Where: Supernatural Conclave & Gala

When: Part 2

The subtle murmurs start rising up over the crowd but the message is clear.

“Fia Palmgren has been murdered”

Ha-Jeong started weaving through the crowd the moment alarm had even threatened to start being whispered about. But the pace quickens the moment murder is mentioned.

It isn’t long before she catches sight of a familiar red dress. She catches Eleanor by the elbow and pulls her gently around to look at her for inspection.

Once assured there is nothing out of place that Eleanor didn’t cause herself, Ha-Jeong drops the arm.

“Have you heard about the leader of Wrymwood?” she says, still quietly assessing.

The corners of Thera’s mouth kicked up as she floated to take a place next to the blonde at the standing bar she had come to occupy. Thera let her elbow graze the vampiress’s “So we meet again, Friend. Have you come prepared with my box?”
