Molly just turned up multiple supernatural secrets.
That should activate +2 Essence regeneration.
-We just spent 3 Essence in the bathroom. If we spend 2 more, we'll glow.
Need to keep that in mind.
-Alright, things just got serious. Confirmed subverted:
a)
Maeve, Winter Lady
Daughter of Mab. Fourth most powerful person in Winter after Mother Winter, Mab and the Leanansidhe, and Mab's most likely heir.
b)
Aodh son of Luchtaine.
Luchtaine/Luchta is supposed to be the carpenter and wright of the Tuatha De Danaan. Along with his two brothers, who are also crafters, he is supposed to have made the weapons to battle the Fomorians in Irish myth.
His son would be very highly ranked.
c)
Cathair, First of the Rawheads.
That makes him Eldest Rawhead, like how Arawn was Eldest Ankou. Rawheads are 12 feet tall humanoids, weighing roughly a ton and wearing a grey cape. In Cold Days, The Rawhead, presumably this dude, was part of Maeve's retinue trying to defeat Demonreach.
Which suggests that two of the Nfested are in Maeve's retinue, if not all three.
These are all people of power and influence among the Winter Fae.
Mab has issues.
Which means WE have issues.
-Again the Fomor show up in this mess.
And we haven't even been introduced yet.
-No, we dont tell Lara.
Because she believes there's Outsiders and Outsider allies in her Court, and her Court is compromised enough that someone apparently followed her to a meeting she arranged at short notice.
Until we can use one of her movies as a focus to scan for those, we keep our own counsel.
- *sees invisible creature under veil*
-Possibilities:
- Bodyguard.
- Spy.
- Assassin.
Too close to be a bodyguard IMO, so its either a spy or an assassin.
Could be Fae, could be White Court. White Court cant do the Spiderman thing without equipment, so probably Fae.
Might be Winter or Summer. No idea.
Still probably a dupe obeying what it thinks are lawful orders.
Unless that's a surprise Denarian.
-It raises the question of how Lara Raith is under sufficient surveillance that a meeting arranged at short notice in a shop got a spy. She lives in a home that is presumably warded, even if she doesnt get a threshold.
That there is what appears to be a Fae here suggests one of several things:
=Someone invited a hostile Fae through her threshold and wards to listen to her
=She has a spy/spies listening to her communications
=There is a spy/spies listening to Molly's communications
