Asa pulled up to the Dracul chapter house, mind on what Lioni had said. Clearing his thoughts, he got out, and went to the door. Things had changed so much since the last time he was here. What was even more odd was that this was his second visit this month, during a Requiem that had never brought him to the Dragons before.

What could Rahyna... his Seneschal... have to tell him? Asa still wasn't used to that, either.

Rahyna heard someone pull up outside and went to the door she saw Asa and smiled to herself she straightened out what she was wearing and waited for him to come to the door.

Asa approached the door and knocked. If no one answered, he'd have to try calling.

Rahyna opened the door and smiled at Asa she looked around before speaking "Prince Clarke I hope this evening finds you well please come in." she steps to the side to allow him to enter and leads the way to the parlor.

"It does, thank you," Asa said as he followed her. "Does it find you well also, Seneschal?" he asked.

Asa had always enjoyed Rahnyna's manners, and got the feeling it was a fondness they shared.

"It does thank you for asking." Rahyna picks up a glass that was sitting on the table it was one of two and offered it to him "Would you like a drink while we discuss things."

Smiling at him she waits for him to get seated and comfortable before bringing up the state of affairs in the city and all the other unpleasantness that has been going on.

"No, but thank you for asking," Asa replied.

He had gotten to the point where he just put Olivette into a light slumber to feed. Apparently her issues with men were too deep-seated for even the Vinculum to overcome. Useful though; since the Asylum incident, she'd been a model ghoul.

Asa sat, and let himself relax into the chair.

"Did Dr. Brady come by?" he asked.

Rahyna takes the drink herself and puts it to her lips the coppery taste lingering on her tongue a moment before she swallowed it "Yes Dr. Brady is here she is in the library with Shadow right now and I do believe that I heard Mr. Devlan go that way as well."

She sits back herself in one of the chairs in the room "So tell my Prince Clarke what exactly have we decided is the agenda for the city I understand that right now we are gathering information on what people believe is responsible for the attacks on the previous power structure but it has been a few days now and we have not heard word of a Primogen meeting being held or any instructions as to what we should be doing."

She didn't want to seem rude especially to Asa but these were things she had been wondering about and now seemed like a good time to voice them. After sorting through her thoughts once more she adds "I do not mean to sound rude in the least I do understand that you have not had the seat of power very long but if I am to help you through this trying time I need to know what is going on as well and so far I know absolutely nothing other than what was stated at the meeting where you were elected to be our Prince."

Rahyna gives Asa a bright smile as she finishes and takes another sip from the glass in her hand and waits for his response.

"I am sorry, it's probably been a frustrating few days for you," Asa said. "The truth of the matter is, I'm not used to having a second set of hands. We should have spoken after you hosted Court."

"Dr. Brady is here researching what she learned from the remains of Brandon Davis and Icarus," he began. "It's very likely that we are dealing with a very old Kindred, who committed Amaranth. Whether or not Dr. Brady and Shadow can find out more, I have no idea. It was my plan to call the Primogen together once we had that information."

"One thing that would be invaluable," Asa mused, "is if you have any idea of who has the skills to look for clues at the Utilities site or Icarus'. With the Sheriff patrolling the streets, and myself no longer serving as Deputy, we need to find a capable investigator."

Asa looked at Rahyna, waiting to see what she had to say after digesting the information. Diablerie, especially of their Eldest, was shocking news for anyone.

Rahyna shuddered slightly at the mention of diablerie but quickly shook it off before considering her choices for suggestions to an investigator of some sort. "To be honest no one seems to be coming to the fore front of my mind." she stands and paces the room for a moment before retaking her seat she always thought better when she walked around. "I would have to ask Shadow but I think that possibly O-Yamma which she has recently employed as her personal bodyguard and myself may be able to take a look if you have someone that can keep an eye on my back at least." she adds with a slight laugh.

Asa thought carefully. Neither one of the choices he knew of would please Rahyna.

"The two that come to mind are either the Hound, Elle Moiraine, or Arnold Culler, a former Archon of Jackson," Asa elaborated, emphasizing Culler's affiliation with the Invictus.

"Unless there's another candidate? I'd like to think so, because your solution seems ideal," he said.

Rahyna mulled over the suggestions of the prince in her head "Mrs. Moraine needs to be put on a shorter leash I do believe but she is doing well enough at the moment I have no real qualm with her as long as she learns her place." she replays the few times she had to go after her verbally but as a hole the woman was not a bad one.

"As for Mr. Culler I do not personally know him so I have no ill will towards the man if he is your choice then by all means I trust your judgment."
if he is paying attention he would notice that Rahyna cringed slightly at the mention of the word Archon but quickly recovered with a smile on her face but it did not meet her eyes as it usually did.

"I think he's the best choice," Asa replied. "He'll only be there for your protection, and you are the Seneschal of Sacramento." He still didn't know what her tattoo was a reminder of, but he hoped she realized this wasn't some political bullshit.

"Ultimately, it's your decision, though. If he would make you uncomfortable, then you're going to have a hard time concentrating on finding clues. So, if not him, feel free to call the Hound or use someone else," Asa offered.

Rahyna looks at Asa "Well if you feel he would be best then as I said I trust your judgment." she thought about the comment he had made about her being uncomfortable was she that transparent "What makes you think that Mr. Culler would make me uncomfortable I don't even know the man other than his name?" she questioned hoping this conversation would not go off track to much.

Asa shrugged. He was good at reading people... most people, that is.

