*I nod to Scatty*
Chafes a lot less too, plus it's much faster to get on and off.
*to Aoife*
Well, we're calling Odin to ask him if, one he knows where my mother is, two why she would go talk to Atlas. Plus he's my great uncle.

*Scatty smirks as Aoife's eyebrows shoot up and her eyes bug out*
Aoife: Great Uncle!? Who are you?!
Scatty: Apparently Freyja has a daughter
*Aoife looks between Scatty and Freyja again and mutters*
Aoife: More and more being born... Dria and Morgan, then Mia and Reinhardt's son, now Freyja has a daughter...
*She looks at Freya again*
Aoife How old are you?

I turned twenty six last week, although apparently my age will be relatively irrelevant now given how long we apparently live

*Aoife nods*
Aoife: Mm-hmm... so young too... 4 Elders born inside a century, that's not happened since Danu Talis.
*She shakes her head in amazement*
Aoife: Well.. I wish you luck. I hope whatever you're talking to Odin about goes well

*I sigh heavily*
So do I....

*Scatty nods*
Scatty: Speaking of which... let's go Freya. I borrowed a Scrying Stone from Thoth. It's in my room so we can go and make the call. When you're ready

*I nod to Scatty*
Let's get this show on the road.
*I begin following her*

*Rachel retains her frown.*
Rachel: You.. know my parents? ...

*Wade nods*
DP: Yep. Was there when ya hatched and everything. Course, you were a bit smaller back then.

*Scatty leads Freya to her room*
Scatty: Have a seat and we can get started
*She nods to the bed, on a folding chair next to it rests a large smooth glassy stone*
*Scatty sits crosslegged on the bed and places the palm of her hand flat against the stone, using her smokey gray aura and activating it*
*The stone shimmers a rainbow of colors before a fuzzy image appears. It clears to show a older man sitting on a throne petting a wolf*
*He's clad like the typical Odin representation except he wears no helmet and his thick gray bear and hair along with his eyepatch help to make him look a little like a gruff viking santa*'
Odin: Scatach? What is the meaning of this?
*He seems more curious than annoyed*


*Horus goes to work and Iris sits in the main room*


*Dria's getting really into For Valor*

*I take a deep breath and step forward into view*
Hello Odin. I asked Scatach to help me get in contact with you so I could ask you a question. My mother Freyja left me on Earth when I was little, and mentioned going to see another Elder named Atlas before she left. That was twenty years ago, have you seen her since then? Or would you know why she went to see him?

*Odin blinks*
Odin: Your mother. Freyja. Your mothe- WHAT?!
*He leans forwards in interest as his face lights up*
Odin: Freyja, my niece, has a daughter?

Rachel: I do not remember my father ever talk about you? When I was incubating, and I don't remember you when I hatched..

*I nod*
I came into this world twenty six years ago my lord. I only just learned about what I actually am, I've spent my whole life thinking I'm human.

*Odin waves away the Lord bit*
Odin: Oh no, none of that among family. You shall call me Uncle, or Uncle Odin. None of that Lord or Sir business.
*He leans back and strokes his beard*
Odin: Raised by Humani eh? Odd... I don't know why that would be...
*He thinks a moment further as Scatty leans aside to let Freya fill the frame*
Odin: Well to answer your questions, I've not seen my niece in at least 300 years, and I've no idea why she'd go see The Bearer of the Heavens. I assume you're trying to find her then?


*Iris walks into the kitchen to grab a cuppa, smiles at Gharn, then pauses at Rachel and Deadpool*
Iris: I- Wait, what? Rachel? What's happened to you?

*I nod*
Yes my..... Uncle. I want to know who my sire is, since I'm a full-blood, and I wish to know why I was left to be raised by others.

*Odin strokes his beard thoughtfully*
Odin: I don't know who your father might be... I kept out of Freyja's affairs with that, as it was none of my concern, that said, I'll help you how I can. If you're looking for Atlas then I'd start with the Olympus realm. That's where he was last I'd heard. You'll need help though. Scatach!
*Scatty pops her head back into frame for Odin*
Scatty: Yes Allfather?
Odin: Scatach, will you help...
*He frowns then looks at Freya again*
Odin: You've not told me your name Child.

*I blush*
I'm named after my mother, uncle. She named me Freya

*Odin nods*
Odin: Well then Freya... Scathach, will you help my Grandniece to find her mother?
*Scatty nods at once*
Scatty: Of course.
*Odin smiles and nods*
Odin: Good! Good! That is good.. well, when do you think you shall depart? I'd very much like it if on your trip you could find the time to stop by.

*Maggie wipes her tears away*

*She holds Flagg*

Maggie: W-why would she run...

I was thinking of leaving in a few days time so I could have plenty of time to prepare myself for the trip and get all the equipment that I might need

*Rachel looks over at Iris and waves.*
Rachel: Hello.. I am Rachel.
*She smiles.*
Rachel: I've grown more.

---
*Flagg shakes his head, thinking of what to say.*
Flagg: She.. was frightened is all. Then that monster sent her further away.. It's okay my love.
*He sighs with discontent.*

*Scatty nods as does Odin*
Odin: Good plan.
Scatty: Yes. And Freya, if you'll let me, I'll help you.
*Odin nods his approval*
Odin: Aye. I'll see what I can dig up on your mother, and possible father

'
*Gharn skirts around the group and goes to the sofas*


*Iris nods mutely*
Iris: You.. grew? Just how old are you? I thought you were 16 or 17 yesterday but...?

*I nod back*
I'd appreciate the help.
*I nod to Odin*
Thank you uncle, I appreciate the help

*Odin nods*
Odin: You are family, of course I will help. That's what family does
*Scatty winces at this and turns away*
*Odin notices and sighs slightly then smiles at Freya*
Odin: Well I'll leave you to your preparations for now. But I'd enjoy talking with your further another time.

*I fail to notice the wince*
*I smile*
I'd like that too Uncle.

*Wade giggles*
DP: Magic. But it ain't my place to say. At least, I don't wanna say right now. So, how you been, Rache'?

*Rachel shrugs.*
Rachel: I do not know.. I feel older though, and well I have... gained weight in certain areas..
*Looks at her breast with mild confusion, then looks over at Dp.*
Rachel: I am... okay. How are you?

*Iris nods*
Iris: I can see that. Do you want some proper clothes?


Odin: Alright, I'll get looking. Scathach, take care of my niece
*Scatty nods*
Scatty: I will
Odin: Excellent. Goodbye to the both of you!
*The scrystone cuts out*

*Wade grins again*
DP: I've been great. Been around, shooting gak and stuff. Y'know, livin' the life.
*nods to Iris*
DP: Hey sweet cheeks.
