A night's search has been lost to a ritual that led you on a merry chase, and then interaction with a spirit who seemed reluctant to take your part in the matter, though he offered advice. Morning has come, and the next step is yours.
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 10:41:44 PM)
Krys found a quiet place within just outside the bawn and some where private to work. She has spent the morning preparing the rite of summoning (2hours), having Doug watch her back as she worked. (Roll incoming)

It does not take long before they are joined by a figure who paces out of the Umbral wood's mists unhurriedly. He is tall, broad of shoulder, and classically handsome, with a strong chin, dark auburn hair touched with distinguished white at the temples, and bright blue eyes undimmed by even the faint, faded texture of many spirits. He wears torn jeans and boots, but his chest is bare save for a swirling pattern of knotwork tattoos that cover his shoulders and pectoral muscles. His Rage is palpable, seething just below the surface.
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 10:56:19 PM)
She watches him, her anscestor and a hero to the tribe. she had to remind herself exactly why they were here to not look at him in awe. When he gets close she speaks, "Greetings Honorable Song of Winter-Rhya, thank you for heeding my call."
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 10:57:51 PM)
*he offers a bow to Song casting his one down out of respect*
Matthew Brown (Aug 13, 2010 10:58:42 PM)
*LIke wise he tips his hat to the spirit.* Howdy.
Golden (Aug 13, 2010 10:59:01 PM)
Even with his Rage, like so many of the tribe's Galliards, he possesses a natural charisma and visual appeal that draws the eye. It is not difficult to imagine him as an object of desire, by any woman...or man...despite that implicit threat. "You have asked, blessed Child of Stag, and I have answered," he says gravely, his blue eyes hard, but a modicum of respect in his tone. "For what purpose have you called?"

"I have come to ask you a question of importance if you will honor me with such an answer. I am interested in knowing of your kinfolk, Jennifer Hill and your story with her."
Song of Rage (Aug 13, 2010 11:04:30 PM)
"Many tales I told in life, and many songs sung - before the moot fires, in the heat of battle, and among Stag's children. But nothing of that woman deserves a story, save a story of warning. Shall I warn you?"
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:05:57 PM)
"Please pass on your waring, My packmates will listen to if you wish it."
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:06:01 PM)

Song of Rage (Aug 13, 2010 11:13:37 PM)
"We may love our Kin well - too well - but perhaps we do not teach them enough," he says bitterly. "When I was a younger man, and she was far younger still, I thought her everything I might want in a mate - clever and decorative, and of good family, if not the finest breeding." His eyes go distant as he recalls, but his voice remains practiced and oddly restrained as he speaks. "When we were mated, she was overjoyed. But, for whatever her reasons, I was not enough for her, and her restlessness grew as she bore me no children. She did little enough of what I asked her - simple things, tending our home, working a job with other Kin to bring in money for our needs and the human things I could not be bothered with, nor could manage even if I cared."
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:14:52 PM)
She was still and quiet as he spoke, listening carefully.
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:17:05 PM)
*he nods a knowing nod* I understand. More than I would care admit to. And when she wouldn't. What would you do?
Matthew Brown (Aug 13, 2010 11:18:30 PM)
*He thought about that and how lucky he was to have Lenore willing to work as hard as he does.*
Song of Rage (Aug 13, 2010 11:19:16 PM)
"She goaded me, she refused to shoulder the responsibilities given her. I tired of arguing with her, of debating her, of her surly manner. She provoked my Rage unwisely, and it became my duty to force her to her own. She grew only more wild when I told her I would seek out another woman to bear my children. I would not set her aside, I would not dishonor our mating, but I had to do my duty to the tribe. If her womb was barren, I would get her my children to raise another way. She refused. That, and too many other times, I reprimanded her with the back of my hand. It was the only way to keep her from dishonoring herself, me, and the tribe."