"You... reacted, when I used the word 'Archon'," he said simply. If she wanted to elaborate, she could; he just didn't feel like they knew each other well enough to ask what seemed like a personal question.

Rahyna mentally waves the comment away not wanting to deal with that particular road when there were more pressing concerns to the city than her reaction to a word "Well then it is settled Prince Clarke I will talk to Shadow and get her permission to take O-Yamma with us and you can contact Mr. Culler and we will go investigate the scenes of the attacks." she pauses for a moment "I am to understand then that we will be having a Primogen meeting soon after Harpy Brady and Primogen Devlan are done with their research?"

"Yes, although it will wait for your return, of course," Asa said. Aside from being Seneschal, she might find something useful.

"I will let Mr. Culler know he is to make himself available to you," he agreed. Was she uncomfortable enough that she wanted the former Archon to hear it from the Prince himself?

"Shall we check on their progress? Or leave them be and let Dr. Brady inform me, and Shadow inform you, of what they find?" Asa asked.

"Well let me call Shadow now to make sure it is ok for me to take O-Yamma from her for a while and I will find out how their progress is going." she pulls out her phone and proceeds to punch buttons to dial Shadow's number.

While she is waiting for Shadow to answer she looks at Asa "Will you be escorting us to these scenes I am not sure I know exactly where they all are." she knew where Karsh's was but was not a hundred percent on the Princes exact location so she figured it would be better to ask then look as though she knew more than she did.

"I'll give Arnold the information," Asa said. He knew the man had been to Icarus' apartment already, and directions to the Utilities weren't that difficult.

He waited patiently for Rahyna to complete her call, relaxing in the chair. The past week had been... eventful. He pulled out his phone and sent a quick text to the former Archon of Jackson, Mississippi.

Once Rahyna finishes her conversation with Sahdow she puts her phone down on one of the side tables and focuses her attention back on Asa "Prince Clarke according to Shadow the utillities division has already been cleaned it is after all a place of buisness but if you wish we will still take a look at it." she smiles at him hoping she did not have to go all over hell and highwater this evening "As for the other places I will be more than happy to look around them."

Asa nodded as he tucked away his phone. "Yes, please, I don't think it will take long. It's room 302 at the Sterling. Arnold Culler is on his way here. By the time you're finished there, Dr. Brady and Shadow should be done and I'll call the Primogen together."

"Also, you should know that Primogen Inquisitor Orchid brought me a new arrival to acknowledge. She's a Mekhet named Cassie, and appears to have been ten or twelve when Embraced," Asa said as they waited for Arnold and O-Yama. "She seems to be one of the strong Predators that have recently popped up," he added.

Rahyna herself... felt... different. Asa couldn't tell if that was truly her, or his own Beast growing in power and responding differently to others.

"Another child in the city well that is interesting and to be strong that is impressive maybe her and Valencia can meet at some point I think it might do her some good to have another child around even if they aren't mentally a child anymore." Rhayna gets up to walk around a bit as she waited for Arnold Culler to show up and then she realized she needed to get ahold of O-Yamma so she walked over and picked her phone back up and sent him a text.

O-Yama arrives and finds Seneschal Rahyna and Prince Asa waiting. He nods dutifully to the Seneschal, and gives the Prince a small bow.

"Good evening, Seneschal, Prince Clarke."

Rahyna smiles at O-Yama as he enters "Good evening O-Yama thank you for your quick response, we are waiting for one more person and we will be able to go and get this done with, I appreciate your help as well."

Turning to Asa she looks at him and smiles "So when will your Archon be here Prince Clarke."

Arnold arrives at the chapter house, finding his way to where the others are gathering. His attire consists of a buttoned white shirt, red suspenders, with black pants and shoes. He extends a small bow to the Prince and, turning to Rahyna, gives another small bow. His voice is deep, and smooth despite his appearance.

"Arnold Culler, madame. At your service."

"Here he is," Asa said with a smile, looking at the nearly seven foot tall man.

If this went well, he would as the Sheriff or whomever had replaced Karsh to see how well Culler could handle himself. Options were always good things.

"Mr. Culler, this is Seneschal Rahyna and O-Yama Hatori," Asa indicated each.

Rahyna looks up at the man and smiles at him "Mr. Culler thank you for joining us on such short notice." she had not expected a person quite this big but it was nothing that she wasn't use to so her reaction was minimal at best and didn't show at all.

"If we are ready then we can go and take care of this so that we can hopefully figure out who or what is responsible for the upheaval of the city."

Rahyna bid Asa farewell "I will call you when we are done so that you can call our next meeting Prince Clarke." she gave him a smile as she said the last part and turned towards the two people in the room.

"OK Mr. Culler I am to understand that you know where we are headed so if you would like we can all get going the sooner we finish this the sooner we can hopefully know who or what we are dealing with." she looks at O-Yamma then "Do you have everything you need Mr. Hatori?"

Arnold curtly returns O-Yama's nod.

Arnold took notice of Rahyna's casual acceptance of his size and the severity of his deformity, finding it a refreshing change from the attention he got from most people.

He responds to her thanking him for arriving on short notice. "Think nothing of it and, please, call me Arnold. I'm eager to help."

He, too, bids the Prince farewell then to Rahyna: "I know where we are going. I'm ready whenever you two are."

"As soon as Mr. Hatori is ready to go you may lead the way Mr. Culler." she smiles at him again and turns to O-Yamma waiting for him to say that he is ready to go.
