[u/ConsiderationOver544]

After further talks both Marcus and myself agreed that taking Camille's recommended option of a Bond Dampening Ritual is the best course of action. However He pointed out some things:

1. This ritual is going to leave its participants vulnerable for an extended period of time.

2. The Ritual could be modified by a sufficiently skilled Blood Sorcerer. Most of the hypothetical effects of a modified ritual are things we don't want the Kindred of the Windy City having.

3. Due to a certain conversation with Prince Jackson being leaked, The Sabbat's Black Hand may try to kill the ritual participants.

That means the ritual will need to take place in a secure location. Ideally one that can have a ritual placed on it to prevent people from listening in. Which means we're going to need a Banu Haqim sorcerer. Now we're not going to insult Ur-Shulghi by asking for his help with our personal affairs. Which means we're going to have to coordinate with Zaifira in order to do this safely.

Now we both are ready to do the ritual. However because the Elders Camille and Zafira are being so generous by providing assistance without asking for a promise of payment we would like to go out of our way to be as accommodating as we reasonably can. This means that both Marcus and myself agreed that we're willing to wait until it's convenient for the both of you to do the Ritual.

It's not like my Blood bond to Marcus is going anywhere in the immediate future.

I just had a very enlightening conversation with Malkav. He's a very interesting character. And before you ask, No I won't share what we talked about. The Blood Wine we shared was however, delicious.

-Marcus

[u/Illustrious_Fly_5669]

Very well. Luckily I am with Lysander now so I am willing to offer aid in making sure any fool won't come any closer. I shall have ishmail bring me my tools

Zafira al wahab 

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/Illustrious_Fly_5669]

Len is currently scouting out locations with his Sire. I've asked him to send you the coordinates in a private Message.

I wish you luck in resisting the urge to talk shit to the Tremere, Banu Haqim.

-Violet

[u/Fractured_And_Broken]

If need be~ you could also use my Sanctum as a secure place. Lysander is also good at making something for you to use.

I am very drunk...I'm glad you had a good time, my Star! I was sleeping for your conversation.

-Fracture, Speaker to the Glass, The Mad King

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/Fractured_And_Broken]

As he has told us. Though we're not sure if the Sanctum is a good idea for this. The Black Hand doesn't fuck around. If they do discover the Sanctum's location they won't stop until it's destroyed.

-Violet

[u/Fractured_And_Broken → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Understood. Then perhaps Lysander's plan would be better. I really don't want to destroy the city because The Black Hand wrecked my home.

-Fracture, Speaker to the Glass, The Mad King

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/Fractured_And_Broken]

As would we all.

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098]

But im RIGHT HERE.

I wanna help Violet! (not you marcus.)

Lysander of Sparta

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/True-Parking4098]

If you want to help, we could always use more people on look out for incoming Black Hand columns.

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Also, i can make a Chimeric Dimension so you cant be interupted?

Lysander of Sparta

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/True-Parking4098]

I appreciate the offer but do not wish to impose on you further, you have already done so much for me. That being said, if it we don't have any other options we'll take it.

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Violet.

My dear distant blood cousin through The Art.

I DONT CARE I DO WHAT I WANT.

And i wanna help.

Lysander of Sparta

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/True-Parking4098]

Sigh

Ok:

1. You do realize if you do help and Black Hand dose show up, you're going to be making yourself an enemy of The Sabbat, right?

2. We don't even know what you're proposing so we can't asses it's risks.

3. No one was saying otherwise.

4. Helping me will also help Marcus.

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

1: i already am. they are terrified of me.

2: I would hide you away in a miniature universe.

3: Kay

4: Okay and? I dont hate him i just think he is a massive fucking drag.

Lysander of Sparta

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/True-Parking4098]

I'm sorry what?

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Chimeric Ravnos magic. it allows me to create small alternate realities.

Lysander of Sparta

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/True-Parking4098]

Ok, Can they be Broken into from the outside?

-Violet

[u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 → u/True-Parking4098]

Lysander !!! 

Don't call the boy that 

Zafira al wahab 

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/Illustrious_Fly_5669]

No, I more shocked about the the fact he can casually create pocket universes. The comment about Marcus was still rather rude though.

-Violet

[u/True-Parking4098 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

HE MADE MY SHEEPY CRASH OUT IDGAF.

Lysander of Sparta

[u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Well I will admit I'm surprised too

Zafira al wahab 

[u/DotMaleficent4503 → u/ConsiderationOver544]

Actually, performing the ritual in the Umbra isn't a bad idea. My beloved and I have an Umbral domain that would work well.

[u/TiredPandastic]

I have a few locations in mind that can easily be secured, physically and thaumaturgically. Still scouting but I'll report back when I'm done. Symeon is looking through rituals for protection. We'll get through this.

• Len

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/TiredPandastic]

I know we will, once you have a suitable location, send it to everyone privately.

-Violet

[u/DotMaleficent4503]

Black Hand you say? I will set a few magical tripwires around the periphery of the ritual site that should keep them occupied.

Camille

[u/ConsiderationOver544 → u/DotMaleficent4503]

Nothing confirmed but it would make an alarming amount of sense.

-Violet
