       Homecoming
       By: Amaris Date: February 1, 2018, 7:55 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Amaris made her way from the monastery to her door with no
       troubles. The night was mild but humid, heavy with the smell of
       rain to come. Upon arriving home she was greeted by several of
       her Sire's people, each one a work of his divine art.  As he had
       said, everything was almost as if she had never gone. The rooms
       were aired out and freshly cleaned, the larder stocked, the
       garden maintained, even the stables were in order.
       With no domestic worries at hand she retired to her chamber and
       called Gavri'el to her. He appeared, obedient as always, and
       awaited her orders. While he stood a solid foot shorter than
       Gesu, she had painstakingly sculpted his face into a replica of
       her beloved Sires.  She motioned for him to come closer and he
       moved to stand beside the low chair she was seated in. He rolled
       up a sleeve and offered her his arm. She smiled up at him as her
       teeth sank into the soft, fragrant flesh. He was the only one
       she fed from in the traditional way - her tongue would not give
       her what she needed most from him.
       She drank slowly, pausing between each small sip, her eyes
       locked on his face ... the vision of her Sire in ecstasy above
       her ...  She continued until a soft moan escaped his quivering
       lips then gently licked the wound before standing and leading
       him to the bed. She guided him onto the bed then lay beside him
       stroking his hair til he drifted off to sleep. She would stay
       there until her time to sleep unless disturbed.

       *he had been asleep a good hour before she slightly heard some
       of her Sires servants seemingly shooing. Away someone from the
       houe*
       Was enough to share no more to handout
       *words she heard feint through her door*

       She slid quietly from the bed and slipped out the chamber door.
       To the first servant she spotted she half- whispered,
       "You, girl, what is all the commotion I hear?"

       *she bowed deeply*
       Sorry to have disturbed you My Lady,  Since the Fire in the
       Latin Quarter  there have been more people in need with the same
       limit on foods to hand out

       Her brows crinkled and a look of perplexity settled on her face.
       Was this girl saying a limit had been set on charity?
       "There is a limit on helping those in need?

       If we give all today we will have none for those that arrive
       tomorrow my Lady
       *Head still bowed averting eye contact*
       we have only so much available. . .
       *her tone was apologetic and concerned*

       She nodded and patted the girls shoulder in a feigned act of
       being comforting.
       "I have been away, I was unaware things had gotten this bad. So
       first, some questions. How many come each day? What are we
       giving them and how much each day?..."
       Then she paused before adding,
       "Are others helping or do they only come here?"
       She was, after all, in the market for new servants of her
       own...and some new 'canvasses'....

       *the pat seemed to comfort her*
       between 40 and 100 persons a day we give them acouple laves of
       bread some Dried Fish and Wine. . .some others are but not many
       so the burden has fallen more to us in recent days.
       *Amaris could see about a dozen bodies walking away after the
       door was closed some seemingly walking well others more slowly*

       She nodded and smiled.
       "Well, we must see what we can do to get more help, and to help
       more..."
       She watched the ones not walking so well...
       "Tell me, girl, what ails the ones who lag behind? Were they too
       late for food or does something else hold them back so?"

       Sick or Lame Lady Amarisa, we do help them usually more but too
       many tonight to give them extra
       Do you wish me to stop them or something else?
