Bones frowned deeply into her mug of tea. "The Ashen Woman has stolen my father from me. Let me believe he was dead for twenty years. I will retrieve him, peacefully or otherwise."

[§~Samwise~§]

Sinna went silent and stared at Bones. She turned the mug several times and then lifted it to her lips to drink. "At least that one makes sense to want to kill."

She took a long sip, a hint of knowing in her eyes.

Bones nodded, setting her empty cup to one side. "She is keeping my father, on such a way that I struggle to contact him, even here. I would prefer to get him back without conflict, but I do not back away from a fight."

[§~Samwise~§]

Sinna let the mug sit at her lips and took another sip. There was contemplation as she carefully placed the mug on the table. "Well, communication to the broken wilds isn't the easiest. But she certainly would cling to what she believes is hers."

She turned the mug again, making a gentle grinding sound momentarily. "Do you know the terms? Do you know the why?"

Bones watched the new woman, sitting back in her chair.

"I font know the terms. I have a vague prophecy someone told me. Hence the trip to the Nine Hells. Its a research trip to try and find the exact terms of the contract."

Sinna's nostrils flared and she looked to the mug. There was something rolling behind her eyes. "Perhaps... " She moved her jaw to the side and let her eyes move as she thought. "Give me a moment, please. I'm going to call home."

Her eyes stopped moving and the lids stayed open. She was staring off into some middle distance. In spite of her eyes being open what she saw was a black expanse as she tried to conjure the connection to Baba Kasia to ask her questions. In the void she could feel movement, but couldn't tell if she was going to be successful. "Baba Kasia, I have news and questions. Show yourself and I will regale you."
