Enki seems to ponder for a moment at Abduls question before speaking, a quick flash of light come across his face in a red glow Enki turns to look at Duccio and as the man speaks his seeming anger subsides into a devilish grin.

"Oh dear Duccio what manner of plan has entered your mind, I have some suspicions but I would enjoy hearing you say them."

Ludovico gazes at Hildr with a surprised look on his face, but quickly snaps back to reality.

"Kristophe, Leonarduccio, Abdul, it is a pleasure to make thy acquaintance. The mood has become quite sombre rather quickly, hasn't it? I've not heard of this Siegfried fellow. I assume he is associated with the Society of Leopold in some fashion?"

Hearing Enki's request, Ludovico adds "I am also interested in this plan of yours, Leonarduccio. Perhaps it will give me a sense of just how serious a situation we are in."

Enki stands up and walks over to Ludovico and extending a hand speaks.

"I am Enki Koldun of Clan Tzimiscie, long have I been impressed by your clans scholarly pursuits. Perhaps once the more pressing matters are taken care of in the city we could arrange a discussion and pick each others brains."

Ludovico gives Enki a firm handshake.

"Well met, Sir Enki. I look forward to conversing with you in a less perilous future." Speaking to everyone, "As for the matter at hand, I would help thee in thy search for thine brethren, should you provide me with some details about them."

Enki glances over at Abdul and nods.

"Finn is a valuable member of this court and a dear friend we should go forth and look for her. I volunteer to assist Warden."

Enki straightens his posture and looks at one of his bodyguards. "Would you go fetch my equipment, someone may have decided to use this fire to cover a more heinous crime. I would rather be over cautions, plus with the inquisition around best we limit the use of any of our gifts."

*A man enters wearing a silver mask topped with what looks to be the silver leaves of a crown. The mask has a dark black cloth studded with flecks of silver scattered across it, twinkling like stars in the sky. It covers everything from the nose down and seems to attach to the hood on a plain brown monks clothing. The faint smell of cooked meat permeates the air.*

"Apologies for my quiet departure, I have noticed my injuries unsettle many who look at them so I went to purchase a mask to help me move around without drawing too much suspicion"

Enki hands Giovanni a card "I can often be found at this address for academic discussion."

He turns to look at Henry and studies him for a moment before speaking "Master Harpy injuries are a sign of victory over final death they should never be viewed as unsettling. That being said I am very skilled in reforming the body into any image one desires If you would like I can attempt to fix or correct them as you see fit."

*Looking to Enki*

"I would be remiss to refuse assistance. When time is available I would appreciate it very much"

"Well seeing as we have a rough idea of who has not been found, give me a short time and I will see if I can narrow the search. As to the inquisitor and his allies, again I may be able to help somewhat though that is less my area of expertise." With that Kristophe gives a bow and leaves the manor.

Enki hands Henry a Card "Where I can be found when you are available."

"I shall go fetch my armor and hound Warden and then join the search when you call upon me, until then you know where to find me."

Enki Heads to the door as he does he stops to speak to Hildr "You stay here and alert me if anything of note happens, it is a good lesson to get used to the court and observe how it proceeds."

Kristophe returns after a short while, juggling a few small black stones that seem to have bits of blood still on them, as he whistles softly to himself. He catches the stones in his hands before turning to Abdul. "Well some information is more clear than others, as ever is the way. Godfrey is safe enough within his haven, if he was injured he is simply healing, otherwise most likely he has chosen to remain to himself at the time. Our friend Aserymus is off looking for his sire, which likely means he has currently left the city or is just unavailable, either way I think it likely he is fine. Of two Salubri, Ilza is within their haven space I believe, a temple of some sort though I cannot say I've been there myself. If someone knows where to normally locate them it would ease that search. Finn however is more troubling."

Kristophe stops for a moment and closes his eyes, before speaking in a lower tone than normal as if repeating something that has been told and memorized. "The three eyed warrior is surrounded by many eyes, deep beneath the earth." He then returns to his normal stance and voice before continuing, "My first guess is that she has found her way to the sewers and that which lies beneath. Whether it is of her choice or she was taken there however remains to be seen."

*Henry nods to Enki*

"I have a couple more matters to deal with and then I shall be available."

*Turning to Torstan*

"When the Prince is available I need speak with them again. It is of matters less troubling this time"

Enki reenters court a short while later, following behind him is a rather tall figure standing nearly 8 feet tall their features are obscured by a loak, what you can see is small horns on their head and skin appearing to be made of stone. Enki says with an authoritative tone.

"This is Cybele of Clan Tzimisice, they have already been acknowledged by the Prince and now there presence is made know. Thank You."

Enki wanders of to his usual seat with the new arrival and sits down to observe the court.
