	[color=2956b2][b][i]Annan:[/i][/b][/color]  There was a bit of a smirk that came from the Lady Kirkpatrick. [color=f7976a]"The better question to ask was how I got out of it. I twas poor than dirt under your nails after a hard days work growing up. There weren't no money. Weren't no fine silks and laces. Sure we had a title but what good is a title if there is no money? Damn Brits took alls we had long b'fore I was along. Yet, a woman knows what to do to get ahead, evens if the mens only knows how to survive."[/color] It was odd but yet fitting that the formal tone faded away and a more street language started coming from Sally as she spoke of her past. 

	[color=f7976a]"You dos whatevers you got to. How evers you got to. then you nevers forget where you cames from. You can lost title and have no means to maintain, you can lose title and have money which means no crown influence. Been through both and I'll be damned if I go back."[/color] She went quiet for a moment as the girl brought in her food and waited for an order from Maeve before hustling back to the kitchen. 

	[color=f7976a]"See, that girl, she has no ambition. Perhaps she wants a husband and kids, but she doesn't want power. Money sure, we all want money, but she doesn't want power."[/color] Shoving a blood sausage piece in her mouth she looked over to Maeve and huffed. [color=f7976a]"Bloody girl will probably never get it. You on the other hand, you want more than money but I will tell you this little lady. if you don't want it for yourself you'll never get it. Do fer yerself first, then you can take care of others."[/color]

	Picking up her tea cup she took another drink before setting it down. [color=f7976a]"I got to where I am by doing what I had to fer me. Now I can move my clan forward and others. Like the ones I sponsor."[/color]

	[color=2956b2][b][i]London:[/i][/b][/color] A circus a circus, everyone loves a circus, and a ring, put a ring on it, if you love it that is. The walls, the walls were high, they were thick, they were strong but Ludwig just grinned a goofy grin as his eyes squinted. [color=fdc68a]"Not yet but.."[/color] he said, the grin faded as he spoke and he got a much more serious expression on his face. [color=fdc68a]"The walls can come a tumbling down. Down and down they go, down the rabbit hole. And through, through the knight pushed, taking the rook down as he went. Kings will sacrifice their queens to be safe but the queens sacrifice themselves to push the pawns through the walls of Jericho."[/color]

	Apparently he could never give a straight answer but in his words there was sense, if one could only find the tree for the forest. And down he went to his knees, pulling rocks and sticks from the ground as Dieter, his ferret not his brother rushed over to him and up to his shoulder. And he worked. With each stone and stick, sticks and stones. It was a rough model of London and the wall.

	[color=fdc68a]"London bridge is falling down falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady,"[/color] he sun as he pulled out his journal and drew once the scene was set. As he drew the pieces the moved, to the wall, to the tower, taking the tower down and setting off a domino effect that opened the wall. [color=fdc68a]"Those from under the big tent can go above the ten, and to the top of the wall. Dash away, dash away, dash away all."[/color] 

	[color=2956b2][b][i]Manchester:[/i][/b][/color] Gerard could easily see the anger in his eyes but he did not react. Gerard only said what he felt was needed. "I do not do what I need, if I did I would have taken Milli away many moons ago and freed her from the wretched folk she was forced to call family. Would have searched for her father. I do what is needed of me and Millicent has given up everything for her family, so I will go protect them as she has. Giving up what I need for what she needs," he said calmly before looking over towards Colette. 

	"I wish you the best Lady Fontaine, if you do find her, please give her this," he said as he pulled from his pocket a small worn cotton handkerchief, a few small threads in the corner that spelled out G.C. "Let her know I will keep her family safe." After handing it over he shoved his hands in his pockets and started off towards the church to see what he could do to help until the next morning came. Then he would head out for London and get the Wyndhams back to Bedfordshire under his protection. This wasn't about what he wanted, this was about what he knew Millicent would want from him.  

	[color=2956b2][b][i]Nottingham:[/i][/b][/color] Veta looked over towards Mary and gave her a kind smile. [color=a187be]"Yes of course. Please do. Vould be helpful, very helpful."[/color] Sitting down as they were motioned to do so by those that had been attacked she gave her thanks to them. Food was ordered and she listened. 

	"Yes, a triple threat, the air got cold, fires broke out. The entire town was under siege. I do not know about any that fought, we ran from our home as quickly as we could. We were supposed to attend a gathering at Lord Eagertons home at Heaton Hall but we opted to abstain from the events. The town was ablaze in the distance as we flee for our lives."

	This did not sit well with Veta but still she was having no visions so she took that as a good sign. God would not push them forward if there was nothing they could do. They just had to stay true to their path. And then there was always Virginia. Perhaps her skills could help. Perhaps she would be able to see something once they could be alone after a meal.
