As usual, the white-haired man was watching the portal disguised in silvered glass. When it flared, he gestured and a dark form went from the room at a rapid pace. There was a pair to be found, and the Virkyn sent to do it would find them. Meanwhile, Umbrosus walked to the glass, nodded his greeting and smiled gently at the woman on the other side. He recognized her, of course, for all that her ears were tapered like an elves. It never ceased to amaze him how their human blood had mingled with others over the course of time.
There was even odder combinations, if truth be told.
But as the man gazed at her wondering, the door burst open, Nymira rushed in, and her palm was cut in good order. Pressed to the glass the blood mingled with the magic, and both women found themselves face to face. Nymira was... far more familiar to Jade than a bondmate might have had a right too be, but it was nothing the Sanguine's little sister in the past would be aware of.
"Jade!" Nymira said, rushing forward and throwing her arms around Jade's neck to hug her. "How have you been? Gods you look fierce... what in the world have you been doing?"
