Yeah. It's not a big thing. You're welcome to try to pick him up as a Mentor. We can do a scene for that later on, just request the path and shit. Company just showed up unannounced. ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 1:00:00 AM)
((okay then... you go have fun.. I will put in for the path.. and more then like pick him up as a Mentor*))
Deem. (May 24, 2011 1:00:53 AM)
[ Right on. Good source, etc. Sorry for bailing. *salute* ]
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 1:01:22 AM)
((it is cool... RL first right?
Mensonge (May 24, 2011 1:01:24 AM)

Deem. (May 24, 2011 1:01:38 AM)
[ Mos def. Talk later. =) ]
