Saya, Hagi... please wait to hear from me. Try to rest as best as possible Hagi, hopefully we'll have you back to normal soon...

Lilith, I'll be needing to take the day off for important business concerning my patient. ~~Hopefully, I will return tomorrow.~~

[ARTEMIS FILTER]

Mr. Reed and Mr. Dylandy, if you could both take time out of your busy schedules and attend me, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I have a rather interesting case that I'm working on... a patient that I wish to restore to full health. Considering the gravity of his wounds, I shall be taking a different approach to this matter, although I'm confident that the results we can gain from this will benefit not only this individual, but our own efforts within the company.

Can you spare a moment of your time?

[DEITY FILTER// Unhackable// Viewable (hopefully) by CLOW REED & LYLE DYLANDY]

I'd like to negotiate a deal with you...

[ooc: I'd like to keep the information that reaches Clow, and Lyle limited if the deity would even allow the eavesdropping. Up to whoever would reply as to what they'd prefer to do.]

In just that one sentence, his had his undivided attention. His heart leaped at the thought that it was even possible. "My lady..."

Smiling warmly he reached out and took her hand in his... "How can I ever repay you?"

That was a good question, one that made him falter slightly in his enthusiasm. But then again, what could Lady Basene want that would even come close to Sabine's request. His expression only sobered slightly, but the smile remained fixed from years of practice. "Is there... anything that would make up for such a gift?"

He had no idea but she actually had just what she wanted. A smile made her lips curl upwards as she watched him. The sudden enthusiasm was cute. Perhaps one day she'd find another use for him. Until then, she needed him to be researching ways to get out of here.

But wait...

"There is one way. It might even interest you. There is a man who visits my establishment. His luck is extraordinary. Unnaturally so. I have been interested in seeing where this luck comes from." A partial lie but he would never know that. "Perhaps that would interest you too?"

"Luck?"

Luck was something intangible, a faint whispering of the wind. Nothing that could be bottled or studied...

Still, Solomon was always curious about new things. It was what had made the last century of his life bearable. "And who is this person?"

Releasing her hand, he crossed around to sit at his desk. His mind had already raced ahead to thinking of what items would be necessary to acquire the tissue sample that Lady Basene had requested.

"His name is Matrim Cauthon. Most everyone knows him as Mat. He gambles at my establishment. It's quite interesting since I know he doesn't cheat. And yet, he has never lost a dice game."

Her fingers toyed with her necklaces. It was about time she got someone to recognize her enemy.

"Also, I have learned something about him during the curses here. He has memories from hundreds of years..." She paused and smiled. "...from hundreds of men who are not himself."

That caught his interest. Solomon's head quirked slightly, his thoughts distracted momentarily from his upcoming plans.

"Hundreds? That is interesting. Very well, I'll be more than happy to take a look at him for you. But, after Hagi has been restored. I hope that will be alright with you..."

"Naturally. I would be surprised if you abandoned your brother so rapidly." She smiled then rose to her feet. A gateway back to her rooms at The Den appeared behind her. Like a hole had just opened.

"Let me know when you have the sample tissue."

He stared in rapt attention at the portal behind her. It was amazing seeing the air in the room ripple as they tore apart to reveal the rooms to another location. Magic astounded him, making him crave the knowledge to be able to do that. Biting his lip, he determined to look into the possibilities. This City was opening so many doors...

"... yes. Of course..." His voice was distant to his own ears, mind still dazzled from the weaves of her power. She was an amazing woman. Powerful, smart, a mystery waiting to be unraveled. The only thing missing was the blood...

He smiled, pleased with their impromptu meeting and the promise of getting to know her better. Hagi would be healed, Saya overjoyed, his new little family strengthened from this whole experience. And the price he'd have to pay was trivial... something that he might normally have looked into on his own. What could be better?

"I should have it perhaps as soon as tonight. And... Lady Basene, thank you. I'm eternally grateful."

This meeting had turned out to be better than she'd thought it would be. She was quite pleased with herself for coming here.

"You're welcome, Solomon."

A sweet smile drew her lips upwards. It still stunned her that she had used enough of her power to destroy a human mind just to get him started with listening to her. Perhaps he wasn't human. It would be interesting to keep an eye on him. He could be very useful as time went on.

"Take care."

A nod and she gracefully turned and went through the gateway. It closed behind her in complete silence.
