The Countess continued to walk away, hips swaying. "I hear from the Captain, that you're from the countryside? Perhaps someone more at home with the less urban environment would be best for you..."<br/><br/>The countess seemed to be deciding Carmen's fate, without much input from Carmen herself. "Is that how you see it? Superpowers? Dear child if you ever tell me what superpowers a goblin has do tell me... and smelling foul does not count."<br/><br/>She paused at a door, larger than Carmen would expect inside a building, and paused allowing the sound of a busy room to seep through, before sighing and elegantly bending over to pick up a large white feather. "Ah... Sarah seems to be shedding again. Take it please?"<br/><br/>She holds the elegant feather at arms length and it seems to sparkle, "Don't worry if you're not a demon or undead it's quite safe... now, go through the door and ask for John, he's our computer technician. Tell him, I'm partnering you with Halla."<br/><br/>The countess turned and walked away leaving Carmen alone outside the door. as she reached another door she turned, and gave an elegant salute, "And welcome to the city child."<br/><br/>