*he nods* We can't have shame in the house of Stag.
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:23:49 PM)
Tell me Honored one. Did you end up with offspring either by her or others before you met your glory?
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:26:12 PM)
"She chafed at her responsibilities...well, so too do we all, sometimes." He looks at each of the Garou in turn. "It is no excuse. I died serving the tribe, and this sept. And that is my warning to you. Do not let your Kin expect their responsibilities to be only happiness and fulfillment. For they are often ugly, only sometimes the stuff of story and legend, for both them, and for us." He shook his head. "No. I did take another woman as a sometime lover in the last months of my life, but no children came of it."
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:29:11 PM)
"Song of Winter-rhya. In your last days with your kin, did you notice anyone she was hanging around with more, any other unruly kind that drew the ire of their mates?"
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:30:14 PM)
He frowned and shook his head. "No. By then, she was begrudgingly taking on her duties as I forced her to. She had no time for gossip."
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:31:19 PM)
Tell me about your tecnique.. I find my self often at wits end with my kinfolk. And my alphas.
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:33:15 PM)
"It is an ugly business, little brother. Letting slip the Rage, just a little, to cut disobedience with fear. A sharp strike to the face to cut off the complaint that would make the Rage too hard to control. Better a bruise than her life, but it is a rare one who understand."
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:34:09 PM)
Did you keep her captive? Chained so that she would know to fear you?
Matthew Brown (Aug 13, 2010 11:34:36 PM)
*He grunts a little listening to the story. He rests his gun on his shoulder and silently wishes he had some chew.*
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:35:47 PM)
"Chains? Too much trouble, and counterproductive," he grunts. "What, did you truly summon me for advice on *this* ugly business?"
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:37:32 PM)
"Speaking Honestly Song of Winter Rhya, your kinfolk has been seen with a possible skindancer. She is apart of a movement that brainwashes good kin into thinking we are the enemy. We need to know as much about her as we can learn so we can try our best to help her before we get the order to end her."
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:40:55 PM)
"Foolish woman," he spat, his teeth showing in a silent snarl. "So she found her way free of her responsibilities with my death, did she? Ungrateful bitch. You see? You see? This is what happens when they don't understand, when they think this life *is* the great stories."
Matthew Brown (Aug 13, 2010 11:42:37 PM)
They forget all the hard work that has to be done behind the stories.
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:43:18 PM)
*he nods slowly* And we come to you out of fear, fear that her lies and her taint will spread to other kinfolk. We wish either to help her learn, or to help her to her end. We can't lose more kin because of her... misunderstanding. We need them as much as they need us... No army marches without cooks and clerks as the saying goes.
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:45:24 PM)
"What do you want from me? What do you need to know?"
Krystal Hamilton (Aug 13, 2010 11:48:40 PM)
"Everything you can tell us about her, and her upbringing things that could give us an insight into her mind, and any details only you would know. Also do you have any messages for her once we do find her?"
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:51:14 PM)
Also if you could surmise a name of the skin dancer, from what we can tell they were close. One would assume she would have known him when you were with her.
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:53:15 PM)
"Her parents are...were? I don't know, they lived when I died, as far as I know...her parents are both Kin, and they live not far from here. She has a sister, as well. Younger. She was not mated, and worked in the city, last I knew. Her name...Emily, I think. I know little of Jenny's childhood. It seemed normal enough, as she had no close Garou relatives. Her parents are neither rich nor poor. Her mother I knew little...a timid woman, she could not stand to be near me. Her father was a hardworking man, strong enough of will to converse with me a little at times. A good man, John Hill. A loyal Kin."
Douglas Flannagan (Aug 13, 2010 11:54:21 PM)
any other brothers or lovers?
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:55:22 PM)
"While she was an ungrateful bitch of a Kin, I know of no Kin here from when I lived who I would believe such actions," he rumbled, Rage almost visibly steaming off him at the suggestion of a skindancer.
Song of Winter (Aug 13, 2010 11:55:36 PM)
(who I believe WOULD TAKE such actions, pardon.)
