Islwn shrugged, "She said that, but it is well known humans do what they want. I would imagine not all of your warriors stay at home, but if you are confident, you would be the one with more practical knowledge." He grinned, not at all daunted. It didn't matter to him after all.<br/><br/>Aderyn cocked her head slightly to the side to study Beth, "If I was creating forgetfulness, I feel you wouldn't have added the word subtle. It is less than that. I have not erased us from anything. It seemed to me the woman was spending unnecessary time dwelling upon things that are of no use for her to dwell upon. Still she is free to ponder at will upon mages and vampires and so on. Simply she will find myself less.. interesting. Not gone, just not worth wasting energy on. I don't see danger from that. There are none she will meet who will not blurr their visit in her mind."<br/><br/>One shoulder shrugged, "Lesser can't hide from me. Lesser don't... cast spells. Not in the way you understand. They have an ability. Or really many abilities that differ with their type, but their limit in this is to create... disbelief. They are also tied because they are not able to take advantage of varied energy sources."<br/><br/>Islwyn smirked slightly, "If that is your logic, ignore the lesser. It would be one of us."<br/><br/>Aderyn clicked her tongue, "Well not one of<span style="font-style: italic">us</span>."<br/><br/>Islwyn laughed, "It could be a sidhe who is as your mages are to normal humans. As we don't know what happens to those taken, it could be any type. Unseelie tend to not work well together..." He paused to beam at Aderyn, "... but the seelie, there could be any number."<br/><br/>Aderyn inspected her manicured nails and said thoughtfully, "It would have to be a group if they were of the<span style="font-style: italic">light</span>, if I couldn't tell from here." Her tone mocked the word light. All sidhe fed upon humans, the distinction was always ridiculous to her. A human conceit that they could be safe with some, though she supposed the seelie would generally let their spirit escape intact if nothing else. Sheep for the wool and sheep for mutton were sill sheep. "If it was not, it could be one, but they would have to be on the level of a dubh sidhe." She paused, frowning.<br/><br/>Islwyn sifted uneasily, his usual smile fading. "Why take the lesser at all then?"<br/><br/>Aderyn put her finger against her lips, in a gesture that meant silence. Islwyn paused and then asked, "Then why take vampires?"<br/><br/>Aderyn looked at him, smiled slightly, "You have a point, none of our kind would have a use for a vampire. Of course, the captive could lie, as vampires do. But she did seems to believe that her kind was going missing."<br/><br/>Her gaze shifted to Rattus, "It seems unlikely, but it could be possible. You should hope the case is something else. It doesn't matter, I will still help get you inside undetected. I think you may be attributing more fellow feeling among the sidhe than exists in any case. We mostly stay within our own clans. This is an interesting.. challenge for us."<br/><br/>Islwyn just grinned once more and held his hands out for the case with the gun, "Anything else you needed here?"
