A stumbled upon Tremere scene

Kristana Shawl: *she drives to the chantry on the night of the appointment.. entering it with the soft word to lower the ward as she enters..she moves to morgana;s office*

Morgana LaFaye: *why is it that single old ladies collect cats? Or is it the chantry that collects them, and Morgana only cares for them because they are there? But she sits in a chair reading with a calico cat on her lap. Another scoots around the corner and out of the room as Kristana enters. She places a bookmark into the book and sets it on the table next to the chair* Welcome Kristana.


Kristana Shawl: *she smiles faintly.. she has become harder and more focused in recent nights.. perhaps she is finally accepted her blood.. she is tremere.. there is no way to change that fact.. so why try?...perhaps she is finally coming into her own right..her own power.. who knows.. but several things have changed..* Thank you for this meeting Maga

Morgana LaFaye: You thank me for requiring a progress report? *she shifts and the cat jumps down and moves to find another place to settle* Or are other things on your mind?

Kristana Shawl: *she smiles faintly*..its no harm really to take advantage of a meeting such as this.. unless you are busy though?

Morgana LaFaye: Sit sit. Before you jumble your words further. It is the time you were to be here. *waves Kristana to the chair beside hers*

Kristana Shawl: *she chuckles and takes her seat, her eyes running over the room briefly*

Morgana LaFaye: *It's a ever present library that seem to be the center of most chantries. but the collections here seem older, better kept than most.*

Kristana Shawl: You have a lovely library...

Morgana LaFaye: Kristana .. what is on your mind. Word has it you've been on a wild ride of late. What are your ambitions here in Detroit girl?

Kristana Shawl: *She rae at Morgana's words*... wild ride? *her eyes searches the face of the maga.. and she wonders where is her fear of her own blood...gone with raven's admonishment...* what have you heard about the wild ride maga? *bypassing the ambition.. she needs to think on that*

Morgana LaFaye: Heard. Nothing. But you go missing for weeks. Then you choose to teach Mr. Sullivan at your place rather than here. And the undercurrents at your place the other night were not something one could ignore.

Kristana Shawl: ah..*her eyes slid around to the library* oh you know how things can become on the outside...constantly filled with one kind of drama or another

Kristana Shawl: *her answer is rather calm. casual.. as if the month of torment din't exist.. or worse stil the pain of amano's leaving matters little to her..* The reason I taught Mr Sullivan outside the chantry is because I want him to clear his head of being enclosed in these walls... he could only think within the box, hence, the shop was something to throw him out of his comfort zone

Morgana LaFaye: And that is not going well? He still can only think inside the box?
Kristana Shawl: I think he is about to make some progress.. I still have some hope for the boy. I do not think he likes me much and prefers to be open and seek Amanda's counsel instead of questioning me

Morgana LaFaye: Amanda? He is aware that she can only teach him limited knowledge. She is sadly lacking in blood magic skills. But then again, she may be able to teach him to think.
Kristana Shawl: I think he is rather enamoured with the fact that she appears to hold a great deal of freedom...I think she would do well to teach him to think... I am trying to get him to understand the fundamental of magic... he keeps thinking too much in formulas but not the spirit of it

Morgana LaFaye: *shakes her head* You are aware that magic was much more previelent in the dark ages? Science and technology has stifled mans creativeness with facts. Theodore is a product of these times. The best Tremere come from the legacy of Magi. But I sometime wonder that the trade off of losing the spake it worth eterity to relearn.

Kristana Shawl: *she shrugs* from what i understood of the magi and of our own house.. the magic was dying.. at least this.. type of magic will last longer than our forebears

Morgana LaFaye: So it was believed. I was not there at the beginning of Clan Tremere. I only know what I have been told.

Kristana Shawl: *she nods* as have I...whatever will be ..will be.. we do with we have and improve on it
Kristana Shawl: which leads me to the reason i am here...I think i am ready to undergo training to reach the next level of mysteries

Morgana LaFaye: Indeed? *smiles at her* And how would you use that level to help the pyrimid grow? Or would it be intirely personally growth?

Kristana Shawl: firstly.. working towards the next level of mysteries is what the clan as a whole needs..the more strong its members, the more powerful the pyramid becomes...In this place, we cannot afford weakness

Morgana LaFaye: Then we will have to see what we can teach you. But the issue of your outside ties much be clearly stated. Can you walk away from the outside if you must. Or will you hold to it against the odds?

Kristana Shawl: It is not unheard of for one such as us to hold that kind of ties.. it bears a great deal of benefit than being detrimental to my development or the safety of the secrets we have.. and on a personal note.. it maintain the little tie i have to my heart and soul. I have seen my many mentors fall into our special brand of derangement when they lose what little theyhave of their humanity. *she looks away*.. I am wishingto maintain the aspect that gives my magic its strength

Morgana LaFaye: *she stands and moves to Kirstana, lifting her face to look into her eyes still* Very very few ever understand the strength there humanity lends them. That you learned it so young is impressive. *she releases her face and clicks her tongue as she returns to her seat, the calico cat finds its way into her lap as she sits* We will have to see about increasing your responsibilities.

Kristana Shawl: *she says nothin in response to what she said and nods, her thoughts being quiet for now before she answers* That would be nice maga

Morgana LaFaye: Now then, what are you studying to increase currently? Or is there something you wish to learn you do not know yet?

Kristana Shawl: I do wish to learn something I do not know. At the moment I am slowly learning to the more active and aggressive of our magicks..

Morgana LaFaye: Ask? I have offered you anything I know before. With the caviate some of it will take centuries to learn.... *smiles* What would you start with?

Kristana Shawl: How could I ask if I do not know what to ask for.. *she smiles a litte.. her eyes sudenly haunted for a brief moment* I do not intend to leave this life anytime soon...I'd like to start with the more defensive and aggresive magicks.. alot of what I know is passive.. and considering the month i have had.. I'd rathr be more stronger in defending and protecing myself
Kristana Shawl: (gtg.. sorry.. bros need me at their gridironggame) *she smiles faintly and stands*.. I'll come back to you witha full progress report on what I know and use and we can perhaps see if I can be taught .. *she nods respectfully8 again.. thank you ofor this meeting maga

Morgana LaFaye: (sok... )I'll look into what might best help you. Good evening Kristana.
