>>>>>[Once again, my dear, I must concur with your analysis. I choose
option
three as well. Might I suggest the patch of land immediately beyond Amelia's
abode? The T'Hoth most likely don't know Amelia, and I happen to by privvy to
information that the area is an abandoned Grove. It seems the membership in
that area became too small, and the hermetics have been removed, but it would
be "neutral" territory nonetheless.

As for what I found in Amelia's library, it's most fascinating. It seems that
not even the Drui can perform blood magicks without tapping the ley. That may
account for why there's little to none practiced any longer. The local
authorities, while _very_ respectful of the white-robed ones, become rather
agitated when the magicks of the land are disturbed.

However, due to a rather cunning negotiation many years ago by L'yenthel's
predecessor, blood and sex magicks are allowed the Drui, and I quote "once in a
blue moon." Rather intriguing, don't you think, as there will, indeed, be a
blue moon later this month. The Drui are given a two-week window either side of
the actual occurrence, but prefer to wait until the exact night. That would be
two weeks from Tuesday. If we can stall for a day or so, we just might be able
to work out an arrangement with the Groves to have a bit of _support_ during
our negotiations. I have broached this subject ever so delicately with the
powers that be, and they have suggested agreement, if, and only if, Amelia,
Ragman, and I will agree to enter their Circle with them. Amelia and I have
agreed, but we must obtain both the approval of the crew and the acquiescence
of The Ragman for this proposal to come to fruition. We could move as early as
Tuesday if all are in agreement.

Just in case all are in accord with this idea, I must now return to Amelia to
begin final preparations for entrance into the Circle. Ragman, if you are so
inclined, your presence will also be required. Please inform me immediately of
your decision.]<<<<<
